Tonight I attended DUNE, in its return after a hiatus, to live, in person group form. It was held at The Hugo House in Capitol Hill and I am very glad I went. I believe this was the 86th Dune meetup and with me being graduating class of 1986 I guess it's some sort of kismet? Attendees were given four hours to create a piece of artwork and while I was at work today, I pondered what I might do. I had a rough idea but on the lightrail train to the event, I realized that it was pretty awful and wound up walking in to the Hugo House with no plan. It was cold today and once I got inside and seated, the warmth inside and the comfort of my chair after a busy day on my feet made me feel pretty sleepy. I sat staring at my paper for several minutes and then the idea popped into my head:
Well, I'm doing it. I'm heading back to the gallery classroom at Willard (formerly Tsuga) for another round of beginning cartooning sessions. I'm pumped! I'm also going to be on ZOOM on Wednesdays now that I have a laptop with enough juice to do it. |
