Kitten Mittens

Work for group tute, Wk.8

My kind of 'style' has changed from what I've been previously doing. More playful and it still has a creepy kind of feel to them which I still quite like. I'm also getting back to the eyes! which is weird but better, they'll still won't be normal looking though..I don't think. It has been fun to make, still not exactly sure where it is going. There is going to be a little painting show next Tuesday at VCA. 

So many birthdays has happened in this month of April.. I quite dislike birthdays but I enjoy making the cakes though! All similar to the checkered one.

Christina's Cake, Mum did the decoration
Emilie's cake, My elmo!

Wednesday (Anzac day) Felt so shit. Day off, cousins and dad's friends came over. Celebrated Emilie's birthday. Just one of those days where I had a massive headache and wanted to tear up inside,whilst trying to stay maintained on the outside. This actually happens a lot thinking about it but it's alright. Kitty has been a big help
Went to the Finders Keepers Market last Friday night and got these! I love Dilka Bear's work. I went there rather early after class and there was a bunch of people waiting to get in or maybe it was for the taco bus..

Had a little presentation Friday, showed my little stop motion clip (another one of the baby in the shoe) which didn't really play properly/smoothly as I'd like) It was alright though, that class was soo long. Last week presented my watercolour window series which had quite a discussion.. 
Kitty in green frog socks!
These days I've been stressing over this stupid presentation and essay I need to do due wk10(1wk-ish). I know its quite awhile for some to get an essay done but for me, it's so hard. It still hasn't sunk in that it is due soon. I just can't put everything together. Actually procrastinating right now.. noo.

Malk


'What am I gonna do today?' I have a little to do list.. but my mind is telling me not to follow it. Why am I a last minute person.


Home desk. Also new painting I started yesterday night.

'Malk', 2012, gouache on watercolor paper
I haven't used gouache for a while, I thought I could use it like watercolors. I knew that it'd be different. Blending was very hard and frustrating. 

I've made some foood.
Choc checkered cake.
Panna cotta w/coconut tuile, almond toffee and strawberries.
 It was surpringly delicious! and a bit fancy 
I've also made a pumpkin pudding which I was really stoked about when making it but it failed. Only one tablespoon was eaten.

Goody pls

I upgraded to the new blogger layout.. I am not liking it so much. They should have a button to switch back :(
Went to eat in the morning at a buffet in Footscray. Laughed at Dolan comics! They're so stupidly funny, I love it. Took and nap then went to church.

Banana


It has been awhile once again. Gonna try and get back to it. Easter break coming up.
Highlights: job which never called me back, throwing up for a couple of days, painting, analysis, seeing high school art teachers and just sitting around.

Morning class was planned to check out artist studios but it was cancelled! and I didn't know about it since I took the day off before
(where I made a fail pumpkin pudding).. so I just rocked up there wondering why people weren't around.. lucky another guy came and found out. I was kinda looking forward to it too.

Things I did mainly today in the studio.

Sketch study: Unchained Melody (Bird lady)

In Progress: Darren


& the other two.
