Description
In the seventh circle of Hell in Dante's Inferno lies the Forest of Suicides. They can only speak when someone breaks off a branch. And only then while the wound bleeds. Usually it's only the harpies scratching them up, but on this day Virgil leads Dante through the circle.Ink - brush pen and ballpoint pen.

cant wait to see future works. I really enjoy observing my friends and their improvements and also their phases. Do you want to name this phase? What would it be?

I think I'll name it "Bernie."
I've actually done more work on this one, so I'll upload it at some point when I have time. I have art 101 Wed. and Mon. so that's keeping me busy.

Bernie sounds great, and kind of funny 
Who is your art teacher? I think you should figure drawing class too, it is really fun !

No meaning for Bernie. It's completely random.
I have Kate Kretz as an instructor. Apparently she was hired fairly late in the game. The class is OK - mainly it's the practice that's helping, plus the occasional person over the shoulder saying, "You need to darken these bits here and better define that part over there."

Bernie sounds randomly good, i would call my car Bernie
U dont really get to do too much at ar 101, but its a good practice with the objects and portraits. I wish i had somebody over my shoulder too, i did quite well tho. Which hours you have the class? im at school on Mondays and wednesdays 5-745 pm only.

I'm also Mondays and Wednesdays, though from 7:00 to 9:40. What are you taking? I'm guessing that you're just about finished up there after this, right? I'll probably take a semester off and then do figure drawing.

We are at school almost around the same time. I am almost done, I only need to take Ma101 and 110, and Im taking 101 and Russian 101 this semester. Russian is not a requirement for my major but i want to learn it anyways.
You should stop by to our place sometime and see the peeps with your own eyes. u you cant see the details on pics, in real they are hilarious. I laugh hard every time i see it. So funny

Turkish coffee is one of the few kinds of coffee I like. That would be cool if we can get the times to work out.
