Yesterday, the portrait show came down, and there to help me was a former student, Godiva, who wanted to "shadow" me for the day for a school assignment. She is a very talented young lady, with wonderful artistic ability, and she wants to pursue a career in art. She will be attending either Washington Univ. or USC next fall, and is trying to decided between the two. ! - Not a bad choice to make, I'd say, either would be excellent !
We spent the day taking down the art, and then chatting over tea about the countless possibilities in the field of art. She is not interested in teaching, but rather combining her art with Medicine in some way, or possibly business. Lots of "food for thought" that can seem daunting when you are finishing High School and looking ahead to all the choices !!
We were joined by my daughter, Tracey, who echoed lots of my thoughts about getting started as an artist in the community, and then we took off for lunch !- Well, eating always goes so well with visiting !!! Anyway, we all had a fun time, and hopefully were a bit of help to Godiva....
Good luck to you, looking to the future ! Such a darling girl, and such an exellent student, you will surely be a success at whatever you choose !
