Today's task is to sketch and resketch my new watercolor painting. I have finally decided what to do with my $18 sheet of watercolor paper. The new piece consists of a diner and a bride. I am going to do my best to combine my art portfolio with my future photography portfolio. I am sick of painting mundane images of cowboys and things that I see everyday. I want to incorporate new ideas into my artwork. I want to make art.
For the last three years I have focused entirely on creating a cohesive portfolio for Tarleton (consisting of nothing but cowboys) and I have neglected to make ART. Therefore the art I create this final semester will reflect my roots (vintage settings) and the statements I want to make as a photographer.
I am anxious to get started on these ideas, so that's all.

- You wanna know who I am and what I'm like, right? Well, I'm afraid all I can give you is what I think of myself. Well, I'm a married artist from Stephenville. No babies yet, but we're planning on trying sometime in the future. I am very caring about my close friends and surprisingly mean, and sometimes, inconsiderate to people that aren't my close friends. I recognize this as a fault, among other faults that I would like to change. I am a traditional artist, but I dabble in photography from time to time. I focus mainly on nostalgic realism and am planning on approaching some galleries at the end of this year with a new "biographical" series. I see myself as an extremely content person. I sing all the time, dance when I think no one is watching and I love to cook. I enjoy quiet times with my husband and my family means more to me than anything. I fully realize that hardly anyone will read this blog, and that it exists mainly for my own satisfaction! Thanks to those who give my ramblings the time of day!
