Is it wrong that now I want to go back to art school, live in a 19th century 2-bedroom garden apartment for which I pay pennies, and change my name to Nickels Ogelthorpe?? BECAUSE I DO.

I wish I could have heard the panel! My best friend and I stayed with a SCAD friend on our cross-country roadtrip last year and I too was tempted to stay put and explore my artistic side. So so charming!

ReplyDeleteSo great of you to post the students' work. You and your blog make me laugh a lot. Thanks!

ReplyDeleteNew York will always be waiting for you when you want to head back...

ReplyDeleteThat's the next stage of my hair-evolution. Although I don't have your ears and it might be a big mistake.
Great post...I always get a kick out of them...if your Nickels Ogelthorpe then I'll be Davis Trumpeldorf...ha
ReplyDeleteActually, upon further Google-image-search, we have the same ears - YAY! I can pull off your haircut!
ReplyDeleteAnd we kind of look similar, just generally.
