Progress Update

I got my stuff done! I'm not failing! I did my work and it was completed and PT still hasn't killed me.

I still kind of feel like I'm careening towards a mental breakdown. I am surrounded my complete strangers 90% of my day and the remaining ten I'm mostly in the company of my charming, darling, retardedly intense parents. I'm not a shy person, but I do prefer to be around people I know and trust who aren't as crazy-intense as I am. Which strikes out my classmates and my parents. I really, really miss my best friends. I don't see enough of them.

But work. Right.

Next projects: Photomanips and I really don't know for 361, as a class we're really behind.

I'm doing something to do with the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire for the photo manipulation.

I'm kind excited/kind anxious about the field trip Saturday. No one I know is going, and if family knows I'm in town...If I think my parents are intense, they're serene xanax poppers compared to their parents and siblings.

I need a bit more quiet time in my life. I do not have enough.

I am in so much trouble

I've been holding my tongue, but today is pretty much rubbing up close to my breaking point. I've got several things due in the next couple days, but because of ROTC and PT training, I've yet to hit my stride with figuring out when and how I'm doing my work.

I've been abstaining from caffeine as it exasperates dehydration, but I think I will have to fall into the sweet, sweet arms of diet red bull.

I've got a presentation due Friday in Bio190 - haven't even started typing up my part, let alone assemblage. Art360 has a poster due next Wednesday (still cobbling), and Art361 has a landscape due this coming Tuesday that I haven't even started.

What have I been doing? Sleeping. A lot of sleeping. And trying not to lose my mind. I just quit my part time job so my weekends free up, so this weekend I'm going to be busting my ass on my poster and landscape project.

I'm royally ruined.

Some stuff that I've done


The image below is part of a triptych. This section is mostly done, aside from more fiddling with the shading and figuring out her setting more. I haven't started the other parts yet.
I think it's super cute so far.

The image above is a panel from an incomplete comic I was doing for an assignment, ran out of time and realized that this one panel fulfilled the requirements.

This is a pretty good idea of what my digital art typically looks like when I have fun and do it under my own steam.

Classes I'm using this blog for

Art360.101 and Art361.001

I'm being bad by going over this information during a review of illustrator, and while I don't feel like I'm mastered it, I still know enough about all the tools to get my stuff done on time.

I totally recognize that this is necessary for other students, but this remedialism x my constant hunger from ROTC training x exhaustion because I've been up since 4AM with one 1hr nap at like 9AM = ZERO ATTENTION SPAN

I'm going to see if I have enough money for a bag of chips. *dies*

Hello World

Go team art blog! I decided not to use GIAGD or Joy Jewelry because both of those have very specific purposes and my minor OCD would feel weird posting digital and object design work that has nothing to do with politics or metal working.

TO BE CONTINUED...
