Apr. 21st, 2004 07:49 pmMan, I fucking hate looking for apartments. Lawrence is queer. If you want an apartment in August, you have to get it now. Damn college town.
That's almost a lie, that "hate" part. I just hate not finding the right one and worrying that we'll run out of options soon. I actually get a thrill from walking into a bare living space and going..."Oooo...and this will go here, and that there...and BZZZZT! Not enough closet space."
Anyway, more of you buttfaces should look at my stupid doodles. I think I like my own artwork too much. Mayhaps it's because I haven't felt this motivated, or pleased with results, since high school. My artistic goals seem clearer now. I don't feel bogged down with emulating or gleaning "classical" experience. Not that I've stopped learning or paying attention, far from it. I'm just not paralyzed by it anymore. It's no longer a self-conscious road block. I decided that I base a lot of my decisions, my personality, on feelings. I want my work to reflect that. Sure, there are tons of people who, technically, draw better than I do, my boyfriend being one of them. But I like my "style", finally. Some dood at work called me the next Crumb. HA! Yeah, I don't think he really knew Crumb's work that well. I think he's just seen the documentary...which, know that I think about it...it's even more of a odd comment.
And, can I just say....I LOVE Magic Pickle. It was fucking well-written, refreshing, and...well, fun. His characterization is brilliant. Here's Scott Morse's website.
