10 January 2011

The countdown has begun.  I’m so excited—I want to do art again!  I want to make things!  I WANT TO DRAW NAKED PEOPLE AGAIN!!!!!  I miss the charcoal smudge embedded into my fingertips.  I miss the bold lines, the curve of a woman’s leg, the squares of a man’s shoulder.  I miss seeing the negative spaces—they tell as much of a story as the positive ones.
I miss art.  I will do art again. 
I watched Despereaux tonight and I enjoyed it, but it was a little scattered.  That’s the problem with turning books into movies—you lose so much detail and coherency.  Maybe I just need to read the books.  It’s just like Harry Potter or, dare I say it, The Golden Compass (read: The Northern Lights).  I can’t think of that movie without launching myself headfirst into the inaccuracies of it, so I’ll leave it for another day.
For now, I need to focus on my financial aid applications!
