My cousin lived in Australia for a few years and loved it there. I live in the desert of Nevada not too far from Las Vegas.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11148578712066406362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8408549007773252702.post-15713307217926857062009-05-25T11:35:53.556+10:002009-05-25T11:35:53.556+10:00Hi Marcella.

Yes I did study Visual Art at University as a mature age student, but at the end of the first year they told me that I should follow another subject within the Arts degree so I followed through with photography. Though there was some dissagreement between the lecturers/tutors I don't think I was 'Arty' enough - if you get my meaning. I then went on to get my diploma in education in art. I taught in high schools for a couple of years as a casual/supply teacher and spent most of my couple of teaching years teaching technical drawing and wood work. Then I realised that there was a total lack of disciplin in schools since I went to school so decided it wasn't what I really should be doing anyhow. I must admit I preferred teaching the boys (very few girls did tech drawing and wood work at that stage) to teaching the girls in other subjects, including painting.Marcellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17452700583387232923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8408549007773252702.post-21028374678053704322009-05-25T06:51:05.230+10:002009-05-25T06:51:05.230+10:00You are incredibly good.
