The last few days have been such a whirlwind! Wednesday we set up for the Illustration 2013 grad show.
Thursday was the opening night for the Grad Show! It was incredible! Apparently we had around 800 people show up. The place was packed. I spent the night hanging around near my board so I could talk to people who were interested in my work. I got a lot of great comments and quite a few questions and I was happy to answer all of them. By the end of the night I was so tired. I’m glad I stayed in the Gladstone hotel rather than trying to commute back to Hamilton that night. The next day we had a wrap up class before the show opened on Friday. It was a great pep talk and reassurance that this grad show doesn’t mean the end, its just a beginning.
Friday was the final night of the grad show. That was the day when all my family and friends who couldn’t make it on the Thursday came. I feel so blessed to have so much support and I was so happy to see everyone.
Now it’s summer and I have to start finding jobs. I’m really excited for the opportunities that may arise from the show and I’m excited to see what happens next! Congratulations to all the 2013 illustration graduates! We did it!
