| | neutral milk hotel - oh comely | ] | today was stressful. i woke up at 7:30, started my focused inquiry draft, went to art history, finished the draft, printed it out, went to focused inquiry, ran home, and worked on my self portait for surface until 6.
i burned my index finger with a glue gun. there was a big blister. you know how when you use a glue gun, you sometimes have to peel the glue off your fingers? well, i was doing that, and i didn't realize it, but i was trying to pull off the blister that had already formed. so now, it's even bigger. yay. the worst part is, i got burned for nothing. i hate my self portrait. it's terrible. one of the worst feelings is presenting artwork you hate.

that's probably the part i like best... and that's only because it's a spring roll. my teacher basically ripped me a new one when she critiqued my piece. i knew it was bad, but damn. she tore it apart. it was the most brutal crit i've had, since starting AFO. but that's a good thing... i hate it when teachers are like "oh, you did the assignment. good. no feedback". you know?
my space research project is due tomorrow at 6pm. we have to replicate a still life in full scale, using wire. our still life is a tonka truck with skulls and bones in the back. that wouldn't be so hard to... say, draw. but to create with WIRE? that means it has to be 3D. arrgghh. photography man, PHOTOGRAPHY! oh well. so, i guess i'm going to have to go to bowe street tonight and work some more on that, since i think i'm pretty far behind.
i think gabriel and i have an obsession with carrying Babycat in bag-like forms.
example:

haha. she's so cute. ( here are some more photos of kitties and the new house! )
i'm going to relax a bit, then pack my stuff and go to the studio. aghhh. :/ |
