New Art and Nonsense.

I am actually excited today-I think it's because I finally made decisive action to go back to fine art.
Whatever possessed me to quit in the first place I may never quite know, but I do know that I've had a blast making art the past couple of weeks.
I painted, sewed, drew, sculpted, and all-in-all spent very little time on the computer, because I have discovered that I hate computers!
HAH!
So I'm a bit baffled that I would have wanted to spend large amounts of time with them.....craziness!
Now that I'm back from looneyville though, I will share with you some thoughts:

1. Pink hair is so much more fun than brown hair.
2. I don't like dramas anymore. No more movies capturing the pain of human struggle and suffering, thank you.
After watching a movie called Water, (which is admittedly a brilliant movie--if I saw it at another time or as another person...I'd probably love it though, ***KATH: DON'T WATCH THIS UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!!!***) had a few parts that hit a bit too close to home, and frankly...I have enough PTSD to last a lifetime on my own...I am focusing on lighter fare, like cartoons--Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends is a personal fave right now. Do watch it--it is brilliantly written and the character Cheese is the best part.
3. I don't like the cold weather anymore--unless it snows, then I am ok with it. I'm a wimp, ok?
Lex--please send me some 70 degree weather, ok?
4. I really like Pink Lady (tm) apples. I used to be all about the Galas, then it was the Fujis--but these are the PERFECT blend of sweet and tart. mmmmmm. And they have no fat.
5. I finally have a couple of my new pieces to post. Enjoy:

I think I hate my major.

So, I think I've pretty much decided I hate graphic design.
I mean....really despiseit-to the core of my being. I don't really know what that means, as I have committed myself to this major. What was I thinking?
Heck, I'm not even sure I like Art at this point.
I'm having rather a crisis at this moment.
I intended to spend the month I had off making masterpieces and creating and writing and such, but I've done nothing but carve out a butt-shaped spot for myself on the couch while I nurse allergies, and catch up on laundry and dishes.
woo.
I'm positively pathetic.

Must stop wallowing.

Ok...time to scrape my butt out of its comfy spot and start painting--or sculpting--OR SOMETHING!
I shall overcome!
fear not my duckies---all hope is not lost----this may require a shift in my thinking--and covering the TV, but there WILL be some f-ing creativity---if only in my last week off!
