Well, I've been attacking the Sookie Stackhouse series. If you aren't familiar with the series, it basically falls under the category of "southern vampire mystery." More importantly it has a jocose, tongue-in-cheek undercurrent that keeps the books from falling into the typical dark, brooding trammels most vampire books align themselves to. Since I've been waiting over a week for the next book I've put on hold to come in (why can't people return library books within their due dates), I've resorted to watching the True Blood series. For those of you not in the know, that's the HBO series that is based off of the Sookie Stackhouse books. The book-to-screen transition is actually done pretty well--much better than I thought it would have--with some additional situations thrown in from other characters' perspectives.

Aside from that things are going well. I have school, a job, an apartment, my hobbies and my friends. The only other thing I need is a girlfriend then I think I can be considered to be well-rounded individual.

I've also been fooling around with tattoo designs, for other people and myself. I'm not tattooed yet (and have no immediate plans to be), but somewhere down the road it'll happen.

I feel slightly foolish/guilty, making journal entries on dA like I expect people to care when I'm not even on here enough to be able to keep up with other peoples' journals, affairs and work. Sorry?

]]> ~Inc- http://Inc-.deviantart.com/journal/17880321/ http://Inc-.deviantart.com/journal/17880321/ Wed, 16 Apr 2008 12:50:13 PDT
And I just needed something to get rid of my old journal entry. Speaking of my old journal entry, the tables have been turned... that is to say, I've acquired a job on-campus doing nude modeling for art classes. Pays well, time goes by surprisingly fast, but one's muscles can become sore after holding a pose for so long.

I hope to nab a job as a writing tutor for next semester.

]]> ~Inc- http://Inc-.deviantart.com/journal/16855816/ http://Inc-.deviantart.com/journal/16855816/ Tue, 12 Feb 2008 21:02:54 PST did get to finish. No lighting was taken, no background drawn out and depressions and other details around the torso never got filled in etc. Regardless, I liked how it turned out and recently I realized this has potential for greatness. This is a departure for three reasons: 1) I seldom draw people, 2) I seldom do pencil work anymore and 3) I would be using models, as the very idea of drawing from photographs is preposterous.

There are some problems, naturally. I don’t exactly have a studio, so finding a room for the modeling to take place is an issue. Also, I don’t have lamps for making strong, dynamic shadows and lighting. Lastly, finding a model/s will be tricky since I’m unwilling to pay anyone to model and I’m sure most people would have cold feet about posing topless. That I’m not an art student will make convincing people my intentions are purely artistic difficult. I can easily acquire lamps, and I’m sure between the model and I a place can be found. As for finding a model, I’ve come up with three ideas:
1) ask any friends that I think would comply
2) ask one of the art professors at my school for advice
3) put flyers up w/ contact info

My school does have open drawing sessions with nude models, which under normal circumstances would be fine, but there are specific poses that I want and I wouldn't be able to get close enough to the model to focus on just their torso.

If and when I do get around to starting this series I may try another series, this time focused on the backs of women. It just depends on whether I’m still interested or not, but backs do have an alluring quality to them. Imagine: the subtle contours around the shoulder blades, and the shallow trough of the vertebral column. The curvature of the spine as it first dips inward, then swoops back out toward the bottom. A steady cascade of bumps fall along the center of the back, each marking a vertebrae. This "waterfall" crashes at the sacrum, fanning out into a wide depression the shape of a butterfly. On the right person a back can be amazingly aesthetic!

It's a long shot, but if any of you are interested (or know someone who would be) and live reasonably close to me (I live in Northeast Ohio), let me know. For the torso series I really have no preference as far as a person’s size/shape/whatever goes. Just be 18+.

I sit back and mull over this for a few moments. I look at my own situation, that I make almost twice that in one day of work. It just amazes me how differently other parts of the world are stratified. Simply amazing.

Anyway. I changed my signature to something new and refreshing for me. It's supposed to make looking for new art easier for others as well as myself.

I love Vivaldi and Pachelbel's work (concerto in b minor & canon d ftw), I'm reading Lolita for the third time (favorite book, it is), I still haven't drawn anything new (and i doubt any of you have been waiting with bated breath, anyway) and I have (have had, is more like it) a job in construction. Not much else is new.

Have safe and merry times as the year draws to a close, everyone.

I've been virtually off the dA radar these last few months, but aside from starting a relationship with the lovely Ms. Deanna not much has happened. Well, I finished the Harry Potter series. I'm starting to read Dean Koontz again ("By the Light of the Moon"). I bought a PS3. I changed my major to nursing and enrolled in Kent's honors college. Hrm, and I think that's it.

But! I miss dA and the forums and the folks in the forums and the folks outside of the forums so I'll be making an effort to get back into the dA way of things, especially next week, when school starts and I have the internet again (i virtually didn't at home). So... I hope y'all are safe and healthy.

After having taken a semester off last Fall I am back in school. One would think that because of that I'd most certainly have no time to draw, but such is not the case! Since I'm being unsocial, I have only my classes and homework to keep me busy. I actually have lots of free time on my hands. AND the school has scanners available to its students, so that's one less obstacle out of the way. I'm not taking any art courses, though... I'd have to start at the fundamental levels, and those are scarcely conducive to creativity. No, I'll have to motivate myself. By the way, the classes I am taking are

Art History I
Comparative Religious Thought II
Fundamental Math II, III, IV
Human Evolution
Literature in English I

Simply riveting!

Let me direct your attention to here: [link] Beware: it'll drain you of all your money! I know... it has already gotten to me. But once your swag arrives in the mail it'll be like nothing ever happened.

My New Year's resolution was to get back into drawing in a big way, but so far it seems I've been unfaithful to it. But the drawing cravings are back (and I'm as without a scanner as ever before), so hopefully we'll see an update of some form from me... soon, hopefully? ?

The past couple of days have been swelteringly hot and humid, with clear blue skies as far as the eye can see. Before I went in to work I doublechecked to make sure that the skies were clear before rolling down my windows to aerate my car. So naturally it started raining a couple hours later while I was in the library working. -,-

Things like that don't bug me that much though. Actually, our library has these "roundtable" meetings where the 'suits' come down and talk to us about the library's financial situation and changes in policy. These only happen about twice a year, and of course we had one (we're required to go to them) yesterday, right after work, thus postponing any intervention by me to save my car's interior from the rain. -,- -,- It was funny though, there were 32 women ages 40 to 70 at the 'meeting', and then me: the only male, the only teenager. At least there was dessert consisting of ice cream cake, brownies, cherry strudel, and banana and key lime pie.

I checked my bank statement later on today, and what do I see? Digits in the negatives. But luckily my paycheck was automatically sent to my bank account yesterday, so I see that my balance has returned to the POSTITIVES! But wait, soon after I'm hit with an overdrafting charge of 30-some dollars, dragging me back into the negatives. Now, according to my statement, I made all these various transactions Tuesday, which is what resulted in my overdrafting. But I didn't use my card on anything Tuesday. Well, suffice to say, I went to the bank and they told me that these were merely transcactions that I had made over the weekend that didn't actually get processed until after Memorial Day. Well, all right, I understand that. But whenever I'd check my account balance (something I do frequently, as I'm paranoid), it never told me that I had all these transactions pending over the weekend. Every other time it HAS so that I'd know what my balance would be after they go through. But not this time. I had no idea my balance would be in the negatives after these transactions went through. And had I known, I would've found some way to deposit enough money in it so that it wouldn't be in the negatives after the transactions were done pending. And THEN I wouldn't've been charged a fee. Well, if that didn't totally confuse you then you get a medal.

I'm planning on going back to the bank this Friday when the manager there will actually be present to see if I can at least pay the overdraft fee at a later date so that I'm at least not in the negatives and have something to pay for gas til my next paycheck. Speaking of paychecks, we get paid every other week. Oh joy.

And on top of all that, my favorite pair of pants is starting to fall apart.

I don't even want to ask my parents for any kind of help, financially. I'm fiercely independent when it comes to money, and that very well may be my downfall one day. However, I don't think I have much choice this time...

Despite all that, I'm in a good and care-free mood right now. I just know that somehow everything'll work out.

14 years old! Ninth grade! Woo, a horrible time for me... I had little to no friends, I had an identity crisis (tried being gothic ), and I developed my first serious crush, which was a real learning experience. But around this time I had already gotten over the girl, and started talking to Alyson, whom is currently one of my most awesome friends.

Huzzah! ]]> ~Inc- http://Inc-.deviantart.com/journal/7235781/ http://Inc-.deviantart.com/journal/7235781/ Tue, 06 Dec 2005 06:43:42 PST least not lose touch with it. When I draw something that looks pretty or neat, I can actually feel proud of myself knowing it's something I made myself; with my own hands. It's just something I don't want to let slip away.

But.

I'll have to get rid of that big 'ole sketchbook that I recently got. It's too unwieldy and big for me... I just don't feel comfortable with it. So I'm gonna go back to Micheals and get a new sketchbook; but it'll be the same kind as my old, old one. I'll still try to branch out into different mediums though. I'll have to get prisma markers and coloured pencils though. And a new scanner... err, I can't keep bumming scans off my friends ¬¬

Speaking of which, I'll probably have to rescan all the recent stuff I've uploaded. I resized them wrong, and most of them turned out coarse and grainy... not smooth, dark, and detailed like my earlier scans. So I'll have to get a new scanner as well (since my old one died on me... but that's old news).

I just hope I have enough time to really indulge in all this next semester since I'll be juggling school, a job, and trying to have a social life all at the same time.

And that's all she wrote.

On a sadder not, I just realized I'm missing one of my older, older pieces. One that I liked a lot! It was my otter/dragon one... blaaa, and I just happened to give the picture away as a gift to someone I know... who went away to college Thus begins my quest to find it, and bring 'er home! ]]> ~Inc- http://Inc-.deviantart.com/journal/7145363/ http://Inc-.deviantart.com/journal/7145363/ Fri, 25 Nov 2005 23:32:33 PST
Since I'm not in any art classes, I have to actually motivate myself to draw. And that isn't something that comes very easily for me. BUT I'M MAKING AN EFFORT I filled up my old sketchbook. That thing is priceless to me... there are just so many emotions, memories, and inside jokes in it.

But I've started a new sketchbook. It feels different and alien to me. It doesn't fit neatly with my other books when I carry it around, and it just seems so enormous and empty. The old sketchbook was torn, falling apart, creased in odd places, yellowing... but it felt familiar to me. But for the new sketchbook I'm going to try and take things in a new direction. I've only done one complete piece in it. Will anyone notice a different between the new and old? Who knows. But it's getting late, and there is wretched schoolwork that needs doing. Ciao! ]]> ~Inc- http://Inc-.deviantart.com/journal/7083950/ http://Inc-.deviantart.com/journal/7083950/ Fri, 18 Nov 2005 20:08:28 PST , whom let me use her scanner, I've scanned pretty much all my artwork (excluding any of the larger pieces, but there will be opportunities to do those later). So now... I can begin uploading my art. I'll try not to go overboard "zomg!!1 upload everything at 1nce!" and just upload a few things a day... ooo, I'm so happy. ]]> ~Inc- http://Inc-.deviantart.com/journal/6429444/ http://Inc-.deviantart.com/journal/6429444/ Tue, 06 Sep 2005 06:22:15 PDT ~Inc- http://Inc-.deviantart.com/journal/4979457/ http://Inc-.deviantart.com/journal/4979457/ Sat, 02 Apr 2005 12:48:53 PST
