I posted a new painting on my deviant account. http://hybridfaerie.deviantart.com/art/Santa-Underpainting-114579419 hybridfaerie.deviantart.com/art/Santa-Underpainting-114579419</a>. my father works as a santa and I had this project to do for my class, so i did a portrait of him. I'll be going over it in oils pretty soon, so i'll have the color version posted hopefully by next sunday. I also have a fangorn landscape in the works with a treebeard study i want to post soon. And then their is the frog prince book dummy that i'll be working on for my childrens illustration class. but for now i'm content to sit on the couch adn watch the lord of the rings and i'll probably have to go up and help my mom with dinner because she can some how freeze in a house thats 74 degreees...

i'm not sure how i should feel right now. I turned in 7 different pieces for the student show last week. I found out yesterday that only one piece got into the show, and its a piece i really had no opinion on. Its a pastel portrait and i dont particularly like it. So, all that i gain from this is that the artwork that i dont like, or things i dont like to do will be what people like or want. So if anyone else runs into this or has had this happened please tell e what you've done to get over this particular set back....And yes it is a setback because for me, this means i will be doing art in styles and such i just dont want to do....And i think what hurts the most is that my pen and ink, and a watercolor piece i created did not make it in. I've been interested into doing comics for a couple years and i know i'm still a novice but man, that has set me back a bit. I'm not sure i want do anymore art this week for my classes...in fact i'm really tempted to stay home and do my own artwork and not worry about my school work, because obviously what i do for school will only bring me somewhere in a 1 and 7 art piece.

Also when i got to work today my front liscense plate was on securley and when i left work the right side had been broken off so it hung at an odd angle. in other words one of the parents parked in such a way they broke my liscense plate holder which makes me really mad because they didn't bother to leave a note or stop and come back in and say hey. I had to tape it to my front bumper and drive home on back roads just to insure it wouldn't fall all the way off.

and i'm gonna hafta go bra shopping soon because all of mine have decided to break....


I'll type later, right now i know i'm heading into one of my moods and sleep is my best option.
