Frustrated.
As I’m working on the sketches for my Chinese Gods/Goddesses/Spirits lithography project, I’m just getting flustered. I’m trying to push myself to draw/sketch from memory and imagination but it’s not really working. I think I just need to take a step back and gather more information and references to work on each piece.
So far, I have two done (printed and posted!) and 3 more sketches that … I guess looks alright.
For the group project, I started out working on a more abstraction look/feel because I’m just in love with the textures and reticulations that tusche creates. AND also, those textures are kind of on all my pieces, so I thought it would be cool to just have make one from just the textures. Although I do have another idea for the group project. It’s due this Thursday BUT I think I can do it!
As of right now, I’m working on a linocut because I found myself just buying … and buying … and buying lino-blocks.
Getting back to work now! I’ll post the Huli Jing (fox spirit) lithograph later tonight :).
It will only get worse.
I need someone to talk to … I’m just slowly breaking down. >.>
This is all I want right now … :(.

I can’t draw faces or bodies … :(

This has been a super boring Spring Break. -___-
I’m done.
I come to you and tell you my plans after Davis, because I respect that you could take me serious for what I want to do with my life. But all you really did was make a joke about my life. One day you don’t say much but seem intrigued by the idea of the new school that I want to attend after Davis, and then the next you don’t want me to go. Why is it that through all of this, you still think I’m a child and you’re just waiting for me to make my next mistake. My biggest mistake was even approaching you. Telling you about my plans.
All that’s happened ever since was you belittling me. Making me feel unwanted. If you really don’t want me here, WHY DO YOU INSIST for me to come back?! So you can save face? But in reality all you do is embarrass me. You don’t tell someone one thing and then change your mind the next minute.
Make up your mind.
