Snowed under!

Barely time to come up for air! Although I think I'm gradually beating Macs into submission. It would be so much easier just to go for the PCs at Uni, but that wouldn't be a challenge. Fine Art's hard too, have to be experimental, not just drawing a picture, have to come up with something untried, philosophical & probably un-do-able too! Our theme was "Traces" so I did a collage of traces left by natural things when they change, so deep space pictures from soon after the Big Bang, fossils, seed pods & a spider's web full of midges, but the end result compared to everyone else was a bit boring! The tutor suggested exploring one element, so 'fossils' in plaster of paris, jelly, chocolate & sugarpaste, the last with traces of taste&smell too in the form of powdered spices.
Textiles next week, would it be too much to hope for something a bit more familiar?
