Though it's not really finished, my lack of real plot makes me think I shouldn't continue it anymore. I kinda feel like I wrote the setup for a sequel.

Sounds familiar, doesn't it? Drawing many sketches and beign unable to derive a final work from there. Sigh.

Still, I wrote 50000 words! And even if they're bland, I created my own characters! Seriously, they are SO bland... The main character is boring, then there's a police cadet, and a couple of mother and son-like S.w.a.t. agents. Then there's the responsible alien, and the menacing looking one that's really sensitive and caring on the inside.

Now I should get back to studying, drawing, recording and photographing.

By the way I've been reading the terms of the film submission policy and I've got to say, I think it's great. If only the rest of the WHOLE WEBSITE had half those quality requirements...

Still, I created a video. For a class. But I didn't want to create something just to pass, and that's it. I wanted to create something meaningful to me. Well, may not be truly meaningful, but at least I'm not ashamed of it. Watch it here:

It's just a videoclip. I wish I had done something else, but hey, for it beign the first (serious) video thingy I ever create, it isn't as horrible as it could have been. (At the beggining of this class year we made a frame by frame recreation of a 1 min piece of a movie, and mine was quite, well... horrible. Seriously, some day I'll upload it for laughs)

I am useless. I can't do things right. I'm not intelligent or active enough to join the rythm of regular adult people's life.

I'll probably end up working on a art-unrelated job. A simple one, and probably bad paid too, since I don't have any other non-art related qualification. And that's how probably my life will be. Because I'm stupid.

And I hate that.

Edit:

I'm feeling fine now. I just felt so... overwhelmed by everything. And I expected a scolding from my mother and my sister. They have supported me a lot in situations like this, but also get over-worried like I do, and therefore get mad at me, making me feel worst. I was very afraid of that.

But it didn't happen. Apparently my sister had the same problems, and everything was allright. I just was... convinced of the fact that everything was definite, and that nothing could be done about it. Tomorrow I'll try to go and get it fixed.

Sometimes I feel the art world is too unstable for me. It's just a temporary feeling.

Thanks for caring about me :)

]]> ~Nissun Hi again http://Nissun.deviantart.com/journal/18317331/ http://Nissun.deviantart.com/journal/18317331/ Wed, 14 May 2008 08:25:18 PDT You may or may not have noticed that lately I've been gradually more and more active here. I've comented, I've faved stuff, and posted a couple of things. Well, I guess I'm back to action (i don't think this idiom makes much sense in english, but you get what I mean) , but, as you may conclude from my writings in previous journals and deviation descriptions, it won' be the same.

No, no more reflecting floors. No more fancy dresses or animal headed people. It was fun to make, and even though I say "no more" I may make them by requet, or for selling. But my personal work won't be as random as it was before. I feel like hiding my whole gallery, but it wouldn' be fair.

I just want people to understand, that when they enter my gallery and watch all those works, they aren't seeing works made by me. I've changed a lot in a very short time. And that's all.

:bulletblue: I've nearly finished the first year. I'm loking forward to the second, but I'm a bit nervous about the subjects I'm going to choose, and the "oh god, what will I do if they are all taken?" stress.

My plans for the summer? They include drawing, painting, photographying and photomanipulating stuff. I'd also like to watch old science fiction movies. I've only watched "the day the earth stood still" so far. I don't know, they seem to have something special. Today's science fiction movies are way too different, and I think lots of stuff can be learnt from old movies. Even B series. With all those cardboard robots, and bright spandex clothes. :lol:

Now that I mention robots... Yeah, you know, if you've seen my gallery lately. My drawing book has them too, a drawing here or there... As I said in the deviation "robohug"*, I would like to develop new ways to draw articulations, and specially heads and faces.

I still haven't drawn Daft Punk. Unbelievable, I know. I love them so much! I love their music, I absolutely adore their film "Electroma", and I'm mad about the robot costumes.

I really don't understand why I haven't tried drawing their helmets. Maybe because every time I look at the pictures, I stare. I contemplate.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*I like this work a lot. I may print it and hang it in my room.

I don't understand why people haven't commented it yet. Does it look that wrong? Doesn't the filter work right? What the hell is wrong with it? I want to know! Seriously, 129 views, 11 favorites and no comments. WTF?

Technologic image: 7
Drawing and representation systems: 7
Art History: 10 (plus distinction)

I'm buying a scanner. I know I won't be able to work on photoshop like I've been doing until now, so I won't try hard to recover it. Because I'm learning how to draw people, and that's motivating me.

And I hope that, with the scanner, I can attempt colouring in photoshop, because right now I have nothing I can try to colour.

Is it me, or does the "optimist" emoticon look like he's giving the fingers? I mean, not the thumbs. It would be 1000 times cooler if it was.

But "Viewpoint". Well...

First of all: how in hell was it a daily deviation? Back when I made that work, I was blind: the screen was dark and I couldn't see, for example, that the floor wasn't covered completely, or that the girl looked horrible. A lot of time later, I had the oportunity to se that work again with it's real colours, and even though I felt a bit disapointed, I had already some kind of (how do you say "cariño" in english?) for that work. It has become quite important for me, and that's why I'm remaking it.

Second: Where the hell is the original .psd file???? I keep ALL my .psd files next to the .jpg versions, so why is this one missing? A work with maybe more sentimental value than any other, so if it's so important, what the hell did I do with it? Did I delete it? I have no memory of that. What the hell happened?

So, as I said, I will try and remake it. Maybe even making a drawing, who knows. Oh, I forgot to tell something very important: I'm developing some little talent for drawing cities. That's it, my beloved futuristic cities or whatever. Of course, I can't draw them on photoshop, I haven't tried drawing them in a sheet of paper bigger than A5, and I haven't coloured a single one yet.

I will upload scans of my art notebook soon (a notebook I had to start working on by request of a teacher, but in the end is our personal work and not something to do for the subject. I think it's a good idea, and it's helping me a lot)

Well, see you.

Working in photoshop has become something mechanic. Nothing new. I get really stressed when I think about all the permissions I have to get... And I make the terrible mistake of wanting to represent an image I already have on my head, wich makes me even more frustrated.

And I see all my works with different eyes. I may like them, yeah, but I don't feel... identified with them. When I look at them I don't think: "Look, I made it, it may not be perfect but it represents something I like!" No, because I don't have enough cities, not enough robots, not enough of what I really would like to make.

Talking about other things, more positive than this I would say, I like to think that step by step I'm going to be more... conscious about the art world. I'll slowly learn to move on those circles, know styles and, of course, and I would say the most important, apreciate other art forms. Yeah, because painting is not the only thing. And now I'm discovering, and I'm suprised by it, that I maybe, MAYBE, fit better in other concepts and points of view.

Whatever.

About the subjects... Well, they are quite interesting, but we're still on very basic things, specially on colour and drawing. I kinda like technological image and sculpture. We're sculpting our friend's heads =D I never imagined we would begin the course with a work like that, but hey, it puts some emotion and self-improvement will. (I don't know if that sentence is 100% correct)

But I'm fine. As I said previously, I miss being here. It's been ages since I last browsed and commented on other's peoples works. That's unforgivabble. I hope I can come back sopme day and interact like I did before.

No wait: more than what I did back then.

I suppose I will keep photomanipulating in my free time, even though I will be tired of drawing and painting and sculpting...

Time will say.

Oh, and I miss being on deviantArt :( . I feel like I've abandoned the community, like I'm not part of it anymore. I wish I could stay here more time!

A bit too dissapointed with those 5's on spanish and design, and very surprised with the 8 on basque, as I nearly fail that subject this course. But very happy with the history of art 9'5 :aww: Do you want to know how lucky I was on that exam? My favorite painting was half the exam! David's "Marat's death" I still can't believe my luck.

I would like to paint it this summer. It's been a long time since I painted something with acrylics. And it sucks, because I want to know the traditional methods too. The fact that I seem to be on an horrible crisis with photoshop also sucks.

I want my new computer NOW :crying:

It was fantastic. Like a speedpaint class xD. But the Great Casualty is that he paints my most favourite kind of images: cityscapes. And what cityscapes... Those paintings are not just beautiful, they have something more... Maybe it's because of my strange love for cities and skies... He's a great guy, and makes an amazing art.


Yesterday we visited the Fine Arts university... Now I KNOW that I want to study that. I want to learn to paint. I'm going to buy a set of acrylic paint and work with colour all this summer. Colour, colour, god, I have tons of pictures of skies taken by myself, but I can't reproduce all those smooth colours on a white canvas... Not even in photoshop... Well, specially in photoshop. If I had different brushes...

But I use the 5th version of photoshop, and I don't think it admits many brushes... Or where I can download them? Does somebody know?

It's hard to take part in the forums, because it takes a lot of time to write things.

Like journals. The truth is that I write this journal just to say that I have a four holiday weekend, and I'll probably be watching CSY:NY episodes, and trying to start making original things in photoshop again.

To be honest, I prefer to write about my life when writing the deviation descriptions, so if somebody feels like asking: "what has this girl done lately?", the deviation descriptions tell more details.
Like the photography project. Or why I'm so lazy with my own works.

Anyways. I want to learn about colour. I want to know how to paint something without reference. I need it. I have scenes, places, people, skies in my head that I need to represent. And sometimes I can represent them with stock photos, but it is very limited.

I've been studying Impresionism and, even not liking it so much, what I like is... light. They painted it perfectly. I would like to know how to choose the correct colours... without using the picking color tool :no: I have to try. I will try, first with photos, but I want to learn how to draw things...

However, I might keep drawing those fanarts... copied from screenshots or posters or whatever. They don't have a lot of merit, because the drawing is copied using a grid and the colour palette too, so... But I like doing them :)

And god knows when they will air the 3rd season! I have my heart on a fist (in spanish, that idiom means that I'm on tension, that I can't wait to know what will happen)

On the good side, I've discovered Dntel. The song "umbrella" appeared in the volkswagen passat advert, and I couldn't stop thinking about it, so I looked for information and discovered their music. It's incredible. I had never listened anything like that, but it was just what I wanted... I downloaded 2 of their albums yesterday (sorry but I don't think I can find them on the local music charts :| But if some day I find them, I'll buy them for sure. I just download things when it's necesary)

I'll use my own photos, no matter how hard it is, I'll take my camera and go for a walk to take pictures of everything and use them later, because I'm tired of the stock artists that have been offline for more than 90 weeks. And they haven't left any email direction or other account to contact...

...Fuck...
Just because half of the mask and the roses are from pictures whoses owners don't give a damn about how they have been used.

You know what I'm going to do? I'll remove those images, I'll put my own roses. And I'll paint the smile. I'm TIRED, I don't want to work again on something I finished months ago, :crying:

And if you couldn't understand something, it's because I still don't control the usage of english in angry situations. It's frustrating, because you don't know as much swearwords as in you language.

Me toca mucho las pelotas, joder, tened un poco de consideración si subis vuestras fotos para que las usen.

:cake:

I joined this community this day on 2004. Why? Because I wanted to comment on certain works. Works I'm ashamed of now... Doodles, sketches, that kind of crappy drawings, but I faved them because they belong to a fandom I loved. (No, not hp) :shrug: Thanks god I've evolved.

Now I don't fav with that frequency... I just fav the works I am shocked by. And I don't submit crap. Why did I submit all those ridiculous drawings and "photomanipulations" made with photoshop? But... If I hadn't done it, what could have happened with me? Would I be here today, writting this? I don't think so.

I look back and think about those days... I discovered many things at that time. I think I started at internet on March 2004, with my new hotmail account, and I didn't browse too much around dA. I discovered a very special thing for me, kinda still like, but I'm ashamed of it because of the bad name fangirls gave to it.

However, now I'm not that interested in those things... My heart beats when I see a futuristic cityscape with wonderful tall buildings and a clean (or not so clean) open sky... Or a planet... or just beautiful clouds. Sky photography and sci fi artworks are my favorite views.

Ohh, how much things have changed!... I got two daily deviations, a print, and a lot of funny experiences. (And... by the way, I've discovered that the best features aren't the DD features, but the news features. I spend a long time browsing through the old news to look for easter eggs, and I discovered some really really impressive featured artworks without lots of comments and such. Check my favorite features:[link] [link] [link] ) ]]> ~Nissun WHAT? http://Nissun.deviantart.com/journal/8108818/ http://Nissun.deviantart.com/journal/8108818/ Thu, 09 Mar 2006 02:24:49 PST
I've tried doing it from oldest to newest, but then changed the display of my gallery and decided to start from the newest. And I read "daily deviation feature"


And I think... What? Seriously, What? (By the way... why is the ohnoes plz blue? xD ) It surprises me because... I didn't expect that. I mean, I didn't spend tons of time on that piece! :lol: It also surprises me because it's thursday, and I'm at home at this time, 10:36 a.m. Why? Because there is a strike for political reasons I don't want to explain now. And I'm at home, to read the daily deviation feature notice as soon as the day starts :aww:

I've been wanting to write a decent journal for some days... I felt I had things to say but I didn't know how to put all the ideas together... So I can write them here, later, editing the deviation, or wait until my dA birthday to talk about my 2 year experience here.

One of the most important points I would like to explain... just in general, is why I am here. I don't even know myself. I've been 6 months studying art, (I don't know wich grade of school is in you country, but in spain I am at the first course of artistic Bachillerato) and I'm quite good at it. My art teacher first gave me a 7, this evaluation she gave me a 9, and she says I've got a quite high level. And, even having done lots of constructive drawings, watercolors, and one acrylic picture, I haven't posted any single piece of traditional art here :lol:

That's because Deviantart is diferent for me. I photomanipulate, sometimes take a photo or draw... But I do it for fun, for the sake of making a nice image. Of course I also want to improve. And I think I have, for the moment. If you could see the very first photomanipulations I tried... :XD: I still have them somewhere, in my computer...

I've also felt worried lately... because I'm not replying to all the comments I have. I would like to thank each one of them (except the "cool" or "kewl" ones :lol: xDD but they deserve a little of thanks too ), but If I do, how? Writing "Thankyou :)" on each one? Doesn't it sound a bit... ?
They should know that comments, critiques and suggestions (well, I usually answer the suggestions) are a great thing to read, and even if I don't reply with a "thankyou" or something else, they should know that I feel thankful.


That's all. ]]> ~Nissun Hey watchers, I've got a question http://Nissun.deviantart.com/journal/7523733/ http://Nissun.deviantart.com/journal/7523733/ Fri, 06 Jan 2006 05:26:56 PST

Well, the truth is that I've been experimenting some changes recently. Mainly because of =lryiu's promotion on her journal. That increased my number of comments, favs, watches and views in general, and I have no words to say how thankful I am for that.

Thankyou, =lryiu :heart:

But today... Thankyou, *fearawaken, thankyou very much too.:aww:

I'm really glad, because many people likes that deviation, and it's also one of my own favorites. I'm specially glad because it became popular without completely beign the typical stereotipe deviation :lol: . I mean, my most watched and faved deviation until this day was the one featuring an angel. And it wasn't very special for me. But this one... (except for the classical dresses... ) Wow.

I've printed and framed that image, and I'll give it to my parents this saturday (or sunday) for christmas :shh: . I hope they like it...


And that's all I think... Well, if I forgot something I'll edit. I'm sorry for my language mistakes... But hey, I'm still nervous, cold, and constantly checking wordreference.com :lol:

Until today, I never tried to google it and find something relative to the robots and beautiful landscapes I saw.

Something similar happened to me with "Immortel ad vitam". I saw the trailer on a zapping show, googled it, and now I know Enki Bilal, I own three of his comics, and he's one of my favorite artists ever.

So. [link] Here is the page. Check it. I can't completely understand what Robota is, I know that it's an artbook, but I don't know if it's for sale somewhere...

Also seems that they are making a game for next 2006...

I'll google until I find everything I want to know around this. All I know, at the moment, is that I love what I saw... ]]> ~Nissun
