The art of sitting still

One added bonus of this job...besides the need to assert myself more and the fact that I'm in Hawaii...the schedule is fairly light and I can arrange my own hours. As a result, I an free up time in the afternoon when, lets say the art department calls in need of a model.

Three hours of zen...

So far the university is the only place I've found in search of models. I don't know of many private studios. But given how popular the arts scene is here, they have to be out there. Although....particularly with First Fridays....I'm not sure I'm ready to have my person displayed all over the island...considering how small it really is. And how distinctive the tattoo is...

The class is a nice change of pace from what I'm used to though...an oil painting class that's part of the master's program. So older students. And students who are serious about their studies, and not just there to fulfill a requirement. And a painter's class of course means longer poses.

That reminds me...First Friday is this weekend already...I've been here for over two months...
