Arting is a Forever Thing

Sigh...life never slows down. But art still happens! (If it didn't happen, I'd probably be dead)

I'd like to hear your opinion on this! Please comment with your own experiences and feelings toward this topic!

Once you start doing art, it feels like it never ends...there always is something in you that wants to do art, always and forever. This is in constant conflict with the other something that wants to be lazy, or is too school-oriented (other side of the brain).

Just so you all know, art is never an easy thing. Art is a struggle with the inner self, because there are always two parts of you pulling in opposite directions, creating inner strife. At least this is the case for me.

Here are some assignments I did for my art class (and other stuff too, keep scrollin'!)

(Prompt: Draw an object from a collection)

(Prompt: Draw a natural object)

(Prompt: Draw a scene using a word randomly chosen from a dictionary. My word was non placet...what? That has nothing to do with a lava monster? Pfft, see if I care. =P )

I got some MAGIC MAGIC Strathmore toned tan paper, and I LOVE IT.

Here are some sketches.
