Opened up.

I thought paying for this thing would make me do it more! Dammit! Oh well... I haven't had a hugely creative few months, been up and down and over and out and taking a step back to think about things, think about what I want.

I started university [finally] a month or so ago. Been doing oil painting for the first time ever...love it..love the way you can work and work and work at it til perfection. I'm still getting used to it but when I've caught up with some stuff that I NEED to be doing, I'm going to start a few oil on canvas to play around in my own time, which I'm super enthusiastic about. I bought photoshop...well... photoshop elements (I'm poor!) so at least I can fiddle around with my photo's better...and a laptop, which is infinately better than the computer I had been using! (you had to stroke it gently and coax it into being helpful for half an hour after each click on photo editing).

A trip to the midlands resulted in a spinning wheel, so yet again, craft has been taking a priority over art! It's great fun though, and I'm hoping to link the two in some point, and it's made my corchet headbands nicer so I'm getting some christmas cash... (maybe I should put some on here)... it's not just crochet, but felting and beading and..etc.

I've moved into a flat so I'm been busy trying to beg borrow and steal furniture for it, finally got me a massive desk last week so hopefully lots more drawing shall take place!

At the moment clay is happening, as is expressive drawing. I feel completely opened up artistically, and excited about what can be acheived.
