I'm a grownup who sometimes still wishes she could draw.
Posted 9 years agoWell Uh, I am sort of around i guess, since I posted something and then ended up posting art afterwards XD
The truth is, I love to draw and create things. I can describe my emotions as a pile of sheep trying to squeeze through a mouse hole. I have a lot of feels and no way to channel them. At least I have friends to help with that, to some minor extent. Art is the other way, but I'm conflicted with that, as I am so incredibly busy with being an adult who made major lifestyle decisions of gardening -- no regrets mind you! (You can refer to my blog. let's just say I took on a GIGANTIC project to make my own botanical garden here in Nova Scotia, and it's been a very expansive task, drawing plans and then putting them into action, plus husband wants me to grow as much food as we possibly can.) Greenhouses, gardens, all that stuff, it needs a major amount of focus, which I lack a lot of, due to a lot of mental/emotional conflict, PLUS family medical things going on in the background.
Being an adult sucks a LOT. I just want to sit here, let my spine disintegrate as I draw in a dreamlike state. Or you know, lay back and look at the stars while listening to 90s grunge music while discussing the state of our meaningless young lives. Which just doesn't happen anymore.
You'll prolly see stuff from me again eventually, like when the ground is too hard to dig (but then I have a greenhouse year round lol), and strong feelings of all sorts of things subside. :D HAPPY FACE NOW.
I've been following lots of people though, it's a wonderful diversion. To those I watch, keep up the great work.

See ya later, propagator!
Posted 12 years agoThere will be nothing new from here on out on this account. You may unwatch me if you like. Old stuff will remain. I just want to amalgamate all of my creative things into one place, and this new location feels more natural.

switch to a different medium for a while...
Posted 12 years agoTo explain my absence, it's an easy one.
I took up the ukulele recently. I thought it would be (because i know myself) a passing thing and I would play it for a few days and just go back to the way it was. But now I don't touch it unless I have an hour or two to commit because I can't seem to put it down! So every day after work, I will just jam away in the computer room, where I used to draw. It's way more productive at this point, but I will draw again soon.
As for art, unfortunately the only art I have been making lately is diagrams and floor plans of various types for different things (including my job, where I will execute a floor plan next week).
Also been working on christmas gifts, since most of mine are hand made. I'm going to be giving food, sewn items, paintings, and maybe a few other goodies this year. (Pinterest is an evil, EVIL creature).
Just generally having fun with various forms of creation. It's all good.

Fall etc and a Q for anyone who reads this in Ontario
Posted 12 years agoWell, it's fall again, and it's been a really great fall. I got to do some things I'd been waiting to do for MONTHS (see some great stuff, and great people) and now that I've got it all out of my system (mostly) I am settling in for winter.
With that being said, I am looking at my art usb stick that I've had neglected all summer. I have a folder just FULL of wip art, and if I don't want to finish it I might put them all together in the scraps.
I'd like to ease back into commissions again, so if you are interested in that again I might take a few here and there (see my user page for the link).
I have almost all of the details worked out for a storyline that I might use for NaNoWriMo, I'm thinking about this again. If I decide to do it, I will probably not be doing any art until December. It's a mad rush trying to write something to completion in 30 days.
and now, because I work in retail I am forced to OBSESS with christmas again, since I am already swimming in it. Christmas has been unescapable for me for years. Last year I found myself hating it, but this year I want to enjoy it. I am hoping to throw my first Yule Bash at my house, or at least do something quite festive with my closest friends/family.
Life was going to change for me recently, but I ended up not needing to move. I guess we're rooted for the winter, unless something else comes along. Does anyone live in Ontario? Can you recommend your city/town? What's it like? If I end up moving this is where I am probably going. I'm watching for job opportunities there. The alternative? Probably move back to Dartmouth or Halifax. I guess.
Anyway that's that. Just felt like updating.
