Settled...for now at least

Well...I know my vent-art is not complete...but I must say it has to be the only painting I have ever been truly happy with.  It's like...whilst I was painting it I was in a true trance and just went with it...no thought process...listening to the music and going with my emotions and feelings, no thoughts interupting me and clogging me up.  It felt so blissful.  That was until I stopped, ha!

After going to Dean's on saturday till monday I feel tonnes better.  There is no better friend than him.  He may be my other half, but he really is my best friend and was always a friend before we got together.  We may have gone through a rough patch and that is a huge part of my self-esteem issues right now, but after seeing him on saturday, it was like my world didn't exist and all the negative just flew out the window.  And after starting my project yesterday I know that I feel a hell of a lot better.  Something to do and challange me rather than beig allowed to wollow in my head.  It's not a good place to be.  It's really not.  I can't even express through words what's wrong with me...but it's there.  Though slowly, we (me, myself and I) will get through it =)

Here's the finished product:


I look forward to my next 'true' painting.  This will not be sold, it is souly for me, and I couldn't be happier with it =)

Onto my project.  For the past two days and three weeks to come I will be painting an amazingly large woman =D
She is big, very big, but man she's fun to draw.  I'm so used to drawing skinny figures, it's a great change to have a woman with real curves!  I can't scan a whole lot in today cause some of it's oils/oil pastels with lotsa white spirit on them...so still wet.  I will eventually get them up.  Not the BEST but hell it's just sketchbook work.  Got three paintings planned out to start sometime this week or the start of next week.

Hope you're all alright =)
