Dear god my stomach hurts so bad. Thank god for motrin. Tis my friend. This is such a great weekend. I’m so happy. Like I should be in school right now…not enjoying my long long vacation. Man I needed it too…just needed to get away. And I was ‘sick’ on Tuesday so basically I had a 2-day week. Mwahaha. Good job me. Well…hmm…today is Sunday. Gasp. Weekend is almost over. I could cry. I don’t want to go back to school tomorrow, and I’m in pain. Owie. Sam understands…. Thursday was thanksgiving, where I did almost nothing until later my parents made me go to Sandy’s for dinner. It was good, but I waited too long to get up and actually get the food (there were a lot of people there) and I missed out on thee potatoes and stuffing and such. Very sad. The turkey kicked butt though so that was good. Luckily for me I got this insane burst of creativity this week, and discovered a marvelous website… deviantart.com? I think that’s it. Yes. I’ve seen it before when doing image searches and stuff on google, but never actually paid attention to the website. Then when I noticed all the good pictures I found were coming from that site I became intrigued. I got SO many ideas for art pieces after I was on that site. Like….60 or something ideas. It’s awesome, too bad now I’m in a total creativity dry spell. This is just depressing. Thursday and Friday I was like on FIRE with my creative buzz…Saturday morning it was there a little bit…by Sunday (today) it’s almost all gone. I’m so sad. My hands are in serious need of lotion. Yep. Ok so looking at the list of ideas now…some of it isn’t so great. Like none of them are really all that specific. I wrote things like nature, faeries, figure drawing. That’s better than nothing, but still, it doesn’t exactly get the work done. I need ideas for each piece too, like Cinderella--will she be in the dress? In the pumpkin coach? Or will she be with the wicked stepmother? Things like THAT. Specifics. I need specifics. I have very few ideas in here that actually have somewhat of a drive or vision behind them. That is why I am continuing to look on the site but now my creativity is so gone that I can’t even think of lame vague ideas! I’ve been drained. Oh well. At least I had the paper and internet close by when I did have my burst of genius. Hopefully it will return to me…oh muse…where are you…? If I really wanted to take the time to do it…I would post my list…but some of it is either lame, only something I would understand the thought process behind, or just really weird that you’d kinda have to see it when it’s done to understand that I’m not a total freak…etc… Some of the ideas are pretty cool though like a Seven Deadly Sins series where of course I paint someone representing each of the sins. That would be really great, but would take hours and hours of my time. I’d probably have to make it pretty big too so I could get all the details right. That is one of my better ideas--however I’m perfectly aware that it is not original. And I’m ok with that, as long as I can make it my own and really bitchin who needs originality? So that was the first step of my thought process…thinking of what to draw. Now that I have that, what do I draw within it? How do I represent each sin? What colors should I use? --- that may sound stupid but really, it’s quite difficult. Apparently lust is truly represented by blue?? Wtf?? To me lust=passion=red. That’s just the way it is. Blue is far too mellow for it to be the passionate sin. It just doesn’t work. So if I make lust red, what will wrath be? I certainly can’t use red twice, and I’m sure as hell not going to do blue for wrath. My best guess is: Lust=red Envy=green Vanity (pride)=purple Avarice (greed)=yellow/gold Sloth=blue…maybe light blue? Gluttony=orange Wrath=...reddish brown? Maybe blackish grey? I have no idea. Clearly this one is going to take quite some time. But we will see. Gah my hands are so cold. Everyone is cold this weekend…It’s crazy...I’m freezing. I’m wearing my flannel shirt and a big heavy blanket and my hands are like ice. Cool. I want my muse back DAMMIT!!!
