Description For class we have to do journal entries, this started by me finding some scrap wood and wanting to oil paint, so I went in the bathroom and did a quick contour of my face then painted it, I liked it so I decided to do three more of some friends, then I picked four songs, each going with my thoughts and emotions about each person

blue panel- self portrait song lyrics "Missed The Boat" - Modest Mouse

red panel- Carson, song lyrics "4th Dimensional Transition" - MGMT

orange panel- Ally, song lyrics "Dream Wanderer's Tune" and "Lemon and Little Lemon" by Deerhoof

green panel- Kat, song lyrics "La Famila" by Mirah
(Kitty I hope you don't get offended by my song choice, but I associated you with Mirah hehe)

you're a good painter. I recognized those people instantly, and you did a good job of connecting each portrait with a feeling.

pretty sweet.

I keep thinking about an art class. Taking one anyway. I figure it may get me motivated to draw more than I do now. Which is zilch.

But the only thing stopping me is whenever I have taken classes, they TELL you what to draw. They don't give you ideas like, "Hey draw your feelings lately in so-and-so manner." They're just like, "Okay, I've set up a bunch of junk on the table. Draw it." And then call it still art. You know? If I was an art teacher I'd broaden my students minds, not force them to learn the same crap every year because curriculum says so.

Sorry.


Nice though, I'm really diggin' your style.
