A Little Lost....

Mon Jun 29, 2009, 2:20 AM
Even if I wanted to explain what I feel so lost about it would take a life time to write and then one to read and non of us have the time haha.

I am feeling slightly uninspired; I just can't be bothered to finish this portrait,a bad attitiude I know and especially because my client is so looking forward to seeing it.

I have loads and loads of ideas for my studio practice next year and i want to just paint them all, and get them out of my head I think that might help maybe.

The main reason for my lostness is simply people - sometimes I just don't understand anyone, one min they are your friend or they want to do this or that, then they change their mind or they stop speaking to you and well I haven't changed... so it must be them? And now; to be honest i have no idea what I'm going on about. Im just so bored and fed up.

It's having things in my life I want to leave behind or change in some way, saying it is easy; getting there is a drag! And boring! And testing! And i want to give up! But it will be so much better... grass is greener on the otherside, apparently!

My dad thinks and a fruit cake (i'm sure he didn't really mean it, I was being rather stupicd at the time), and everyone else thinks I'm a nutter or just plain strange...I consider myself to be just a bubbly fun loving kinda person who just wants to do her best. And here I go again wittering, I'm shutting up.

tati bye.

p.s i think the sympathy icon is cute ... i'm not actually begging for sympathy lol

Ah, the dreaded final year D: With your previous commisions, you're sure to get more based on the quality of your work :).
I've been stressed out recently, my teachers have been drowning me in work..2 wks ago i was on campus from 6:30 am to 4:15 pm drawing non-stop to finish an assignment. Not to mention i really am very disappointed with my lack of growth these past 8 weeks...it's a struggle to be motivated :(. I can't wait till christmas, lol.

Indeed. Hmm, recently my tutors have been giving me a right wiping over my work, one tutor told me i couldn't draw accurately, then she had a go at me about the shape of my palette would you believe! apparently it was an "amatuer" palette, the wrong shape. Everytime she passes my studio she was calling me "amatuer this, not good at that, thats wrong, you know nothing"..etc, just putting me down and belittling me, got me really down. Aww bless you, gosh you are so dedicated, i thought i was doing well 8:45am - 5pm. Oh I hope things are improving/improve soon sweet! :hug: I think creative people, well most people in fact, have times where nothing is coming together, my whole second year (last year) was like that. Haha, aww I dread christmas, got sooo much to do before then, obs i love christmas day, food, family, relaxing, and presents, whoop, can't get much better than tht :D.

D:!!!! Those tutors are crazy! Either crazy or seeing somethin I'm not, because your stuff is damn accurate to me >=O. O.o your palette?! Ugh, it's those kind of conformist tutors that I dislike the most >=[. Let me tell you that you're extremely talented, and your knowledge is evident in your work. Remember that every single artist in history who started an art movement was ridiculed and put down by the current art society, so even if you don't believe me you can find solace in that :D.
I can't wait till xmas either! Hopefully I'll get to go away ^^. ohh i got good news! I did an impressionist still life in painting class; the first time I ever painted on cancas, and I got 98%!! I'm stoked! XD. How are things with you now though? Is school any better?
