Congrats. I went back to school late in life and after a BA and and MA--and consider that decision one of the best I ever made!

I quit school two weeks before my A Level finals (Gr 12 equiv) to 'run away' to Paris for six months, and never made it back to school. Don't really regret the paths I took, but envy this new opportunity opening up for you and admire your willingness to take on new challenges.

You’re right! The good stretch of the daily share yields stuff I don’t think you would get to if there wasn’t the instructional pressure to post.

And THANKS for the kind comments (and likes and shares) it all makes a difference. I’m really enjoying learning how to use Procreate, that default video feature is such a bonus. If you have an IPad Nikki, it’s so worth the $10 to get Procreate…

Congratulations! And I think that your drawings are really cool.

Wow and congrats, Nikki. I went back to school later and quite loved it. Except for the fact that I was writing position papers that I would normally have been paid big bucks for. Enjoy, enjoy! What faculty? (I clearly haven't read through the whole post if you mentioned it there.)

Oh my goodness!

CONGRATULATIONS

So exciting. WELL DONE!

Love this review post...

And YES I think it does change how we make art if we post whilst doing. I think it can be a really good way to stretch yourself and to get over jitters about sharing - the flip side is, I think that driver to always be posting can take the focus off the art... I’ve found sometimes I’m making stuff to post without it necessarily immediately connecting to the ongoing project... But, maybe that’s not a bad thing... 🤷🏻‍♀️ who knows?!
