Almost October

It's almost October. I've almost made it through the first month of school. A huge project marks my one month anniversary of school, which is totally lame, but I will be done with it then and as my mother says, "done is good" and "it's not finished until it's in your backpack." Though, the latter quote has nothing to do with this post at all.

Aside from my huge project of an essay and a powerpoint (the two things i am literally the WORST at, three if you add in that whole public speaking thang), I am working on books and prints. Not too much painting going on, but my research makes me want to paint so bad, so it sucks that I barely have time to do so. I make some occasionally, like today. So I thought I would throw up a piece I did a few weeks ago, see below. It's a mix of my drawing and painting. I am working on smooshing all of my interests together. I'm still working on the whole painting and book thing, which you think would be easy, but I am having trouble using my style in my book work, so go figure.

Today, I am working on a portrait of my dad in a more messy style. I need to kind of sit down and get a grip for my senior show next year adn my junior review this year, but for now I guess I am still messing around.
