He does look kinda like John Lennon! Now that she has seen the painting, she does like it, but wants several changes done to it, which I don't mind doing. She didn't tell me that she preferred thicker paint application so I'll go back and work some more on top of this. And she told me the wrong size canvas but I can't fix that. And his eyes will be made a lighter blue. Billie doesn't have email, so I wasn't able to send her image updates during the progress, so these issues weren't caught until the deadline. It's easily re-workable though. I believe he was 18.
Maybe you had a migraine too! That's what I had. For a good 24 hours it was horrible. There's really nothing that makes mine go away, I'm lucky if I can sleep, eat or drive when they come on. I do feel fine now, it's always wonderful afterwards when the pain subsides.
I definitely took a big break today to shop, haha. Bought a new shirt and a pair of shoes... probably will return the shoes. They were a bit impulsively bought. XD But now it's back to the drawing board, got 3 paintings to finish in a month!!!! I hope you've found some good reference pics for your Alice piece. :D
So more work, eh? What about those pee breaks and whatnots, Funk? And 3 paintings to finish in a month!?!?
Ah well.
I have no idea what I had. All I know is that I felt like dying. Anything having to do with stomach or head issues bothers me. I don't like feeling ill and not having anything to fix it. I think my body is just reeling from lack of care and so on and so forth. Just have to chill out.
Ah, good ole shopping. What's that again? I haven't been shopping for anything in quite some time. Funds are nonexistent and everyone wants money, including my grandmother! It's like I'm surrounded by outstretched palms and fingers, itching to get a buck. But what can you do, you know? Once this new job starts rolling, hopefully finances won't be so strained.
I haven't worked on Alice in two days! I've been playing hooky. But tonight, I'll settle down and figure out her structure, for all this proportion and perspective bullshit is driving me right up the wall. -_- But, she needs to be completed by the 20th, for that's the deadline I've presented.
I wish you didn't have to support so many people! I know it's hard enough making ends meet ourselves. You take it easy, and I hope this new job will allow you to keep more of your money, and get more rest. Tonight has been a good art night, I hope for you too. Though I have only started loosely on things, at least it's a beginning. You understand how it goes. You've got some good time between now and the 20th, I know you'll finish it! There's nothing like those frantic, terrifying and thrilling last couple of days before the deadline, haha. That's what I'm looking forward to.
LAST DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Was that enough exclamation marks? I never know to say "when." :Þ
Yeah, my mom and me were discussing finances last night. Money is tight. I think the only people remotely close to being happy and able to afford bills and gas are the buffers (a.k.a: the Rich/Wealthy Folk).
I wish I didn't have to support so many people too! But it's family and you can never really turn your back on family...maybe put out your foot out every now and then for them to trip on, but not turn your back.
I'm really looking forward to this new job! Tomorrow is the DAY! Just sitting here at the current hell hole these past two days has further made me realize what a crock of shit this job was. Too many people dumping their crap on the receptionists, expecting us to know the who-what-when-where-why! I was ready to go postal yesterday and put a nice clean pair of panty-hose over my head, only to climb to the top of the building and shout obscenities and shake my fists. Quite barbaric, but this job brings out the worst in me.
You know, I didn't work on the drawing at all last night. We watched tv and junked out instead. But after work and the fiasco, perhaps. I'm just being so lazy about it, like I have all the time in the world, which in reality, I don't, seeing as how the 20th is only a week away.
I hope to not have too many frantic and thrilling last hours with the drawing! That would make me physically sick! >_<
I'm sure, with all you've got going on, you're looking forward to the sweet relief/release. Good luck with all of that! Remember to pee! :D
