Spring '09: The Beginning

Yay I made it through the first day of classes for Spring Term!

Ok, so it wasn't too difficult considering I ended up liking all of my classes, but there aren't any breaks between my classes or work so I considered it a mild accomplishment for the first day. :P

I'm really excited for my Drawing class, I want to strengthen my drawing skills a lot! And I want to actually post some new traditional work on my website, so that will be beneficial as well.

Still haven't heard about whether or not I'll be able to get into the 3D animation class, but I'm just going to show up tomorrow for the first day and see what happens!

I really need to go clean my room now...lol

On A Rainy Monday

So far spring break is turning out to be pretty relaxing, which is what I was hoping for in the first place!

Yesterday I used a couple of my gift cards to BestBuy in order to purchase a slew of Kevin Smith films. I got Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, and Dogma. I find Kevin Smith's work to be incredibly entertaining and there's always some insightful dialogue as well.

I also went to Borders and got the first volume of "Flight", a compilation of short comics created by various artists all devoted to the theme of flying. What I loved the most about it was the varying styles of the artists and how they interpreted the theme through their comics. They're all super unique and the skill of each artist is incredible!

In addition to this I picked up Tim Burton's "The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy: And Other Stories" which is a great little book of poems. Each poem is both mildly depressing and hilarious at the same time. Each poem also includes a sketch by Tim Burton.

Well I'm off to watch Dogma and possibly eat a sandwich... :P

Sweet Deal!

Alright, customizing = done! I added a twitter widget too, just in case anyone would be interested in that...

I'm a little worried I'm over-using my color palette between this, my website, and twitter...but on the other hand it keeps everything consistent. But, if anyone has any input, let me know!

Wow two posts in one night and I haven't even told anyone about this yet -_-

First Post!

Wow, I have really started to get into the blogging and micro-blogging community lately. First a twitter account and now a full fledged blog!

Okay, I've had blogs in the past but they never usually worked out. Hopefully this one will be different!

I guess this will be the more personalized version of my website, scatterbrainArts, for friends and family who want to know more than just a simple website update. I'll post some of my website updates here, but if you want a real look at my artistic work then please head over to sA!

That's it for now! I'm going to start customizing! ;)
