School's officially out as of yesterday! I don't know why I'm so happy about that as it seems unlikely I'll have time for any kind of holiday this summer. Not that I'm complaining that much, it does rock to be able to just paint all day long!

So I've officially started my diploma work - series of 20 or more finished paintings on a subject chosen by me to be shown on our final exhibition May 2010 - and so far so good. In theory I'd have the whole year to paint them so there'd be no rush. I just happened to go and fix myself an internship for next fall, which will seriously dig into my painting time. So I've agreed with my teachers to have 15 paintings ready before I start the internship.

I'm a bit intimidated by the schedule I've set for myself, but if you want something done, give it to someone who's busy, eh?

Also got some postcards done together with the other students for our exhibition that just ended yesterday. They sold a lot better then I was expecting, seems like I'll be recouping the cost of having them printed!

Now I really need to get back to painting.
