"Squiggles: Excerpts from Nleimen's Journal"
1511.02.01
"Field Illustration for Scientists" takes a LOT of work. I was expecting all the sketches, of course. I was not expecting a fresh list of durable equipment each trimester, followed by ever-more-meticulous requirements for the sketches. Technical pencils. Magnifying glasses. A dissection kit for flowers.
Oh well, I can sell a pair of fawn Squiggle Mice. That should help cover the extra expense. Mom and Dad grumbled -- some of those tools really cost -- but at least the dissection kit and magnifying glasses will carry over to other science classes.
The flower festivals will give me plenty of opportunity to sketch flower parts. I told Vloroshaal about my current art class and now he wants to see one of my illustrations. I've put him off so far ... the idea makes me nervous. I guess I'll send him something after the festival, if anything looks good enough.
