art class and inappropriate a cappella

So, tonight was my four-hour art class. It was better than usual, I was really productive and spent a nice long time on my composition. We were doing a still-life of some creepy, bedraggled, naked, charcoal-smudged baby dolls. I chose to do a close-up of a particularly creepy baby doll, and I spent a long time getting down the proportions and making the lines nice and clean. I was relatively happy with my progress, until my professor pointed out that the angle of the torso was wrong, and suggested I erase most of the torso and the entire head and re-work them. That was the first time I ever cried over a drawing. But in the end it was a better drawing, and I think it's one of the better things I've done in that class.

And then on the way home, there was a group of guys singing a beautiful a cappella version of "Fuck Her Gently" by Tenacious D. Which totally made my night.
