A couple of weeks ago I helped mixed media artist Julie Melone teach a drawing class during spring break to a bunch of super talented kids ages 13-17 at Mass Art during 'eXtreme Week' in Boston. It was pretty inspiring to see kids younger than the peers I had at College take drawing just as, if not more seriously than kids 5 years their superior doing the same exercises one does at a college level. My hope is that some of these tater tots continue on as they seem well on their way to graduating from class doodlers to serious art students. And believe me, the talent is there. Look out world.
