......... I woke up today feeling very angsty-tortured soul-like and I began this new concept in my mind of a scrapbook-type story. It's a series of my exploration into my soul and embarking onto a journey of discovering my own talent. I've forbidden the use of anything erasable and I make vague outlines in blue pencil crayon and then go over them immediately with Sharpies and the like.
I have my characters down-pat already: the Ring-master, the Bearded Lady, the Gypsy, and the Spider.
I think I might scan them in sometime soon. It's by far the most impressive thing I think I've ever done but that's just my opinion because I'm getting into some really deep stuff and figuring myself out.
I would like to go out and buy some serious materials such as watercolours, acrylic paint, copic markers and the like and start adding in some colour. For now though, I'm content playing with what I've got and testing my boundaries. Already I'm more happy with the results than I've ever been.
I'm finally seeing "me" in my pictures and that's the truest delight that I've ever experienced.
