I can’t help it. I’m a teacher. I have been for a very long time. It’s not surprising then that a focus on learning should be central to my MFA practice-based research.
I am forcing myself to learn new things. Restricting my palette. Already I am wishing I had stayed with the known. But what would be the fun in that?
Soon, peer tutors will teach me what they know about their favourite printmaking techniques.
And in anticipation, today I am playing with my son’s images. Working with photographs taken during a recent ‘cull’ of three file boxes of work by the forever-drawing youth.
It is making me miss him terribly.
