Hello Loves,

I'm happy so many of you enjoyed the tutorial in the last journal. I'll do more of them... if you don't mind. Suggestions? Something I haven't already done? I quite enjoy doing tutorials and walk-throughs. I began drawing anime purely from tutorials on the internet so I understand needing good resources, and I am elated when I'm able to provide you with something that you can use or something that explains things in a simple but applicable way. I think, one must dissolve things into their simplest parts and pull them together, making them easy to relate to in order to teach well. And, breaking things into their pieces is very interesting to me.

I'm sorry I'm not very fastidious when it comes to answering comments. i mean no harm. It seems I'm much more popular than when I last checked or something. Also, I tend to like to visit you all's pages when you fav, comment, watch me, and such. I go through your galleries, look through your journals, favs. So yeah, I'm aware of you all whom fav/comment often, and I know how your artwork is progressing... I wish I had more time to do more of that T___T I took a general assessment of my miscellaneous messages... why have so many people watched me in the last day or so? It's much more than my usual fave to watch ratio.

The past days have been great. I've gotten to just hang out with my friend Yue. I never get to hang out with my friends... I want to go to the movies with her so badly, and watch Forbidden Kingdom. Jackie Chan isn't my favorite... he does too many comedies for me(I like my martial arts serious) but he's awesome with props... I love Jet Li. Period..... Semicolon. Question Mark.

I'm listening to the Mariah Carey's new CD E=MC^2... I don't know what the E stands for. I get the MC part as being her initials.... maybe the squared part means that if squared herself(which I also don't understand) she would result in a being of pure energy. O.o Though technically the C is the only variable squared so it would only be the Carey part of herself..... Also the song Apologize by OneRepublic... I love the song but it really annoys me when it gets to the part about 'their love burning red and now it's blue' or something or other like that. LOL, blue flames are MORE intense than red flames. Silly OneRepublic... XD

I need to practice more on my guitar.... and decorate it. I think I'm going to go over it with acrylic and clear gesso paint the great wave over it. I'm in love with Ukiyo-e. I really enjoy Hokusai's ideas about art. It gives his work even more depth for me.

I will never have to take an art history class ever again. I'm done with classes. I'm quite elated. I think though that I may just sit in an art history class and just listen. I like learning about art history without having to memorize facts. Facts are nothing. It's the meaning of artwork, the ideas expressed by it, which concerns me. If I was ever famous, after I died, I would infinitely prefer for my audience to remember the feeling they received through my artwork rather than to remember the date of it or my name.

I don't think I want to do Graphic Design. I know it's my major and I do enjoy the ideas which I get from learning, but man, I enjoy drawing so much more. The thing is, I chose Graphic Design because I didn't feel that I was going to learn anything more from Drawing. I know that sounds arrogant, but the way I perceive the drawing/painting department, they sort of let you do whatever avenue of artwork you want, encouraging you to experiment. Well, I'm going to be drawing on my own anyway. I draw all the time. And I'm always testing new techniques. I don't really need to take classes on what I'm already doing. That's lame lame lame.

I'm going to practice the guitar now. Guitar, you will be pwned. Like jewelry before the rent is due. *shakes fist*

Remember Folks, I believe in you. You equal win.

Pretending to be Cool

P.S. I'm thinking of starting a new account for more experimental things--colored things mostly... which I don't quite feel inclined to uploading here. I think my artwork sort of caters to certain things which I'm not sure this new stuff is concerned with. I'll tell you all the address of said account if I decide to start it.
