Wow, Marisol here, back after a short hiatus to work on a new tutorial. It’s been a busy few days here for me, and I am tired! I’ve been working on the tutorials and studying for my psychology final and tying up some loose ends with things. I have great news: I got an A on my psychology paper! Psychology is one of my worst subjects, and I’ve never done well in it–until now! It takes me to get an A now. Yay! That makes me happy.

Alex and I also updated our “About Us” page; we’ve added images of ourselves. Also, please send a warm welcome to Tala, our newest member to the Sketching House family! Tala was suppose to be with us to begin with, but work and school come first. She will be contributing shortly and her profile will be posted in the About Us section in a few days.

Okay, as I have mentioned, I created a new tutorial. After a long wait, I finished the third part of the Photomashing tutorial and the Photomashed outline drawing, so now, after you reach the end of this, you can forget how long and monotonous this tutorial was. I’m kidding, I hope you don’t forget because many of the techniques you learn here can be transferred to other projects. So, without further ado, Photomashing Part Three: Coloring!

My semester is officially over! Now all I need to do is take my two finals for my psychology and English classes, then I will sit and wait patiently for my grades. I’m so TIRED from this semester; I’m so glad it’s over finally. Time for Christmas! Woo!

Today, Alex and I went to Dunkin Donuts for coffee before we went to our Literary Study class. While we were there, we were greeted by a guy dressed as a pig. The pig made Alex and I laugh, then we found out that the pig was part of a dance troupe that dresses like animals in order to encourage young people to stay in school and get an education. I really hope they succeed in their mission and that they’re around next year, because Alex and I were planning on hiring the animals to entertain one of our professors! *Giggles.* Click to read more …
