today seems like a good day.. got the day off school cause of Caesar Chavez Day. had my first day of spring quarter yesterday.. was really nice seeing all of my friends, well most of em'.. they're like my second family. mm... lets see. i'm taking a pottery class which should prove very, very interesting, no painting class this quarter though--just need a break, not from painting but from the instructor.. i just wanna work independently for a while. oh, yeah! also, i seem to be delving further and further into the abstract--my best friend doesn't seem to like it, she liked it when i made pretty pictures. but i think i finally found a direction though... a sort of medium between figurative and abstract.. which is sorta 'kinda' what i've always done with my painting, only now it's more evolved. i really wanna pursue this more and really see where it takes me. *i'm feeling good about this* i gotta get my hands on a camera so i can photograph some stuff i did in my expressive drawing class and some paintings i did over spring break to show you guys. and also, big.. yes! i want to got bigger. *no not like that* i realize i enjoy working small and it's pretty convenient but i'd like go bigger... i like the feel of intimidation you get from working on a large surface, that and it allows for greater expressive ability. so yeah, that's me so far. how have you all been?


and take a peek at my friend's page if you haven't --> :icondavid2draw:

also he's single, but straight... so if you flirt with him that's even better :giggle:

I saw your friend's page... very impressive!

I'm so happy for you that you found a direction/voice with your work in the academic arena... it was very hard for me to do so with a nagging feeling of "how am i going to make this a job." (so i went into graphic design and have regretted it to this day). I no longer work in the arts at all and Graphic Design was just too "structured" for me. Go with what feels right and you will find a place for it :hug:

The "going bigger" thing is so great as well ;)
there is nothing quite so exciting and intimidating as looking at a huge blank canvas and just jumping in :D

I'm about to go talk to my advisor about classes for the fall. I've made a neat little list of what I want to take but it won't be that easy. :(

Taking ceramics? Awesome! I've taken three college ceramics class and love it. I would love to buy my own pottery wheel and set up a kiln in my yard and just go clay-crazy.

So, you are delving further into the abstract while I am fighting my way back to realism. :laughing: I usually do huge abstracts but for my recent painting I've scaled down and decided to do family portraits.

Lol, I signed up for Advanced painting, but then I dropped it because I needed a break from him too :D

Edi, your work is definitely your own. I love your paintings, and you know the ones I like the most. I do think exploring what you feel is the direction you want to go is always the thing to do so that you grow (no not that way) even bigger. :P Could be interesting how you have a class without an instructor.

Your day might have been good, but mine sucked. Not feeling the best, and got a call from a client that is not able to pay me at the moment. (needed to pay some bills, or could lose my internet, were I do online art designs for money). plus I have been a bit under the weather. Not sure why. Can't seem to stay awake.

Anyway... That's my day in a nutshell. Call when ya can... I'll do the same.

:hug:
