It's Monday Again!

Thank you all for bearing with me this past week with no posts. I have felt like my head is going to explode, which doesn't bode well when you're trying to think.

I have been working feverishly trying to get several art projects done, and really feel as if I have gotten nowhere. I spent the full 6 hours in ceramics Saturday, and all I did was get several pieces glazed - nothing actually built. I will spend a good portion of my free time over spring break trying to get some of my assignments done. However, all my cylinders I threw on the wheel are now glazed, and at least half of them have been fired. I will glaze the mugs I made this next week. I have taken pictures of all of them, but I want to post them together once they are finished.

I finished up a still life in painting Wednesday, which I will take pictures of and post. I still have not finished my other painting, though I did get quite a bit of work done on it last week. Hopefully, I can finish it up in the next couple of weeks. I'm tired of working on it, honestly. I just realized I never posted my first assignment up here, so I will do that below. It's a copy of another painting (don't ask me who did it originally) but I think it came out pretty good.

I'm also posting 2 new pictures that I did in the past and completely forgot to put up. :D (You know you love me too much to hate me!)

The first is soft pastel done on pastel paper. I did this one in highschool. It brought 2nd place in the art show, and I was offered $20 for it, but thought it was worth more than that. It now hangs in my kitchen.

This second one I did a few years ago in acrylic. It is hanging in my front bathroom with all the dragons and fairies. I know, I know, I'll have to put pictures of the bathroom up. The problem is, it's not finished completely. I'm still working on some hardware and a new shower curtain. Perhaps that will all be short coming.

Have a great Monday, and hopefully I'll have something interesting to post tomorrow. :)
