------------------------------------------

I'm tired. didn't sleep at all last night... So this might be rather incoherent.
Sorry I haven't been about much. I've been busy, what can I say.


I've mentioned before, art is more than a pastime for me- it is pretty much everything to me. Something I have worked at as long as I can remember.
For a pathetically long time I put up with those around me thinking that my artistic tendencies were 'just a phase'- the only people who seemed to care about my art were my parents. I owe them a lot for all their support... Sitting here at my desk after another Christmas of canvas boards, pencils and reference books, I really want to show them it was worth their time and encouragement. I don't want others to think I'm wasting my time either- and I want to be able to get up every day and create things that I'm proud of.

I have a lot to learn if I want others to take me seriously, as my parents do. I already spend hours and hours every day drawing and painting, but unfortunately checking in on dA and commenting on art and journals takes time. Probably why I'm staggering off to bed at 4:30 on average this past week. So my appearances will probably be less frequent from now on.

Just to let you know, anyway.

-------------------------------------

------------------------------------------

So. 1:45am. I'm up late. Again.

Uh... I'm weeks behind on work for the art 'class' I go to. I'm sick of hearing the same fucking Christmas songs everywhere all the time.

So, brain fried and half blinded by all the staring at books and computers, I'm doodling random shits. Again.

I really need to do something more constructive with my time. But oh well.

[link] <--- Holy shit that art is good.

I've spent about two hours (it's 1:50am now you see) staring at it. You should stare at it too. Go! Shoo! What are you still reading this for?



...1:55am. I should go to bed now.

-------------------------------------

------------------------------------------

Angel just walked past my window. Seriously.

Well, a guy who looked a lot like him (but admittedly not as gorgeous) just walked past. I was all whoacamera but it was in the other room. Damn it.


Anyway I just thought I'd share that with you all. Have a good day


I have art but it's all for my current class project, so I'm not putting it up. Plus it's based on a PC game and I don't put fan art up where possible.

-------------------------------------

------------------------------------------

So.

I have a new muse. Yes.

He's a pain in the ass. Waits until I'm climbing into bed or something and then throws a shitload of ideas my way.

Now I won't say that this is wholly bad; after all, I need ideas, and they're very good ideas too.
But really, there's a time for inspiration and a time where it's just more like, 'Shut the fuck up you asshole, I'm trying to sleep.'

So after watching Never Mind the Buzzcocks, QI and Fawlty Towers (Farty Towels, according to the sign outside...) I'm exhausted but staying up to finish the art I'm working on.

He says his name is X. Which makes sense because the project I'm working on right now is called XI. I wondered where the name came from- must just have been a hint of what is to come.

In other news I still have this fucking cold. Two weeks now. I've got a horrible cough and it's even so bad that I've taken meds twice today.
Usually I try to avoid any kind of medicine but I would do Hell close to anything to stop the constant choking. I've coughed so hard I've pulled fucking muscles in my neck, I've lost my voice temporarily at times, and it fucking HURTS.

All I can do is hope it goes away. Cause it's hard to eat, sleep or concentrate when you feel this much like shit.




...Yeah bad day xD

-------------------------------------

If you're nice to others, good things will happen to you.
So they say.
What did I do then that was so horrible I got stuck with this awful fucking cold? D:
------------------------------------------
