because.

Here is a start up of my unhappy bride

blurp

I'm beginning to realize that my posts are pretty boring. All I ever do is complain and whine about how unhappy I am. Or I'll make these lists of random stupid things to do. Unfortunately, that is how I spend my time with writing. In complain mode.

Maybe I should only write when I do have something to say.

Having said all this, I will now discuss my holiday plans. I must make Christmas cards for all the students. Buy little gifts for my friends and the teachers. Having no "original" ideas for a gift I will either look online or go to soho for these treats. My last expensive gift $$$ wasn't very much liked much to my disappointment. Rather it was criticized and returned. So. I guess my talent for getting gifts is limited. Or maybe it was just that one particular person. Probably the later.

However, despite previous failures I will be getting chocolates. Primarily the "No Chewing Allowed" chocolates for the teachers and Alyssa.

Asian Music Video (Parody)

I want to make an asian music parody with a fusion of western culture.
Things to include when making this...
-love triangle
-several deaths
-blindness/maiming
-evil ex girlfriend
-betrayal
-zombies

I think this would make an excellent asian music video.

some randome progress...

Well this is my rendition of Ruby Slippers, Golden Tears. I thought it sounded super artsy but now I realize I did not create something that would live up to the name. An alright sketch, but I see too many flaws to continue it. I'll just use this one as a motivation for another version I'll make. Just thought to present it though.
Oh Dad, why can't you just be proud of your transportation challenged daughter so she can stop stressing about things? My monkey king is very boring.

:P

Hello Internet.

I don't know why it's so hard. But its hard for me. It's freaking hard! It appears that since graduating from Carnegie Mellon a mere six months ago I have completely forgotten the fine crafted art of STUDYING!

I really need to pass my driver's knowledge test tomorrow, but all I can think of is doodling and creating masterpieces that I probably won't because as soon as I start on them I'll get bored and wander to other things....

sigh. I wish I were more focused and not so easily distracted. I know I keep saying I need discipline, but that's all I've done. Said things. And the actions that I have kept my word to are really just stalling methods. Like this for example.

Someone once posed a question to an artist I admire. "Do you have to be a good person to be a good artist?" At first I read it and thought it was silly. But then I thought about it. A lot of people who others admire are humble nice sweet and quietly talented people. I'm not sure I fall into that category. I know I'm a bit too silly for anyone to really take me seriously. And I know that's because I don't take myself seriously. For one thing, my head is full of silly thoughts and want of a fun time. I think I'm just afraid I have nothing to give...

Okay. Well as I have let out my frustrations I will get to it!

Thanksgiving is upon us!

Dear Blog,

I wonder if it is really necessary for Thanksgiving in my family. Just saying its going to be awkward. I don't really mind, but I wish we could be like those family members me and my dad sometimes see at restaurants. All together, talking, laughing...the whole enchilada.

Well, I suppose this Thanksgiving will be no different. Although it will give me a chance to accomplish some things that I have not had time to do.

1. Paint my room green!
2. Rearrange my room (someone once told me that someone's room tells a lot about the person. So far my room is very cramped and cluttered) Time to shove all the furniture to the walls and leave some open space in the middle. What would that say about me?
3. Go shopping for clothes. Currently I am living on one pair of skinny jeans because my other jeans are "unprofessional" says dad. Well guess its time to get slacks and skirts! Throw in some shirts and whatnot I mean it is Black Friday!

I suppose no art related topics are up for this weekend as I am very busy relaxing and buying.

Movies to watch while relaxing: Little Mermaid, Bambi, Pinocchio, Dumbo, Cinderella, Swiss Family Robinson...I think that's all. Any other suggestions?

Food to make: Turkey (i have no control over this) pasta of angel hair zucchini and creamy tomato sauce, mashed potatoes, and maybe something else.

Alcohol to drink: wine and vodka.

Some Pictures...Finally

Well I realized I've been complaining a lot lately...or just rambling on about life stuff. So I thought I'd actually post some work I'd done a few months ago. Of course some are "incomplete" because I lost interest, but I thought I might as well get some stuff up while I'm remembering it.


This one here is my Wizard of Oz. I actually finished this one. Though a bit generic, I'm still pretty happy about it.

And of course, my elephant. Barfing up sweets is the way to go! I finished this one, much to my own chagrin.
Here is one I did for a character contest on conceptart. Of course I didn't finish...but this is one that I almost finished, so up it goes.
