Taking Care of Business part I

I have been at Tafe studying the Arty stuff since 2007, and it's time to organise myself and take care of what i havent done. (more procrastination)

SO, taking photos of all my works i have made since i started is step 1
editing those photos is step 2
posting those photos is step 3

then i will have a proper record of what i have created and will be able to see the progress i have made since the beginning

I know i have  - progressed that is.
I think i'm at the point where i have been wanting to be for a long time. Where I have wiggled into my own niche and am making things that are suited to me and starting my own style of arty things (finally! huzzah!)

unfortunately now i am going to have to go through all my junk backlog to be able to take photos of the stuff i don't already have photos of.
Piles of papers and cardboard folders await me

-__-

Hopefully i still have it all...

actually.. i know i already painted over one canvas so i won't be able to show that one
it was just a modified Frida Kahlo piece though... nothing too serious
still a shame though...

Time Lost

No Idea what happened for the rest of 2010... Life..

2011 came and i prepared myself for my first semester of my last year at School.
Art Journals purchased from the Art Shed after they recovered from the Flood
That Flood was in January - half a year already gone
along with my first semester

Getting a head start during these mid-year holidays though - don't want to be rushing through the nights making heaps of things procrastinating as usual (i wasn't as bad as i usually am though, which is good, i am improving)
Have found that without a deadline it is a lot less exciting and interesting
I must live for the rush

maybe that's why i loved February Frenzy so much..heh


Was crocheting while i was sick at the beginning of my holidays - an intense 3-day session, but came to a halt when my left hand muscles were hurting too much to continue comfortably

the fruits of my labour:

only half cooked... and its yet another project, but i have 3 years to get it all done.. as well as my crochet squares afghan quilt thing from before.

HEY.. forgot.. i also made another ipod pouch for JP, he seems to be thrilled with it since now he can press the play button through the pouch easily and not have to be pulling it out all the time

Old:

not as manly, but it grew on him over the months. Too thick to press through, but shockproof in case of clumsiness. small button and loop closure - not the best idea for the big man hands

New:

Manly and with loop to facilitate a quick grab and pull out of a pocket. Not as shockproof but as indicated by JP, can leave it on and press through yarn to play ipod
