As you may have noticed, I've randomly started painting.

true story!

=O

I don't really relate to that old ninja avatar anymore, I only had it cus It's was a spraypainted stencil and I was sick of ye olde one. This new one is my vael logo, a cartoony ish version of me I suppose, kinda classic looking. I liek!

Well, 9 weeks down and I'm on my 2 week break! It's dumb how the next term is 5 weeks, very UN balanced I say.
Going thro a lot of emotitonal crap right now, so seeing a FREE counsellor through a class I'm doing.
I'm not very in touch with my emotions so I need wise old people I can talk to. I have roughly 5 people over 45 I talk to fairly often, my Pastor being the main one.
I'm quite blessed I think.

Bit dry on the people my age front, but thats a whole other bag of fish.

God's upto something.

Well my last semester is well under way, and I'm balancing things out alright. Study is goin just fine and I've resigned to not stress at all about it this Semester, which will make it WAY better! Worrying is ultimately pointless.

Got a couple art comms to do for friends, for actual $$ too! I can't really afford to do things for free of late. Still not heaps social lately, but I'm really not into thinking about that anymore.

Got one possibility for next year which is nice, as opposed to this EMPTY VOID of possibility. The vael journals continue to DRILL into my soul. Where will it lead? No one noes!

Woo! Finally made use of the gallery folders. Now there is order to my little universe! Categorizing made me wanna do more Skink Town stuff, maybe I will!

Right now I'm mainly excited about my new "comic type" project. I want to express myself more through my art and I think this is a great way to do it, it's kind of like a journal, but an allegory in a different world. It'll be weird but good I hope. I mainly want my OWN project to be the motivation to do stuff, not to improve or to do stuff for other people. The ideas are coming thick and fast so it's pretty exciting. I want to enjoy it so I don't get all hard on myself and BURN OUT!
I need to redefine what is "good" and why...with myself.
_{(you'll see teh results one day)}

As for my LIFE in general? Well my 6 week holidays are almost over! I'm ready to go back
My 3 weeks in Tasmania were swell as always, a much needed time to reflect and just space out. I actually feel better upon my return, well...more focused and positive. I was getting into a bit of a rut I realised.

Well, better gets on with my comms!
DISCIPLINE!

Anyone know what its like to be paralyzed by choice?
Happens to me a lot when I sit down at the comp or my sketchbook...
Woe be tide those who don't have the luxury of a fancy shmancy "class"
to have "teachers" make them into great artists. No, some of us actually have to have discipline! Ok I'm not bitter...

Anyhoo, things are ok overall. In a bit of a "cocoon" stage where I don't feel like doing much, but soon I shall burst forth into something more social and active.
(God, hurry up) No, God may seem "slow" but he is darn thorough.
I am just trying to stay in the present, everyday is it's own.

Foodland is randomly stocking cans of Dr Pepper and Root Beer!
that makes me glad
