Rattles and Pacifiers

Thu Dec 17, 2009, 5:20 PM
  • Mood: Eager
  • Watching: NCIS
  • Drinking: Fruit Punch
Well the countdown begins toward the birth of my little boy, Hopefully he comes on New Years Day :party: like the doctors say. So we have his crib setup and his outfits are all ready to be hung up. We bought him baby books last night. Fairy Tales , legends and a few of Aesop's fables ! So reading to my belly last night I got inspired :lightbulb: to do some Nursery Rhyme pieces, maybe in a comic book style, I haven't decided yet :stupidme:. I am so busy with my little guy's arrival that I haven't actually sat down and gotten my head straight. Pregnancy weight really slows you down. I love sitting with my pastels and paints , doing my work with my bare hands . However the fatigue :surrender: has had me sleeping :sleepy: in most days. So i think my next pieces will have to be on the computer with the wacom tablet. It helps a lot speeds up the process of producing pieces but on the other side of the coin it doesn't have the same feel as a paint brush :evileye:.

Rainforest Series To Come!

  • Mood: Artistic
  • Drinking: Lemonade
Things have been a little shaky on the home front :ninjabattle:. Not sure where things will lead or what I will end up doing this time next year, except for being little baby Viridian's Mommy:floating:. However, to get my brain off the things that have brought me down I took a trip to the library :reading: this morning in search of inspiration! Well I found it , rummaging through the books I found one on the rainforest with tons of lovely photographs of animals and oddities from the forest floor. So I am going through right now and making up my mind which ones I think will look best in which media, most of them will most likely end up in a mixed media format. Well it gives me something to do and be excited about while I wait for my little guy to get here on New Years Day. !:w00t!:

Sun Lift

  • Mood: Delighted
  • Watching: Steve Harvey:Still Trippin'
  • Drinking: Cherry Coca Cola
Woke up this morning still feeling depressed :sniff: and to my surprise , Grandma :granny: invited me to join her on a trip to a picnic that was honoring her professor's retirement and a reunion of the multimedia graduates up to present. I felt thrilled and my mood lifted :floating: like a weight off my shoulders! :love: I ran into so many kind people and they each had such a positive glow. :D The weather was so bright out, it was really hot :sun: in my area but the sun rays made me feel so warm inside and the motivational speech Grandma gave me today along with it , just gave me the boost I needed again. I feel like my mind is clear and I am ready to tackle my goals and start my move forward to what I want in life. :trophy: I came up with my list of ideas on sticky notes, tomorrow will be the first day I start my plan to complete each idea. :reading: I think today is really going to change the style of my work and that excites me. :party:

3D Curiosity

I have been daydreaming about doing some random 3d pieces, maybe landscape to start out with more of a fantasy look. I am also thinking of faeries and mythological creatures as well. I just don't know where I will get the materials from at the moment. I also think about making backgrounds like in photography and taking pictures behind them sparkling fabrics and glitter, crystal and orbs. :heart:

Late Night

  • Drinking: Water
Baby is kicking up a storm as always, and I can't sleep. Part of me doesn't really want to sleep anyway :raincloud:.I have been on youtube making slideshows and that has allowed me to keep up with some of my creativity :painter: and people have been slowly responding to my youtube channel, Its mostly informational :work: and I will start working on some instructional :typerhappy: videos as well. This week is a new moon and that is always a wonderful start for brainstorming and rethinking plans in a new light :magnify: and do things differently, :jarkinajar: . So maybe i'll make myself a list of things to make new pieces out of and place sticky notes all over my wall . Maybe this time I will actually get these pictures out of my head and onto the canvas. :relaxed: yeah , that sounds like an idea, :idea: i'll just take down the stickies one day at a time and see what I get , but first I need to upload all the pieces I did toward the end of my last semester. I still have plenty of images that are trapped inside of my sketchbooks :woohoo:
