updating soon promise....

Uni Time

Wow I didn't know how much time uni took from me, though I am not complaining because I can spend much more time there. The work I am doing (if you can call it that) is fantastic I love it. I'm pretty much painting the whole time there, it's great, especially today we got the chance to go to my city botanical gardens which is so tranquil, I could live there if it wasn't for the infestation of mosquitoes. Though I guess I can always bring bug repellent but I don't know what that could do to the ozone layer. But yea it was a really fun and exciting experience as it was the first time I had used oils paints, daunting at first but really great in the end as I just had fun with it.

Painting #3

Another hidden bird painting, it isn't so obvious as it seems...

So I survived my first week back at uni, feeling more excited about getting into actually painting but with oils. Being an acrylics girl I find transitioning into oils is a bit intimidating since I've grown so confortable with using acylics. Since the course is oil paint based that will be the main medium I would have to use. I guess I can incorporate a little acrylic paint into my projects but oil would have to be the main medium. So I guess I will see how I go with practicing using oil paints, who knows maybe I'll never turn back to using acrylics ever again.

Art School

I just had my first painting class for the semester, man it's going to be a very long road. I know I can do it but I just have to hope that I can keep up, because the information I got from the tutorers yesturday is that this painting class I have taken up is going to be a very intensive one. Well all I have to at this moment is get my stuff together and the organisation I am forcing myself to do will hopfully pan out the semester for itself or just help me greatly.

Painting #2

This has got to be one of my first paintings where I did it within two days, named The Hidden Bird. Usually I would take ages to finish because I would be doing lots of painting projects all at once and it would be like this vicious cycle and it seems like I would never finish. So I have discovered that this new method I have now adopted, of finishing one before I start a new one is definately the way to go for me.
