Just saying hi

It seems as if a lot of my old blogging buddies have moved on from blogging to other adventures. And so did I. Real life took over. 

However during the last months, while I contemplated my life and my life's goals I realized how much I've missed to blog, to share my thoughts and art with the world. So I've decided to come back. 

Copyright-San's-Visual-Art,  Pfalz, Germany Fall 2012

A few weeks back I took a drawing workshop for designers at the Leipzig School of Design, which was amazing. My teacher T. recommended a book on visual principles, which you can only order at the library of a certain design school in Halle/Saale. And the book offers a lot of exercises to get a handle on those principles. I've decided to do those exercises and even to learn to carve in plaster. 

Why? Because I need to create something touchable to balance my work, which is mainly virtual. And damn I want some fancy 60s style sculptures for my apartment without breaking the bank. 

Anyway, getting my plaster workshop together will take a few months, since the tools aren't exactly cheap and I first want to see if I can snag a few from my fathers workshop. Until then it is photography and drawings. Which is more than I did for a long time. Now where did I put my cameras? (Just kidding!)

So, what have you been up to?

Eddie Adams Workshop - my dream goal

The Eddie Adams Workshop is one of the most intense photography workshops worldwide and it's tuition free. So next year, I'll apply.

I could apply for this year but there are two reasons why I won't.

1. I don't have a Portfolio. (Will build that in this year. However does one do that?)

2. The travel expenses. I simply don't have the money for it at the moment.

So, this is my goal for the next year. Get into that Workshop.

And now excuse me, I gotta go shoot. Hahaha, have to wait till this darned project management class ends for today.
