Greetings! So it seems I haven't written anything here in a very long while... which is very unfortunate and hopefully this will change and I will be able to update this blog more frequently with my growing amount of freetime and willingness.
So the past year or so since I started this food-dedicated blog have been rough to say the least.
But, rough times have given me the greatest outlet which is, writing.
So no more "woe is me" talk, I will be re-dedicating this blog to all things-me. Everything I want to share or rant or anything will be present on this blog, from more recipes to pictures I fancy, to my weird dreams.
All that said, it is currently 10:24pm and Im half-way through with my homework (im a 2nd semester senior is it really necessary?) and I seem to be finding all methods of procrastination.
The topic for tonight will be this: what the hell do I paint??
Honestly, I work best under pressure, and the pressure is on now. I have 3 art projects to complete by next week for the honors art exhibit at my school. How will I pull this off? I do not know. Will I? Questionable. For now I have painted:
 This is a collage I did of the most interesting portrait I know of. 
Mary Katherine, I dont mind mentioning names when it comes to references. She is one of the most unique women I know. The materials I picked reflect her as a person. I chose glass for her face because of the variety of emotions she experiences. One moment she is happy, but a delicate happy, a kind of happy that can be shattered with one word. 
I chose chain for her hair; it reflects how beautiful her hair is. Each strand of her hair is like a separate piece of jewelery. She is strong and I can tell that through her golden locks of hair that have grown along with her self-empowerment. 


Try and guess. I bet you can't
This. Most people dont understand what the hell this is. In my mind this is completely clear. A finger touching the glass of a fish bowl; a fish looking at the imprint of a finger pressed against its home. 
I used to have a glow fish... and it looked like a robot. When I stared at it, all I saw were wires and clockwork. this piece is a representation of my relationship with this fish. I cant quite grasp the reality of the fish, hence the abstract colors. I am warm colors, the fish is cool colors, the water in the fish tank is a mix of both. 


This is my most recent painting. Cats in lights =adorable no matter what
My explanation? I like cats. They make me happy. I also like christmas lights. Its interesting how the two coincide to create something that looks a bit like a fantasy. 

So yea. I will be working on some more drawings/painting for the next few hours... Ill try to update soon!! Bye friends-
