Description First of six illustrations for a class I don't like. They are all circus themed, and this is my clown.
The clown is a clown fish (duh)...
The juggler is an octopus...
The contortionist is a sea snake, all twisted into a knot...
The lion tamer is a lion fish, and he tames a tiger shark...
The trick rider is half shrimp and rides a seahorse...
And the ringmaster is a stingray.

Stay tuned.

XD I've heard he's been doing that. I guess that fact that he didn't like ME didn't carry over into not using my art for show and tell.

he absolutely hates me too. I am pretty sure he hates just about everybody. On the first project I ask him if it's ok to have prelims in the dropbox and he says ok and then marks me off for not having prelims... Sooooo I say I can print them out really quick to which he says OK. When I come back with a neat pile of my printed prelims everybody is GONE from the classroom. (it is only 30 mins into class). Apparently he took the entire class by vehicle to Alexander hall and just didn't want to tell me about it. He didn't forget because he said "oh i looked for you by the xerox machine. sorry." Because everybody can print things from their dropboxes on the xerox machine.

Also he arbitrarily marks down your when critiques go perfectly. We don't get along.

And yet he gave marshmallow-soft critiques. They were utterly lame. They were more like group therapy. ("Now let's all say something positive!" Am I right?) And yet he was such a dick. And to Alexander hall no less! Yeah, he was always a jerk to me. I once needed his signature on something, so I came in during one of his other classes. They were in the middle of him showing them examples on the wall, so I waited quietly by the door. A couple people had looked around when I entered, and he saw me, but no one was disturbed. Then, after about a minute, he acts like I'm the impatient one and says "What, what is it you want?" And I replied, "Oh, I just needed a signature." He waves at me all angry and dismissive, "No. No. You must come back after class is over. You need to go now."

Jerk.

But it just goes to show, even when he's a jerk, he might save your stuff for posterity.

yeah well I am just glad this class is ending soon. I have to do that stupid interview thing that he told us nearly nothing about. Not looking forward to it. I have no idea what questions to ask.

Ask what environment helps them to work best. Or what gets them motivated or inspired when they're not. Or what they like to draw the most/least. Just imagine you happened to sit next to them on the subway and you found out they were a professional and wanted to know what it's like and how they got there. You'll be fine. Good luck!

Yeah, there's just some kind of feeling it gives off that evokes emotion when you look at it. It's really cool. I loved all the other pieces in this collection, too. Great job, again. 8D

This is nothing short of pure, pure awesomeness! ^_^ The undersea-clown looks very friendly; I would like to meet her or see her when the undersea-circus comes sometime. XD

Also, she has some resemblance to Sadie from Across The Universe! Yay!

Aww, you used the gills as her ears!

Which not only makes her head look more humanoid, but is also accurate since the same set of bones used for our ears are used by fish for their gills...

And I'm a sucker for details like that, so this rocks.
