Lula Girl

I think my personal style has changed a lot over the past few months. Well, no. It hasn't changed so much as I've been "exercising my right to express myself through the medium of fashion" to put it in the most pseudo-revolutionary and/or self-empowering-sounding way possible! haha
So, taking a tip from kantieb0, I think I may start drawing(/photographing?) my outfits and such...as I love them all so dearly.
...Does that make me sound shallow?? I don't mean to.. I'm not really... Hmm... Oh well, who cares! It means more art. Surely that's a good thing. All stigmas can be forgotten! HUZZAH!

And I suspect having now found Lula shall only exacerbate the problem...
What can I say? I like fashion. It's true :|

Reading

I need to do more reading for my Literature Review (which is basically dissertation practice for me as I plan to carry on the subject I'm doing for my Literature Review into my dissertation). I tend get midway through books and then stop reading no matter how interesting the book is. I don't know why. I have at least (literally!!) 10 or so books I need finish... I always get around to it eventually, though..
(Speaking of, there are also a few more books I want to start...so maybe I should finish some books before adding to the list of unfinished ones...)

Alice night

Been working on posters for an Alice night. Overall not too pleased to be honest. I tend to like my sketches more than my finished work, but even more so recently it seems. I may upload more of the sketches later; but here's one I turned straight into a poster proposal.

postcards!

Well, I got postcards of four selected works printed. How does £2ea. sound? :)

Okay! I know it's been a while and I said that I'd have something to post last week... Well I did have something to post last week (this information about postcards!), but I just never got around to taking pictures and posting... Delinquent, I know! But I'm doing okay if I post at least once every month, right? It could be like the monthly post or something. So, really, I'm pretty on the ball! haha, nono, I'll keep it together and post more regularly.. I just have to get my act together.. get myself to a scanner.. take more photos... do more CG...
Basically, I have to just do!

I'm workin' on it! ;)

not much to say yet

Okay, first week back complete! I've been reluctant to post any entries as I have nothing to post! I have no pictures, no photos and nothing to say. For this, I sincerely apologise. I can, however, promise you that there shall be things to come shortly (possibly as soon as next week).

In other - non-art-related - news, I bought myself a lovely (but expensive) dress. Its loveliness shall distract me from the price tag...(oh dear!). I don't do things like that often, though. And I'll make up for it by not buying anything else for a while so I figure it's okay.
But I can't say it was exactly an "impulse buy"! I'd been eyein' it up since June and pining for it all summer...hoping against hope that it would be there when I returned and be one of the pieces affected by the "70%off sale" that was going on storewide.. Seriously! Why is it the thing you want most is almost always immune to the sale tags!?? Criminal.

Anyway, these things are far less interesting to you than to me and far more suited to my personal journal than my art blog so I shall be off now and leave you to ponder the goodies I have in store for you in the form of ideas and (at this point, undrawn) pictures! Oouulaa!

Plotting...huhuhu

I started this a few days ago, but I don't think I'll be finishing it any time soon.. It was mostly just a relaxing painting exercise anyway.I have some plans for this year.. I still have to wrap up some of yesteryear's dealings, but I've got plans.



Also, my 12 year old brother catches wild snakes...with his bare hands!
