My group won the class challenge today and won the prize. I have a new valuable thing.

A genuine artist's print of "Explorer's Dawn," an art piece commissioned to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. It's signed by Buzz Aldrin and the artist, who just happens to be Paul Hudson, my professor. Anyone curious to see what the print looks like, and also a photo of him signing it next to Buzz Aldrin, click here:

...Welcome to the man who teaches my Conceptual Illustration class.
He drew all that.

WHICH IS WHY WE WORSHIP HIM AS A GOD.


He's also a Merciful Art-God. Instead of building six maquettes this quarter, he and my Conceptual Maquette professor are allowing me to use one maquette (an imaginary creature) for both their classes. So just five, and I've already completed two.
That leaves Main Character and Environment for me to worry about.
I'm tempted to hook up the tent-train piece (Environment) to my rearing elephant-creature (Object, Vehicle, or Animal) for the presentation. And I could probably steal some sand for the base, too.

Mmm. Must remember to ask mom to bring the desert roses with her.

Well, I've stumbled into a bit of wonderful synchronicity here! As you may remember, all things "space" is my passion (that and Beatles!). I saw Buzz back in August. In fact, I had dinner with him and Dick Gordon and a few other astros in New York. Congrats on the win! The piece is beautiful! If you ever need a worthy donee ...
