haha. i just realized that all my teachers and classmates probably thought i was skipping and smoking pot, while in reality i was home blowing my nose and drinking tea

bianca, it's like.. everything you wrote in this livejournal post i totally understood with the utmost complete transparency.. even though it's kind of weird to say that about a livejournal post. but really, i understand your pain. i myself am not particularly a very good artist although you may consider me a striving one or an artist with words or what not.. but i still totally connect with what your saying. it's like, you want the critique and the credit for an amazing art peice but when people get easily offended or just dislike your work, it feels like you've been exposed or you've been exploited..
i suggest you keep a sketch book at home, that can be your sanctuary.. the other one can be an open book for the world's eyes to see..
oh btw, dont mind mr. montez, he was the same way when i had him (even though i never had honors) and i've seen some of your artwork and it truly impresses me.. and i'm not just saying that because i'm a friend, i wouldn't lie.. if it sucked, i'd tell you "bianca, it's not that good" but they truly impressed me.. and artwork does not usually do that, so fuck c's... art should be about the emotion and feeling you put into it.
hey, i love long replies. i tried doing the double sketchbook thing, but the setback of me being extremely lazy gets in the way. im really glad to know that my art has touched some people (especially you. IF YA KNOW WHAT I MEAN. WINKWINK) okay not really but i wanna try to remember that when i feel like becoming a total art hermit. i mean, the school made those ugly-ass posters of my painting without my permission, then "congratulated" me. or some crap. art, writing, and just...any form of expression can be fucked over with someone else's words...if we choose for it to. LET'S FIGHT THE SYSTEM, GOLDIE
