Student again...

Hiya

Here's my course update. For those that don't know I started my Cert IV Foundation Course in Interior Design at the end of last year. I was so excited to get into it and then I moved house...and it was Christmas...and I was away so it's been a slow start but still good. All in all I am loving it. I found it alot more challenging to start with than I thought I would. Getting the hang of art lingo and not having a class with students or a teacher to run ideas off was hard. I spent a lot of time worrying I wasn't doing something right etc but I'm starting to feel more confident. I am nearly finished my first module and so excited to send that away and get feedback...hopefully of the encouraging kind! 

I really had no idea what to expect not having had any background in this area but I have learnt so much already especially about colour...there has been ALOT of painting and I've almost used up my paint already...with 5 more modules to go!!! Will just have to order more.

I am doing the course through ISCD www.iscd.edu.au here is a little of their blurb.

New Year Catchup

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE...a little late but still heartfelt!

Hope you all had a lovely and blessed festive season with your loved ones. Mine couldn't have been better. I had so much special time with family and friends, really incredible weather and just lots of general holiday down time. I am still yet to do my course update...which has been taking ALL my spare time but it is going well (even if challenging at times) and I cannot wait to do a post about it!

For now here's some pics to sum up my sum...mer.
