Teaching and art work.

When I started this blog I decided to writte at least two times a month. That hasn't happen at all. But it is now a good time to star it over.
After starting school again, I have been thinking about what will happen, in the near future, with my carreer as an artist. If I intend to focus on teaching, how would that affect my art.
I'm starting a two year program that focus on education. That is, I will be prepared to be a better teacher, I could work in the developement of curricula or into administrative work within the educational system.
More and more my work is related to education. The hours spent in a classroom are more, as well as the time spent before and after the class. Recently I have closed down my serigraphy studio, because I don't have the time required for a printing run. Painting has become harder for the same reazon: lack of time. What is left is drawing.
Although little prints where my first passion (mail stamps), drawing has been one that has lasted more. Drawing demands focus. It is possible to be drawing for hours, but it is also true that there are drawings that require short periods of time. I love drawing, so why not give it a chance.
After the scientific illustration workshop taken a few months ago, I rediscover drawing from nature. I have been looking into the work of botanical and wildlife illustrators and found some incredible body of work.
Why shouldn't I try to follow two passions from childhood? First, the love for nature, animals and the human body. Second, the love for drawing. Time will let me know what will happen. For the time being, I'll keep on drawing with love the ten thousand things with all my heart and a blade of grass as myself.
