Ink!

 For Sale

So I'm going back to college. Yeah I feel like getting up at an insanely early time again and risking the crazy bus system (and hope the bus doesn't catch on fire). I did apply for 2 courses, was accepted into one and am on the waiting list for the other.

The course I did get into was the same course I was on last time when I went crazy and had to stop going. I am determined this time to finish it, I was so close that when I stop and think about it I was stupid for not going. OK so I was crazy, so thats a bit of an excuse but it still bugs me that I didn't finish the course.I think now that I am on meds for the depression and anxiety that I should be able to finish it; and that we also seem to have figured out what works the best with the MS, I should finish.

I did have to paint my butt off for a portfolio tho because I didn't really have that many paintings to put in it, lots of drawings just not a lot of paintings. Decided I had nothing to lose by experimenting and put ink to canvas. I think its a neat effect, not overly realistic but you can still tell what it is.

The duck is ink on canvas, and I just let the colours bleed together when they wanted. I think this would work really well on a huge canvas, the colours might blend together in more interesting ways.

For Sale

The lily is inktense pencils on canvas. It was much easier to control the ink using the pencils but the ink didn't blend together as much as just using the ink itself.

The course doesn't start until the end of August, so expect more nekkid people then :p I have noticed that I am spending more time simplifying things since I took the course before, not sure yet if thats a good or bad thing :p
