Dearest Blog

It would appear that I have yet again neglected you. Happy Christmas.

It would also appear that Miki has gotten considerably better at this whole art thingo... which is nice. Because it IS about time

Stress

Yeah, so, my final art project is due in a week, yeah, that's right, a week. Yes, I have started and no, I'm not falling behind. However the amount of freaking stress this is putting me under is immense. I'm taking the time out to vent on this blog when I should be drawing.

I hate deadlines, I really do. With a passion. They take all the fun out of everything I enjoy. Namely art.

Up there is a picture that I drew a little while ago. I do quite like it, although the contrast could definately use some work. 

Oh drama... you make me sad...

Hey guys, wow, two posts... impressive. I was thinking a lot today (not healthy, I know...) but I was thinking about what I really want to do in the future, which is act. A lot of people would assume, from the way that I behave, that I'm a terrible actor with no self confidence, and while I won't claim that I am an amazing actor, I do really enjoy it. I want to be good enough at singing/dancing/acting to be able to get into some professional shows in the next five years. It would make me ridiculously happy. I know this is pretty sad coming from someone who can't even get into a highschool production, but it is the one thing I've wanted to do with my life since I was six (before then I wanted to be a cookie jar/paleantologist). I can teach myself how to do all of that stuff. Really, I can, I've taught myself through pretty much the entire human biology unit for 2a and 2b in about a term, and only by reading. And while I know acting requires more than just book-smart, I'm working on the whole teaching myself thing. I can sing reasonably within key, and I have a relatively good grasp of music (also self taught piano/guitar + one year of singing lessons) . AHHHH.... It is really exploding my mind right now. Dancing doesn't worry me too much, I'm flexible and did four years of ballroom, and I'm a fast learner. But the question I'm posing to myself is, am I good enough to be able to do this stuff?

So my question to the rest of the world is... should I continue to follow a career path that will not earn me a living, end in dissapointment 75% of the time but make me happy. Or should I do a science degree and live the rest of my life wishing that I had gotten off my arse and done some acting...

Quite a pathetic excuse for a blog...

I am really not very happy right now... I started this blog because I thought it was a good idea at the time, like, to post artwork and discuss my unbelievably exciting (sarcasm) life. Come to think of it, I don't quite know why I'm giving any poor, unfortunate readers an insight into my life. Pfft. What the hell anyway. So, about this interesting little illustration, it's my most recent piece and I'm not too thrilled with it. I've never been one to upload really 'cute' drawings, but here, have my attempt at one.

I quite like the colour scheme and the pose, I don't think there's anything seriously wrong with the anatomy. But I don't like it. She is a dragon-y thing for those of you that didn't guess. I think that maybe I should start more of this illustrative/conceptual stuff rather than focusing on realism.

I honestly don't know who this is aimed at because, quite frankly, I have no idea what the hell I'm doing. Rambling, I guess...

So, welcome to this little corner of the internet. My little corner of the internet MWAHAHA. And I apologise if anybody took the time to read this far. It was a total waste of two minutes....
