some drawings

From our last night with K@rl. I heart that man! I love his sentiment towards academia in art. I can relate to a lot of it, and I think that there is a need for people like him who teach in the way they do. I may take a trip this weekend but I'm not 100 percent sure yet. In any case, my next big trip is coming up. I also plan to (in the next five years) visit Rome, but I think that I should focus on getting as good as I can and learning about sculpture from my prof as much as I can before heading over there. I've known many people who have been to a place and have just breezed through, because they couldn't appreciate the culture and history of the place (what's the point then, right?). A few years ago, I went with a group to Morocco and they were just looking for a nice fancy hotel and C0ca C0la, which is unfortunate. If only they could appreciate the sacred nature and geometry of the mosques over there, which is tied to religion, culture, history. So I don't want to be like that, and I swore to myself that I would never travel like that ever again.
