Imaginism Workshop: Happy Endings and Farewells

Today was the last day of the one month Imaginism Workshop in Montreal. It's hard to believe how fast a month can go buy and how much  information can be stuffed into your brain during that month. Not only did I gain new artistic skills, but also knowledge of the industry, perspectives on character design, a new sense of appeal, a caffeine addiction, and what feels like 15 pounds. Damn you ,Thierry and your burgers. Damn you.

Oh, and new friends from all over and all that jazz too.

We decided to take a break from painting (not really), and go visit Old Montreal. We drew passers by for a while in front of the Basilica.

Rita, Tao, and Paul in front of the Basilica Fountain.

The Basilica

All in all, old Montreal is a really cool place. We didn't get a chance to explore even a fraction off it either; it's so big! I hope to come back some time.

There were also some awesome Street Performers.

And these guys

When we got back, T and I had an epic discussion about character design and concept art the pretty much melted my brain. The fallout was that I had to entirely rework my onion character to the extent that I started from the Initial Study phase all over again. If you're going to do it,  do it right. Right?
