FINALLY...

Well now... school is FINALLY over.

Well, almost. I have one more final - ceramics - tomorrow, and then I'll be finished with school for the next two years.

Which means my social life will SPLAT on the ground, but the good part is that my ART will SOAR, lol. Hopefully this break means a lot of painting, and painting, and painting, and painting. All that I can fit in before my mission for the LDS church.

So, watch carefully these next few months for updates, and for a new 2013 tab as I get some stuff done.

Friends, I can't wait - this is going to be awesome.

Also, enjoy:

Strokes of Inspiration

Sometimes, a random stroke of inspiration hits.

For, me, those inspirations are so rare that no matter the strangeness or oddness of them, I have to paint them.

This is probably one of those times. It happened yesterday, and since then I have developed these highly symbolic self-portraits. And, no, I'm not emo or goth, I don't cut, and I'm not depressed. Just if you were wondering ;)

They are just a different style than I normally do, but describe a certain mood and worry about certain things that I don't feel a need to explain. They are my first self-portraits, and thought they were a great outlet and allowed some good reflection time.

I found them very interesting and fulfilling to complete, although they did not turn out exactly as pictured. That's okay, though. That's the beauty of watercolor. It does its thing.

Enjoy something different :)
