I’ve got it all (most)

Oh, make me over

I haven’t been doing self-portraits nearly as often as I used to. I’m mostly just sick of looking at myself. I think I need someone to give me a makeover haha. … I want to be more fashionable. Learn how to properly apply make-up. Et cetera. Other aesthetic things I hope to do in the future: get a half-sleeve tattoo on my left arm. (I’ve been daydreaming about this for years, but still have not decided what exactly I would like to get.) & I want to let my blonde hair grow out & then dip-dye it. (Dirty blonde & mermaid-princess blue/green would be lovely, I reckon.)




Nice things

Just for fun, Chadu made that koala image (above) for me. Because I heart koalas & “Omg hi” is kind of my catchphrase lol ♥ Playing card games with my family ♥ Forcing myself to make art every day again. (I love having these little creative challenges for myself.) ♥ Listening to the awesome mix cd that Chadu made for me. ♥ Chocolate fudge cake ♥ Mr. Show with Bob and David ♥ Watching Spaced with commentary. (Did you know that the American dvd release features commentaries by: Kevin Smith, Matt Stone, Diablo Cody, Patton Oswalt, Bill Hader, and Quentin Tarantino? That is a major collection of awesome.) ♥ & Some good blogs that I’ve come across recently:

Cosmic Crumbles – A tumblr that is great for fashion inspiration. Lots of lovely, vibrant photos.

Jennifer Dziura – Go read her blog. She writes intelligent, informative, & witty articles. I admire this lady’s ambition immensely. She does it all!

End of March – I love her art & everything about her, really.

P.S. I’m always looking for new blogs to read. If you have a blog, please feel free to leave me a comment & say ‘ello! If I love your website lots, I will mention it on my blog in a future entry.


365 days of print

Favourite songs at the moment

As I mentioned, Chadu made me an awesome mix cd recently. Here are just a few of my most favourite songs from the mix.


Fountains of Wayne – Sink to the Bottom

David Bowie – Ziggy Stardust

The Rapture – Echoes

Pavement – Type Slowly

Morphine – Murder for the Money

Sink to the bottom with you

‘Ello! It feels like forever since I’ve posted a blog. Though, it hasn’t been quite that long, I reckon. Just wanted to let you know that I’m slacking slightly due to a few things going on in my life right now. First thing, I’ve undergone a major change in my life recently, which I’m not quite ready to share with the internet yet. (But soon!)

& The other thing currently occupying my time is – I was one of ten artists chosen to participate in 365 Days of Print for the month of April. It’s a project where we create one new piece of art every day. Any medium. The only rule is that it must involve, or be inspired by, the newspaper.

I still have yet to create a piece for today. But here is what I’ve done for the past three days:
