I Fell Off The Face Of The Earth . . . . But I Be Back Now
Address:
11800 UNF Drive #3004
Jacksonville, FL 3224
Working World:
I have a job now. I be working at a local theme park kinda place called Adventure Landing.
Off To School:
Classes consist of: Art History Survey I, Drawing II (art is advancing beautifully I must say), Finite Math (Easiest class in the world), and Lit (With a teacher that wants his students to call him just Fred hehe). Over all just a very fun and relatively easy schedule, yet there are times when things are all due at once. For example, next week in a span of two days I have a portfolio review, a paper due, as well as two tests. Therefore, next week shall me hectic and interesting.
Well I have finally made a decision on my plans for after my Associate Degree. It is to go to USF rather than UCF. Yeah that’s right Tiger I’m hopefully moving into your area. I was just so extremely impressed with USF amazing theater department, that I feel I have not choice but to go there. All just seem so perfect, well not perfect, nothing is perfect. Any ways I kinda picked the wrong day to present this news to my loving sweetheart Kaden. The day I chose to say my peace was the loving day of Valentines Day (again sweetie I am so extremely sorry for that). I guess I just wasn’t thinking correctly.
Art:
I discovered this new artist that I absolutely love. I found a book in UNF’s library kinda by accident. The artist’s name is PATRICK NAGEL. He be from the 80’s time frame. When you look at his art it becomes very apparent. Most of his drawings were published in Playboy. Shruggs, what can I say. But his other work has been featured on Duran Duran’s covers for “Roi” for both the English and Japan albums, and an ad for Luck Strike cigarettes. His art is just to clean and dare I say cartoonish, yet it is detailed and realistic. It sounds like I’m contradicting myself but it is all true, at lest in my perception. If you don’t believe me take a look for yourself ( http://www.patricknagel.com/ ). I had a strike of inspiration when I was looking at the book over and over again (hehe silly me). I want to recreate them but rather then looking so 80’s I want to change them to look like they could be in this time and age. I’m just so excited about it. Weeeee.
A little while ago I was going through an identity crisis (do not worry not as bad as it sounds). I just had a hard time describing who I am or even what I like. So I was really worried that I really didn’t have an identity, so yeah. When again looking through the UNF library I found a book on an Russian costume/ fashion/ set designer. I have know of him before hand but only now did I realize that I am completely in love with is man’s work. My mom actually as a book of his work at home and I use to look at I all the time. His name is Erte. His work is so imaginative and again another artist that have very revealing works. Most of his costume designs are of women who are nearly naked, but the designs and the renderings are so amazing. ( http://www.erte.com/ ) yet another web site to check out.
Sadness:
One of my only friends that I made while I was here is going away after this semester. It is making me so sad. I will miss her so much. She has been the one making my time here at college a most memorable one. She be heading off to FSU, so if I attend there like I plan to I will get to see her again. That thought processes is really the only thing happy about the situation right now.
