Oh oh oh!!!

I am so proud of myself. You see, I like to pretend I have some maaaaad artistic abilities. Unfortunately this is usually all in my head - BUT NOT TODAY!! No. Today I was pretty much forced by two of the art teachers at my school to enter the piece I've been working on for about three weeks. It's titled "A Mother's Love". Basically is a charcoal drawing on newspaper of a uterus attached to a heart [colored with a combination of chalk & oil pastels] that I had done and then cut out and put onto some water color paper that I painted this dark red color [acrylics mixed with a drop of water to have it go on a bit smoother] then proceeded to make this nice detail design boarder around the image itself [in white], and there's some text in a font I made up in white that reads "A Mother's Love is Infinite" in a kind of pattern going down the paper. Personally, it's one of the best images I've ever created. I put quite a bit of effort into it, but yeah.. I'm still surprised how amazing it is. Pardon me honking my own horn, I'm just really proud of myself ha ha.

Oh and in addition to that - I had my picture taken while I was painting the background, ha ha. There were two people that decided to use me as part of their portrait projects for photography. After the guy [there was a guy & a girl] took my picture, he paused before walking away and was like "Just so you know - you're really beautiful." and I just wanted to give him a hug and be like "Thank you!" Is that weird? Hug a person and act like they just saved your life just because they said you looked good? I feel that's a little weird. Oh well ha ha.
