Day #101: Sketches

August 25, 2011

I've been doing sketches for my friends from theatre camp that are made up entirely of inside jokes. It's a lot of fun.

Day #98: Doodling

August 22, 2011

Boring day. I got new sticky notes though. I have a superb plan for them, I just need to find the right person to carry my plan out with. I can doodle by myself, though:)

Day #84: Sketchy Stuff

August 8, 2011

I've been sketching like crazy since being home. It's a little ridiculous how much time I actually spend doing it.  Especially on this day I made six sketches. I haven't finished all of them, though. I go a little out of order with that sort of thing. But I figure, it's my sketch book, and artist do weird things, so why shouldn't I jump around like I want to? Sounds good.

Day #48: Painting in the Sun

July 3, 2011

I came home from church and decided to paint outside on my back porch in the sun. I've been experimenting with a new painting style, which are the larger pieces. I use more painting and don't use any pen to outline and have lyrics that have been inspiring to me on them. A few of them have people, as well, which I don't even paint those parts. Then I did a smaller sketch which is more like the ones I usually do.

Day #9: Sleep

May 25, 2011

Also not a stellar day. But it was at least a half day. I came home, slept, slept, watched Hello Dolly, and then avoided how unprepared I was for my algebra 2 quiz from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang all last week. {I have this quote and these comics above my bed.}

So some of my Chitty friends were talking about dreams and how to be able to realize you are dreaming so you can control your dream. They said that if you see a sign, memorize what it says, look away, and if you look back and one of the letters is different then you're dreaming. Well, that kinda happened while I was sleeping, I had already kind of realized I was dreaming when I saw a sign, looked away, looked back and it wasn't there. Then I thought to myself, "I already know I'm dreaming.." Then I did a bunch of cool stuff, which doesn't last very long for me until I'm too awake for it to work anymore. I can tell I'm waking up too much when people start becoming too short or too tall or proportions are screwy without me being able to fix them. And when I stop being able to really see faces and I can't feel it when someone touches me or I touch someone else. 

It was fun being able to do anything, though. In a way I was still dreaming because it wasn't until a few hours later that I was like, "Hey! My friends were right!" Then it was super weird, like those dreams that are so real you wake up and things just feel awkward for the rest of the day.
