I havent done much of anything artistic recently... mostly just working in my gardens and playing with the cats n mouse inside.

i've been reading quite a bit since it doesnt require movement of sore body parts...

hopefully i will heal soon and can get some drawing into my schedule...

I have been working very hard on my gardens.  I should be uploading pictures very soon... so at least you can appreciate it all too (I hope).

Spring is wonderful... I spend all free time outside with my hands in the dirt... Before work, after work... I come in when the sun is setting and I can't see well enough to continue... then I usually read and head to dreamland.

I have missed you all... I hope to catch up on all your amazing works soon.

I have a subscription now so be prepared for a feature or two ;D

Much love... take care and be well. ♥ ]]> http://flugal.deviantart.com/journal/Our-Time-is-Unreality-241189866 http://flugal.deviantart.com/journal/Our-Time-is-Unreality-241189866 Mon, 09 Apr 2007 09:32:02 PDT Our Time is Unreality nonadult journals/personal flugal http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/f/l/flugal.gif Copyright 2007-2013 ~flugal

So I have a couple days to finish a drawing, matte it and frame it... and then present it to the local art association.  I'm not sure if my nervousness and apprehension is causing the issues I'm having ... or if I just am out of my groove again... but I have worked on 5 drawings and still not finished one or liked one enough to finish.  There is one in the works that is going well... I like the surreal feel and vagueness a lot... my plan is to go and buy the matte and frame tonight and then finish the drawing to fit it... that way I know exactly what size I'm aiming for.  I guess my desire to try new things was ill timed.  I found ]]> http://flugal.deviantart.com/journal/apologies-241510616 http://flugal.deviantart.com/journal/apologies-241510616 Thu, 01 Mar 2007 05:56:47 PST apologies nonadult journals/personal flugal http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/f/l/flugal.gif Copyright 2007-2013 ~flugal
I've taken a 'break' from a lot of things I was committed to.

I find myself in a general state of suffocation.  I can't bring myself to do much of anything and my motivation levels are at a seasonal low.  I could blame Seasonal Affective Disorder or depression... or I could own up to the fact that I dropped the proverbial ball.

I'll work hard on returning with at least one piece of art... and a commitment to answer notes, comments, and view everyone's deviations.

Hope you all are well...  ♥

I have been organizing and cleaning BUT... in a more relaxed manner...

and... art has kinda... ummm... slipped a lot.  I haven't stopped but I have definately hit a speed bump so to speak.  I made a book over the weekend... my "mock-moleskine".  I have two sketches started but set aside... just not feeling it...

Been fiddling with the watercolor pencils and watercolor paints these past few days.  I started a rather interesting drawing but ruined it post-haste.  It had to be destroyed to maintain my self-admiration.

I apologized today.  I didn't go out of my way... I just figured that during a conversation we were having regarding work stuff... that I would just toss it in there.  I would be the better person... and feel like I did everything I could to end all animosity.  Not sure if it will help in the long run or become trivial... but at least I did it.

1)  I don't drink anything with caffeine... No coffee, no soda.
2)  I like to watch movies I enjoy multiple times until I can recite random lines.
3)  I can usually be found in my bed sleeping by 10pm.
4)  I'm double jointed and can do odd things with different appendages.
5)  I dislike any vegetable on my sandwiches (sammiches).
6)  I had jaw surgery in 96 and have some metal wires and screws in my face (I'm almost bionic... okay... not quite)

There is something to be said for honesty these days.  A good friend can find a way to be honest no matter the results... they can tell you that the outfit you have on is hideous and not make you feel bad.  I would call it a gift... a virtue even.  Not every friend can do it... some can't find a way to tell you that you look nice even when you do... they lack the skill I suppose.

ummm... basically i was complaining about having no energy and doing basic chores around my humble abode.  nothing fantastic or award winning i promise.

i think i lost my groove... i have a few surreal drawings started... but no desire to work on them for fear of ruining them.  i want to watercolor but... dont want to waste the paper for a giant mess im sure to create... and i want to work on an entry for the :iconemptyheads: id contest but... well... i think i lost my groove... :paranoid:

cold.

tired.

exhausted and desolate.

the quiet echoes too much if left alone.

silence scars some days.

my stomach forced me to spend more time sleeping and resting than drawing or creating this weekend.  :(  so far today, i am feeling much better which is great... i hate being sick.

my motivation levels are so low these days... so much to do and i can barely get myself moving.  the urge to hibernate is so strong.  soft warm blanket, plush comforting pillow and a purring kitty... how can i resist?

i have to work today which has gotten me out of bed at least...
the sun is out.  that will help so much...

ack...i have to take out the trash ... i hate taking out the trash.

so many dreams last night... all twisted and bi ]]> http://flugal.deviantart.com/journal/vet-day-242275017 http://flugal.deviantart.com/journal/vet-day-242275017 Sat, 18 Nov 2006 06:06:40 PST ::vet day:: nonadult journals/personal flugal http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/f/l/flugal.gif Copyright 2006-2013 ~flugal http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/42479978/?&q=by%3Aflugal+in%3Ascraps&qh=sort%3Atime
he has another lil brown spot near his pupil... and the original one is getting bigger...
luckily he is still as sweet as pie :D and shows no change in behavior.  still my lil cuddlebug.
every night we cuddle... nose to nose under the blankets...  his purring is my favorite lullaby.  its been that way since the first night ... 4 years ago...

i think i might stop by and visit some friends today... been feeling a bit lonely as of late...

much love to all ♥ ]]> http://flugal.deviantart.com/journal/sawry-242279839 http://flugal.deviantart.com/journal/sawry-242279839 Fri, 17 Nov 2006 07:24:25 PST ::sawry:: nonadult journals/personal flugal http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/f/l/flugal.gif Copyright 2006-2013 ~flugal

I'm a tiny gal ((...i am an astonishing 5'6" tall... but im tiny in build...)) so i have always felt comfortable in tiny places ... with tiny things... smaller formats have become comfortable for me.  i know i can dedicate myself to the details because it wont take too long to finish... i can spend hours shading one part and not feel lost or overwhelmed.  i'm w ]]> http://flugal.deviantart.com/journal/wish-242316291 http://flugal.deviantart.com/journal/wish-242316291 Fri, 10 Nov 2006 05:48:25 PST ::wish:: nonadult journals/personal flugal http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/f/l/flugal.gif Copyright 2006-2013 ~flugal

today i have so many things i should do ... drawing last on the list.  some how i think i will manage to rearrange the priorities enough to fit it in...

my gardens are all brown and skeletal... i loathe it.  the only thing that keeps me working on cleaning them is the promise of greens and blooms next spring and summer.

this resulted in my personal preference of not smudging any of my work with graphite...   all the pieces in my gallery have been completed by gradations in pressure.

Is there anyone else out there that can't stand the thought of smudging their shading  (with graphite)??? ]]> http://flugal.deviantart.com/journal/blink-242345863 http://flugal.deviantart.com/journal/blink-242345863 Fri, 03 Nov 2006 09:31:43 PST ::blink:: nonadult journals/personal flugal http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/f/l/flugal.gif Copyright 2006-2013 ~flugal
-------

The last two years have been very challenging for me.  I have had such a drought of inspiration and artistic motivation that I lost myself.  I lost what I loved so much about ME.  I would pull out my artist books from college and cry because I really thought that I could never find that part of me again.  (I will hopefully get some pictures of these up soon).  I created VERY few pieces in the six years since graduating from c ]]> http://flugal.deviantart.com/journal/sigh-242358412 http://flugal.deviantart.com/journal/sigh-242358412 Tue, 31 Oct 2006 06:08:02 PST ::sigh:: nonadult journals/personal flugal http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/f/l/flugal.gif Copyright 2006-2013 ~flugal
