Over on Wordpress

The course didn't run after the first year so I'm only posting here now because I had to log in to leave a comment on my friend's blog.

Antony Gormley’s cutting-edge workspace

Antony Gormley takes us on a tour of his studio. Designed in collaboration with the architect David Chipperfield, this converted warehouse just north of King Cross manages to accommodate hanger-like rooms, where teams of assistants work on large-scale sculptures, with more intimate, personal spaces.

My lovely students :)

I know this term has been very hectic and there is still a lot of work that needs to be finished off. I would just like to say that those of you who come to every lesson have some really good work to show for all your effort. Those of you who miss loads of lessons - WE MISS YOU! I know it is easy to get behind and feel overwhelmed with all the work you have missed but I am here to help you work out a way of managing it. I hope to see you all tomorrow.
:)

I hope you have all managed to set up your own blog now.At the end of every lesson I will be asking you to spend a few minutes writing in your blog about;

• what you have been doing during the lesson,
• what you liked or disliked,
• what new things you've tried and
• what you'd like to do next.

Have a look at the new stuff up on OCLive ... and keep checking because more will be uploaded every week.
