I like a lot of it, it's really  fun to work with new materials and  stuff - For instance, we're doing  scratchboard right now and we just  finished doing oil pastels.<br />
<br />
The thing is, I don't know if I should  upload any of this stuff once I can get  it back and scan it, because they're  *all* done with photo refs, and for the  scratchboard we're even just tracing a  photo.<br />
<br />
Hmm.<br />
Scratchboard and oil pastels are really  fun though, and I like how they are  turning out/turned out.<br />
<br />
Any input, anyone?<br />
<br />
In other news, I just uploaded a page  full of doodles. Go look, if you're a  PNer you're probably in it.<br />

Every year, our Art teacher Mr. Curless  gets with the Art club to paint a mural  on a wall in the school. I wanted to  join Art club, but I couldn't because I  have choir every Wednesday. Anyway, Mr.  Curless asked me and a boy in my class  if we wanted to draw the mural for him!<br />
<br />
We're gonna draw it on a piece of  paper, and then Mr. Curless is going to  copy it onto a transparency and project  it on the wall and the Art club is  going to paint it!<br />
<br />
I'm happy, jes ja.<br />

<br />
Yay, another three months of search  function <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=D" title="=D (Big Grin)" /><br />

<br />
Yes, so I'm in school now. Fun, eh? Not  really. I'm in Art, so probably at the  end of the trimester (November, I  think) I'll be submitting some of that  crap. Surprisingly, I haven't been  doodling much. I did a sick-looking  Cenotaj on my DOL paper. I swear, I've  been doing DOLs since I learned how to  read. I KNOW ENGLISH GRAMMAR BY NOW,  THANKYOUVERYMUCH.<br />
Anyway, seeing as I'm in school for  most of the time I'm awake (and some of  the time I'm asleep, too), I definitely  won't have as much time for doodling,  oekaki-ing, smudging, and whatever. And  I won't spend the entire day online,  either, or maybe not be on every day.  So if I don't respond to comments 2.5  seconds after you post them like I  usually do, don't get worried. I'm  probably learning the ever-so-useful  skill of copying definitions from a  book or trying to read a story while  the teacher is reading aloud 2 pages  behind me.<br />
<br />

XP<br />
I'm on my old computer right now,  because the other comp's internet  connection stopped working *AGAIN*, and  this comp has an 800x600 screen rather  than 1024x768.<br />
<br />
Everything looks *really bad*.<br />
Not to mention, really big.<br />
My ID, whose width [I believe] is the  400 I read somewhere that should work  on all the screens, goes off the page.  There are people whose IDs go off the  page even in 1024 -- What screen  resolution do they have? <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/weirdface.gif" width="27" height="15" alt=":O_o:" title="O_o" /><br />

I'm not sure I even want to look at  pixel art. The smilies look pretty bad,  too.<br />

Just when I had gotten used to old  DevArt...<br />
I'm not a fan of the tabbed message  center. I like one big page. =\<br />
<br />
Ah well.<br />
<br />
I wrote a poem, and have done some  oekaki. I should upload something.<br />
<br />
Weird Al concert in... 15 days! We  bought tickets today. Mree.<br />
<br />
~Joy is coming to DevArt less and  less... T_T<br />
<br />
P.S. -- Are the mouseover alt thingies  gone from deviations? WHY? I love those  things, they're so useful... Knowing  the title and artist on the front page  or in someone's gallery was a good  thing.<br />
<br />
Also, it doesn't show the type of  deviation on the message center... So I  don't know, for instance, if something  is a photo or just a preview image for  poetry/prose.<br />
Also on the watch page, it shows  views/comments/favourites as 0... I'm  hoping this is a bug that will be fixed  soon, we'll see.<br />
<br />
I don't mean to bitch, and I'm sure  I'll get used to the tabbed message  center and the skin and all, just it  doesn't make much sense, some of these  changes.<br /><br />I'm in clubs o_o<br />

Not an earth-shaking thing,  really, but I just felt like saying I'm  working on a new ID that's actually got  a big detailed BG and lots of big  detailed characters and I think it's  turning out pretty nice. But I'm not  done yet, and it may still be a while.<br />
<br />
I want the Oekakis to be bumped off my  page as much as you do, but I haven't  the inspiration to do anything right  now, other than the ID.<br />
<br />
So...er...Inspire me!<br />
<br />
I get to go to a Weird Al concert next  month. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=D" title="=D (Big Grin)" /><br />

~Joy feels the need to draw something,  but the only thing she's drawn in the  past week has been...cabinets.<br /><br />I'm in a club o_o<br />

Of course, anyone who reads my  deadjournal or is on AIM knows that.<br />
But I'm telling EVERYONE just how  pathetic I am.<br />
And I love it.<br />
<br />
I need to make a new ID. I also need to  edit my Simba pixel art. I also need to  do a character for a contest for the  Brother Bear club I just joined. I also  need to learn how to use watercolour  pencils.<br />
That is all. Good night.<br />

~Hell, Joy just felt like making  another journal.<br><br>I'm in a club o_o<br />

I noticed that my  deviation descriptions tend to be  extremely long compared to most  people's. The description on my slash  (by the way - Read it please <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=D" title="=D (Big Grin)" />) is  almost as long as the story itself.<br />
<br />
Some people won't put anything in their  descriptions but a '...' or 'I drew  this yesterday' or something, but I  feel a need to tell people every little  aspect of the deviation, how much I  love it or hate it or why it reminds me  of cheese.<br />
<br />
Maybe I'm just too chatty. I can ramble  on in journals like this for hours.<br />
<br />
On a completely different note, I found  a tin of watercolour pencils. Made in  Germany. With penta-lingual packaging. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=D" title="=D (Big Grin)" /><br />
Now I need to figure out what to do  with them... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/p/plotting.gif" width="18" height="20" alt=":plotting:" title="Hmm. Evil plotting in progress." /><br />

I had a dream last night that I went to  Washington DC again and wanted to take  pictures of EVERYTHING but couldn't  find a camera and didn't have any  money.<br />
<br />
This morning, I went out into the  backyard (barefoot and with my dogs)  and took some pictures.<br />
These, along with the pictures of the  ducks and geese (last week, we went to  a graveyard to feed the waterfowl  there. Creepy, ne? <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/weirdface.gif" width="27" height="15" alt=":O_o:" title="O_o" />), are probably the  only non-digital pictures I've taken  since last spring.<br />
<br />
Fear not, though, deviants, for there's  still some pictures left on the roll  and they're probably not going to be  developed for a while. So you don't  have to worry about my crappy  photography sharing space with my  crappy poems and drawings <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/x/xd.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="XD" title="XD" /><br />

~Joy tried to take a picture of a  squirrel... but it ran away...<br><br>Stalk my buddies.<br />

It's summer. This means sleeping  in, lots of free time, and... Er,  sleeping in. Also, no motivation to do  much of anything.<br />
<br />
So tell me if you want me to draw you  something. I will. I have absolutely  nothing to do for the majority of the  summer.<br />
<br />
I'm seeing Prisoner of Azkaban  tomorrow. I'm excited.<br />
I'm also writing slash. It's a good way  to release pent up hormones, since I  see no attractive beings during the  summer.<br />
It's kitty slash. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/weirdface.gif" width="27" height="15" alt=":O_o:" title="O_o" /><br />
<br />
I am taking full advantage of the  search function. It's lovely.<br />
<br />
So, in feeble hopes that some of the  people reading this on Deviantart are  different than the ones that read my  deadjournal, give me something to do.<br />
Book recs, flash games, origami.  Anything, I don't care. Most of my  summers are spent bored. I got nothin'  to do.<br />
Tutorials are always fun, as well.<br />
<br />
~Joy is, though bored, quite happy.  She's seeing a Harry Potter movie  tomorrow, has some new CDs, and has  been playing around with GIMP all  evening.<br><br>Stalk my buddies.<br />

I'm going to STALK. Stalk... someone.  *cough*<br />
<br />
Okay, to add more substance than just  my bragging to this entry, I have a  question to all ye people stumbling  across my SUBSCRIBED user page:<br />
Does anyone really want to read my  angsty poetry? I could submit them, if  anyone cares. All my drawings are  starting to look the same, and I think  I need a little variety with my  submissions. Thoughts?<br />
I could also submit some of my Power of  the Pen stories from 7th and 8th grade.  They're pretty fun.<br />
<br />
~Joy is a SUBSCRIBED language nerd who  likes constructive criticism, as always.<br><br>Stalk my buddies.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ "Joy, you're one hell of a doodler."  ~Joey, in Geometry class. I felt  SPESHULL.<br />
<br />
I've been doodling way too much at  school. My hand ends up hurting by the  end of the day <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/x/xd.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="XD" title="XD" /><br />
<br />
In Science, I did another flapping  falcon. It's 10 frames long, and I've  scanned it and am putting inbetween  frames. W00t w00t, an almost-actual  speed animation! J0y iz t3h 1337  4n1m470r. Or not.<br />
<br />
I need to add some variety to my  drawings. Almost all of them are either  big cats or wolves or falcons or Kenai.  Any suggestions, O loyal reader of my  journal? <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/razz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=P" title="=P (Razz)" /><br />
<br />
For those of you playing along at home,  here's what I'm currently working on:<br />
'No Way Out' - Thinking of a better  title and working on Koda<br />
New and Improved Flapping Falcon<br />
Dolphin Porn<br />
Tortilla y Burrito parte dos: &#161;en  color! - Due next Friday for my Spanish  class, about halfway done.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Joy Gerhardt  <br />
is a New Artist <br />
is Female <br />
is a deviant since Feb 25, 2004, 10:24  PM <br />
has 100 pageviews <br />
<br />
Ahahahaha, go me. For getting my own  100th pageview. I'm pathetic.<br />
<br />
Since Intersessions are over, I'll have  less doodle time. And since I've  forgotten everything from my classes  that I had last two weeks ago, I'll  have to pay attention. Even in  Geometry. Savage, I know.<br />
<br />
My birthday is on Tuesday. Whoopee! I  know, you couldn't care less. I tend to  ramble in journals, which is why I'd  best stay away from this thing. If you  want to see some REAL rambling, go to  my Deadjournal at <a href="http://www.deadjournal.com/~joyuna">[link]</a> . Nonstop  rambling, seven days a week. If you  like that kind of thing.<br />
<br />
I'm going to draw more bird-dragons. A  creature, all of my own. I'm so proud <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/t/tears.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":tears:" title="Tears" />  I can draw babies and mothers and  fighting males and oh it's so much fun!  And I doodled a lot of them, too... But  unfortunately, most of them were on an  essay cover sheet that I turned in to  Mr. Shelton <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /><br />
<br />
Oh, and by the way, <a href="http://ompimec.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar"  src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/o/m/ompimec.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="ompimec" title="ompimec" /></a> , <a href="http://zippytk.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar"  src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/z/i/zippytk.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="zippytk" title="zippytk" /></a> , <a href="http://cutieco8.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar"  src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/c/u/cutieco8.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="cutieco8" title="cutieco8" /></a> , and <a href="http://bestfriendsmeans.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar"  src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/b/e/bestfriendsmeans.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="bestfriendsmeans" title="bestfriendsmeans" /></a> are  very cool. They're my buds. Go stalk  them.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I'm starting to get settled and comfy  here at DA. It's nice, and I like it  here. And it's an ego-booster to get  comments <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/razz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=P" title="=P (Razz)" /><br />
I get to show off pretty doodles, get  an excuse to stay up late using pretty  smudge tools, and get to look at other  people's much-more-gorgeouser-than-mine  work.<br />
<br />
And Zippy and Omni are here on DA, too!  Hearts hearts hearts to <a href="http://zippytk.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar"  src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/default.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="zippytk" title="zippytk" /></a> and <a href="http://ompimec.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar"  src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/o/m/ompimec.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="ompimec" title="ompimec" /></a> . Go on  and give them many comments and  cookies. They deserves it.<br />
<br />
The only downside to Deviantart is I'm  liable to just sit at the front page  and refresh...refresh...refresh for  pretty things to look at or updates to  people's accounts. But I waste time  with a lot of other things too.<br />
<br />
I like it here. ]]></description>
