Blow your mind

Most listened: Jack Johnson

Current longing: Not sure, same as last week I spose

I’ve had plenty of time to think about this new life path mentioned in the last entry. It’s really strange as I have been doing this graphic stuff for a few years now and have had so much time for opportunity. Man I hate when I think like this, what I could have been doing, why do I punish myself like this.

I’ve recently been gathering some resources and preparing some new ideas. I have a few good ideas in the making but they are a while off yet. I’ve found a brilliant site with loads of really useful tutorials that I am checking out. I still need to find a better graphics board to post at. I just want to find a decent place where the members provide some decent critique.

Looking at what other artists have created in such short times, at such a young age is rather intimidating. This is doubly worse when I have been doing it for fun for a while and still ain’t that great. Thinking about it I think that the main reason why I haven’t flourished as much as the other artists is because they try new things were I have stuck to a set path. Although saying that I am comparing myself(who at the time was doing it for fun) to people that want to be artists. So obviously they would do that etc. Its strange when I think about it because I have literally only been an artist for a few days. I have learnt so much and yet feel so behind. I mean I have progressed heaps in the past few days. So I should easily be able to get extremely good in a month or so.

Recently photography has been at the forefront of my find as well. With Avcon on the weekend it brought up the topic. I have thought of several places to have a wander around and take some photos when I finally save enough for this D-SLR camera. It makes me feel so great. I have many good ideas.

Altho ’till next time.
