Artlings!

Badabooooom here is some arts. I'm working on something as I type this, and it's actually relatively finished looking! Hooray for meee!

Return to school...

Okay so today was my first day back, and let me tell you it's only heightened my hatred for that place. Boroughmuir truly is the armpit of education. How to start the problems, apart from the numerous teacher issues....

What they have been calling a "dress code" has now turned into a full blown uniform as I thought it would, but they still insist on it being a dress code rather than a uniform. Come on people, there's no need to dance around the issue. We KNOW it's a uniform, please don't patronise us. I also love how it's their number one concern, that and their grade percentages. It's sickening! An utter disgrace!

But that brings me to a fairly positive point. I have applied to Stevenson College to start an animation and graphic design course. If I get a place there, it means I won't ever have to return to that place and I'll be ever closer to my dream.

However, I am also still awaiting news of my application to GASP!, but I do know if I don't get contacted by this coming Tuesday I know I haven't secured myself an interview. Fingers crossed eh?

I figure I should spam post some art for you guys, I'm feeling generous and I don't think I'll be able to post as often as I'd like in the coming term. So enjoy what I am offering you this evening!

Now I must warn you this is quite a post art wise, I’m clearing out my folder so there’s a LOT of unfinished stuff for ya!

Strange things.

Blogs are said to be places where you write/type your feelings am I right? I have a hard time doing this through paranoia of someone reading it so I will keep it simple. As you may be aware my moods have been very...Varied through the last few blogs, on and off down spells and such.

Well, as it was said by one of my closest friends, "Hey! Maybe you've finally fallen for someone! Love does that to people." now at the time I didn't think much of the idea and completely dismissed it. After all it doesn't suit my personality at all. But after a few days of thinking and pondering it became clear that to my horror this indeed was the case. And so, I've been sickeningly giddy and high on life for a good few weeks now. To the point of me giggling and smiling for no reason and prancing around like a moron. I feel happy but I also feel like I'm being a big idiot in regards to my actions. I feel very very silly.

I suppose I can use the description I gave to my friend! I have butterflies in my stomach yet I have a large vexed expression and deny all my feelings to anyone who even tries to ask. "I hate everyone!" Usually being the one that surfaces.

But jeez, does it feel special or what? The only ill side to it is the lack of sleep I've been getting as of lately. I'm so very very tired right now, I've fallen asleep on the chair twice! Ah well, my amigos have decided to give me a deadline from telling the guy. Deadline being the right word too.... Heh, I think my feelings will not be returned but I only really face rejection, nothing else. I'm not afraid of such things. I just hope he stays my friend.

As for the art work, a little play with the smudge tool again on sketcher created this abomination below. Please enjoy!

Freedom!

So I've officially finished off all of my exams! My last one was at 1 PM this-..Well yesterday, afternoon. As you can probably guess I'm up at a crazy time over here in the UK, doodling my little heart out as my inspiration flows back to me. Been making up a few random critters with that scribble technique and definitely got a load of laughs from doing so haha. I've been told the purple dino-thing is a big favourite on the sketcher.

Sketcher 2 testing!

The new version of the online applet sketcher is up and available to test out if you're a member of the site. I couldn't resist popping in and checking out the amazing new settings for the brushes! There are still a few bugs to it but I have to say, Thor's done an amazing job with it. it has the ability to save six brushes per user and has a grand total of 5 available layers to draw on. But I'm sure you will find out all about it later, haha.

What better a thing to draw then a disco dancing monkey to celebrate such fun and interesting brushes? Enjoy!
