ive been busy trying to shy away from the actual art of things and do practice and experience work for my portfolio, trying to make more posters, logos etc for the interview at college for the graphic design and illustration course. i want to make sure ive got a little bit of everything in there so i have a well balanced portfoilo...
yeah

For some people it is the need to try something new which evolves their art, and they slowly move away from something they have been doing for a while, and attempt something totally new. Some people just feel they need to move on i guess.
And i feel i need to move on, hopefully im already succeeding. I realise im not a master of any kind of medium really but i was just stuck in a rut of just making these quick pieces for no reason other than "oh its what i do ill do another and stick it up next to the rest".
Im trying to expand my horizons in what i create. Ive been doing lots of gig posters, Cd covers, but i want to start painting and drawing again, i do miss it so. I also want to try doing some photography work, a kind of charles peterson sort of thing because he is my new hero.
its funny how people move on.
let me know if i dont change, ill be dissapointed.

anyone else feel like this/ felt like this recently and has come through it and if so how did you get back to it?

anyway, i have a few new things in my gallery so please take a look...

im fed up at the moment....fed up with the majority of life, fed up with the expectations i give myself that i never fulfill, fed up of having ideas which i cant translate into anything real, fed up of seeing my work and seeing the same image done about 30 times, all with the same colours, styles and themes, fed up of starting things and not finishing them (remember i was gonna do the three evils? what happened to see no evil?).

im fed up of being so inspired by all the brilliant and amazing artists i watch and favourite all around DA and feeling like i can never do anything near as good as they can.

fuck me im whiney...

were on holidayfrom college for easter
i have a new camera
and i feeling enthusiastic about my work again...
anyone else get that feeling from time to time that what your doing just isnt doing anything, that its not saying something or pushing you or just something to stop it from being the same old shit you always turn out?
maybe its just me...
anyway...
i need some kind of drug, be it legal or otherwise, just to top of such a good feeling...

im relating the whole thing to george orwell's 1984 and taking loads of grainy, black and white cctc style pictures and messing with them...im quite excited as i have quite a few ideas buzzing around my head...
or that could be a cold induced headache coming on..

Art. I'm currently failing it. Apparently. Yes the time has come for the art bitch again. It seems that in the only subject im doing at the moment that i like to think i put my heart and soul into, the one i care about, the one i'm actually putting stuff into right now is the one i'm currently going to get an E in. To put that in perspective, the lowest i can get is an F. Anyone wanna tell me im NOT shit at art for a change?

Paintings+Drawings. I desperately want to upload some of my paintings and drawings and sketches but my camera is being a bitch and i can't put them in the scanner (some of them are in thick oils you see) so gonna have to wait even longer for them to materialise.

Life. Life is ok i suppose. Sick of college but other than that life is peachy i suppose. Gonna go away on a long break sometime in the summer. Get my head sorted and my bearings together and look towards a long future of my choices rather than other peoples..

also if you get the chance stop by jaimek's profile. his art and style are a real inspiration to me so check out his gallery. many if not all of his works are for sale at quite reasonable prices.

i've noted that i appear to have a distinct lack of traditional art posted on here. i intend to rectify this situation as soon as i can, meaning when ive finished those eight or so paintings im doing (yes, i get bored easily), then ill take pictures and post them up here for you all to see.
does anyone else feel that this year feels exactly the same as last year did, and that the lack of change in feeling is dissapointing?

Am i excited? Not particularly.
Ah so do you hate christmas then? Again, not particularly.
Christmas shopping i hate. Christmas i don't.
So merry christmas to y'all. May all your xmas evenings be slurred, drunken one's.

Thankyou to all the people who have been commenting my deviations and to the few people who have ed some of them. Your support means alot to me
Lets hope i dont leave my account for another year again like i did last time

two days ago, as all those in the uk will know, was the day when the a level results were announced. to americans and other aliens who might not know, these are tests we do when we're about 17/18 before university. anyway, i had my results posted and they arrived today.
overall im alright with my results.
except one.

i cant believe they gave me a d in art. my passion. my parralel passion with music. my expression, blood sweat and tears is only worth a d?
this gets to me.
did i not do enough? or do they simply not "get" me. did they want a nice little picture of a field? a nice colourful perfect little house?
forget that. high art shits know nothing. you dont need a qualification to feel, to express, to portray and to get your message and feelings out there.

i need to paint.

so long smellys xx ]]> ~spin-city http://spin-city.deviantart.com/journal/9638273/ http://spin-city.deviantart.com/journal/9638273/ Tue, 08 Aug 2006 02:48:46 PDT Numero uno, i take this oppurtunity to update anyone without a life who read my past journals or my profile so long ago. Those very few of you would possibly know the name sarah cropped up alot. This is now, shall we say, an occurance that has been discontinued. I shant go into why as many four letter words beggining with f and c are used and it brings all the hate and pain back. She is no more. I'm happy now. Happier than i've ever been. This is down to katy daniel who i love like no one else.
Numero erm..two, i'm not sure what im going to do with this art sort of thing. I'm basically just creating and posting here so i'm ot going for consitancy of theme or category or any of that nonsense.
Numero tres, you do not talk about fight club.
adios amigos, and keep painting ]]> ~spin-city http://spin-city.deviantart.com/journal/6296747/ http://spin-city.deviantart.com/journal/6296747/ Mon, 22 Aug 2005 11:35:41 PDT this is simply because i have so much more time on my hands with no sarah around..but you people reading this have no idea who she is anyway so i dont know why im writing about it lol just thought id justify it..
anyway. i have artwork here now
expect more
peace

radiohead's "climbing up the walls" is on and it still scares me shitless..... ]]> ~spin-city http://spin-city.deviantart.com/journal/4530057/ http://spin-city.deviantart.com/journal/4530057/ Tue, 08 Feb 2005 14:14:01 PST On the art front, i just got psp 7 and...well it seems exactly the same as psp 5 to be brutally honest. Please correct me if im wrong. I seem to be doing alot of forum sigs lately so havent done anything artwork like, but really, have i ever?
I ate the best double cheeseburger and fries ive ever tasted today, im amazed! So thankyou to st. johns centre Mcdonalds...oh and special shout out to veronica.... ]]> ~spin-city http://spin-city.deviantart.com/journal/4360596/ http://spin-city.deviantart.com/journal/4360596/ Wed, 19 Jan 2005 13:39:53 PST Ok so i've just bored you all to death with that load of rubish. Art related stuff. I've got a few ideas but none i can really put into practice yet mostly because i am nowhere near good enough to even try and attempt some of the stuff i'm thinking of. Sounds exciting yes? No. Truth is once i've done what i want to do i'll realise seventy other people have done it before me. Bad vibes. I'm in quite a good mood today, makes a change. Must be sarah. Or chocolate. Either way. i won't bore you with anymore...... ]]> ~spin-city
