Blog of the week this month is Rob’s Learning Blog. It is one of the first illustration learning logs I have seen – the course was only introduced this year, but has has exceeded expectations in terms of enrolments. I was struck not just by the quality of the drawing but also by the effort is putting into the research for his course. Enjoy.
‘has exceeded expectations in terms of enrolments’, I was hesitating between 2 courses. Marion from About.com Painting suggested that I looked at Rob’s learning blog – and that made my decision easier. I’ve been on the Illustration course with OCA since September. Thanks Rob or is it Bert?.
(On a less positive note, I would love to find a place on the website with a list of other illustration students blogs – there is probably something (I think I came across it once), but did not find it again when I looked for it. I think we would all benefit from something simple available for simple people like me!)

I don’t think this suggestion is less positive – far from it – it will feature in the student site shortly. The old list was kept up to date by a volunteer student. Paul Vincent is working on an aggregator that will assemble the list from student profiles.
