hit the wall--owie...

...i'm tired, creatively speaking--though physically too. i need a break. a nice loohng one. with cute boys and lotsa pina coladas and those litte umbrella thingies. so yeah. i was in the ceramics studio today and i couldn't feel or think of crap to do. everything just felt ehh... i think i realized it when i made that funnel... i was thinking cup but i got a funnel. lol... it was pretty funny actually, realizing i was so burned out. i've already spent nearly 70 hours outside of the actual class on ceramics, and we're only required to have fourty. sooo yeah, like a total of 112ish hours on ceramics. and now i'm stuck.. but i hear it's a good thing, most of the time, anyway. it means your growing artistically. so i'm not really worried about it. i'm just really, really, tired. heh. i like making jars and cups and i prefer hand building over throwing ^^ throwing is very, very hard.

in other news, i got some silly little award for some of my encaustic paintings. every year there's a student art show featuring the best of the best (supposedly) that the art department has to offer. i think that's pretty standard for most schools. anyway, ours is known as the 2D/3D show and it runs in line with the senior show. it's pretty selective in terms of what gets in and what doesn't--i say it's all bullshit. but eh, not every piece of art is gonna appeal to every artist. what's pretty sad though is that some of my friends were completely rejected and they happen to be amazing artists! ugh... also, when i went to pick up my stuff one of my drawing--which i really cared for--was missing. they were suppose to have had this new system which was suppose to insure the loss of work; yeah right! BULLSHIT!! xD anyway... where was i.. ah right. it's my second year in the show and this year i won something. pretty cool i guess. i'm not that overly excited about it though. i mean, i am proud but eh... i don't know. oh, one of the pieces which is in the show is here in my DA gallery--> [link] the other two which are a series, i've yet to get pictures of. i'll get them up soon though.

so how are you guys doing? been a while since i updated.

Hey Edi,

Sounds like you have had quite a time... I think your work is wonderful, and deserves recognition. I am contemplating sending some art to a New York juried show. But not sure if I'm ready for that yet.

I know how it gets when you are tired, and also at a standstill for creative ideas. I sit here many times in my studio and ponder what to do next. I have a drawing on canvas awaiting paint, but have yet to do anything with it so far.

Miss chatting with you, tho I know we have both been busy. I have been sending artwork out to various states these past couple of weeks. I was sick last week tho, and still managed to do a 5 person portrait in less than a week.

Anyway, ring me up sometime when you have the chance. I'm usually at the house creating new ideas.

Hugs
:heart:

I can understand the artist torments when you feel lack of creativity -.- but it means you need a break... just some patience and inspiration will be back naturally ^^
