Month: April 2016

I dreamed that I was getting mugged and actually fell off of the bed when the big guy shoved me.

Owww ow ow ow

What is with my dreams/nightmares lately? Geez…

askashapeshifter replied to your photoset:We went to the Microsoft store and the Apple store…

That is the best kind of date. Who bought what?

The only thing we bought was dinner! We went to the Microsoft store primarily so Aaron could try the virtual reality thing, and I played with the surface pros while I waited around, which was really fun.

Then we went to the apple store so I could try the ipad pros.

Since, y’know, I’m hoping to get a screen-drawing tablet soon! I think what we’re going to end up doing is getting the ipad pro and then saving up, slowly, to get a wacom later on.

Artist’s Temporary Decaying Art Brings Enchantment To The Forest

British sculptor Andy Goldsworthy is known for his phenomenal and temporary, installations which involve using natural elements, ranging from sticks, stones, leaves and twigs and anything that grows out of the earth. Sharing a special connection with the land ,which he celebrates in all his sculptures, Goldsworthy shows the world that nature cannot be contained, but only its beauty can be held on a canvas for precious few moments before the land recalls what it once grew.

OH MAN OH MAN ON MAN. I HAVE TO LAUGH EVERYTIME ANDY GOLDWORTHY POPS UP IN MY PRESENCE. I enjoy his art don’t get me wrong. Nice beautiful thoughtful stuff. BUT MY FRIEND AND I HAD TO DO A REPORT ON HIM IN HIGH SCHOOL AND MANAGED TO CONVINCE THE ENTIRE CLASS HE WAS THE NATURE ARTIST EQUIVALENT OF JACK THE RIPPER.

Is this like the time I convinced my entire sociology class that Harry Potter was super evil dangerous witchcraft in our debate segment?

also people should keep in mind that sometimes when an artist says “doodle” what they mean is “stress-free art”. that doesn’t necessarily mean that the “doodle” they made is something that they didn’t work hard at or didn’t spend a long time on. some people get really out of control when they see impressive works and the artist write “just a doodle” and they think, this is it, this is the end, im no longer going to be an artist, how can i possibly compare myself.

sometimes “just a doodle” means “not working on commissions or something work-based”, so don’t fret yourselves. plus not everyone who posts art plans on a bunch of people seeing it. you don’t really expect your stupid poorly written artist caption to be seen by a lot of people via reblogs,

I met another graphic designer on the train ride home today, because he was watching me draw and came over to talk. It was awesome. He showed me his ipad and caricature drawings and they were REALLY GOOD. 

And then I debated ipad pro vs wacom cintiq companion 2 all the way home. 

IDK the former is less expensive but the latter is more versatile so ??? 

Either way, I still need to learn how to draw people well. No amount of cool gear will fix that!
