I really enjoyed reading this post....very interesting.<br /><br />I was told I wouldn't ever be good enough to go to art school by an Art teacher who didn't like art very much and certainly didn't like teaching. I asked him for help to build a portfolio and that was the response he gave me...took me years to start drawing again!! <br /><br />I think my creativity came out in other areas...all my jobs have been in start ups and have involved creative ideas to overcome problems...<br /><br />C xCarolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12327016337976942530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-876862148358784705.post-45413535554845626992010-04-07T07:45:42.185+01:002010-04-07T07:45:42.185+01:00I came back for a second look.

There's always one teacher who is lovely though - June Davies in your case and Miss Valentine in mine. <br /><br />p.s. word veri is boyoFrench Fancy...https://www.blogger.com/profile/04941577892849157015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-876862148358784705.post-7614558336601555932010-04-06T21:19:26.720+01:002010-04-06T21:19:26.720+01:00Steve - many thanks.

Is it Howard Carter? It's ever such a high standard - please tell me you got an A grade or else there is no justice in the marking system.<br /><br />This post was a fine tribute to the tutors who have left their mark - and to your lovely sons. Isn't blogging wonderful - hopefully when they are old men they will still be able to access these pages of love.French Fancy...https://www.blogger.com/profile/04941577892849157015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-876862148358784705.post-63451191550834598112010-04-06T17:37:08.035+01:002010-04-06T17:37:08.035+01:00No smart comment.
