So, I haven’t posted in a while, I think that’s quite obvious. What have I been up to? Well that depends on the time frame were talking about. Since college, the past month, the past week? Let’s just start with this first week.
I’ve practically been doing the same few things. Driving, drinking tea, going to the beach, reading books, drawing, taking photos, thinking, loving. In the past few days I’ve been at Key West. I’ve had a great time here with my girlfriend. We’ve done a whole bunch of things and also nothing at the same time. I’ve been reading “Walden” by Thoreau and “Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance” by Robert Pirsig. Needless to say, I’ve probably been doing more thinking than reading. It’s taking me a while to get thourgh these books because in part, the heaviness and also the fact that I’m probably absorbing these books more than any books i’ve read lately. I definately want to dedicate a whole post to these books, but for now will stop at that.
I’ve also been drawing a bunch. I’m trying to get inspired by doing, because lately I haven’t felt so enthusiastic about my art. I feel like I should go back to school if I wanted to do it, but also know in my heart that school has nothing to do with it. I guess at the same time I have other talents which I want to perfect. Since I bought an iPad, I’ve been drawing more. I bought the Autodesk Sketchbook app, and it’s great! If your interested, check a few of them out.
“house in key west”
“Dove on a Post”
“Cocks!”
“Back Yard”
“Blue Moon with Cezanne”
“Apt’s and Sky”
“DJ J”
“Paradise”
I’ve been learning the shading language CG, and going through “The CG Tutorial.” I have been learning a lot of math lately which is definitely not my strong suit, but and getting better every day. I don’t really have anything to show right now, but will shortly. Hopefully some cool stuffs going to get developed from this.
That’s pretty much what I’ve been doing the past week, as for the last month, and since college…Thats a whole different post!
Yeah nice stuff. Good books too. I still gotta read Robert Pirsig’s book. Probably read two more Harry Potter books then pick that one up. I wanna read Into the Wild also.
I like the art work. The coloring or maybe shading looks light and refreshing.
Still working on how to make the shading more realistic.
