Rediscovering

Last night was a long one. Photoshop class, with along side some Sketchbook session. I also rediscovered Shawn Barber again after a leave of absence on my part. I forgot what is was like to paint for myself, than for work. Shawn did that and I thank one of my friends for introducing me to him. Thanks Frankie. Now I have a head of buzzing ideas and so little time to get them down on paper or canvas for myself and everyone.

Flabbergasted

I've been in a hiding place for a small time period. Doing research and reading. The past week has been a little rough but I have been productive. I've been taking down ideas and planning a few projects to do for the spring and summer. I'm excited for the work and ideas I have coming up and creating.

Bam!

Just now.

Assassins creed fan art!

I did the first two (on the left) last night after watching the trailer reveal of Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag. The other this morning. More coming.

Ideas

I find myself building new ideas everyday. The hard part is keeping them long enough to write down. Then flushing out everyone of them. This I find is the best part of being a creative person. I will never run out of ideas, only space to write on paper. So when people ask, " where do you get our ideas from?" My repsonse will be "the Id" lol.

Realization

So I've come to the realization that I can work and do what I enjoy at the same time. Yes, I did not to long ago. But really, not in the way you think either. I know the pathways needed, I know what is needed for thoses paths, and I know what must become of me in the process. Today was a day of reflecting and opening. But know I need to settle on what my future holds for me.

Time to think.

So if you have time, knock your internet out for a day. See what becomes you.

Me, today- no internet. So I'm going to have coffee and do some editing. Then I will make some food and art.

I've been without internet and cable for almost 2 years. I learned that my mind was capable of "many a thing" for the sake of my humanity.

I dare you to try the same.

Writing

In the process of writing I've learned to calm the mind. It is true that it takes a few paragraphs, or pages to get in to the mode. But I find it very calming. Even after a few hours have passed, I feel accomplished in myself. Then I go to the artwork. Lol.
