Saturday Night

Last night this guy Alan and a chap named Matthew appeared from the darkness to do some LAN gaming. now we've never been the most organised bunch and had no idea what we were going to be doing so we spent 3 hours trying to find a game to play. so we amused ourselves through other means.

Some Richard Simmons:




Then we arrived at the choice of the 2002 classic Warcraft III:


yeeeesss isn't it glorious.

Matthew and our nurishment:


Alan having a thrilling time with his E-11 Blaster:


Then they left at 2am. I went to bed and hard a most difficult time to wake up for 9:30am to set up tables and whatnot, which I ended up not doing but drove in and out of town anyway.

Saturday

I had big plans for today,important plans. Not really but I was going to get some work done, there's lots of work building up and if I don't do something soon the last 2 weeks of the semester arn't going to be any fun at all. No time for Christmas joy if I'm writing lies about art.

But instead of this work I did nothing, cleaned the garage, well it was more of a rearangement of boxes but atleast now I can use my wieghts again.



And now for something art related; I was bored last night and had a spare canvas lying around so I thought I'd try something inspired by a piece I saw on the wall of a Papa Johns Pizza in Bethlehem PA (Summer). It was quick and experimental but here it is:


Must stop being lazy, but for this evening Matthew and Alan are coming round to play games, something that hasn't happened for a few months.

Friday's Workload.

This is my take on the group illustration from yesturday. Ink, Pen and Chalk Pastel:


Yup, that was it, nearly worth using that amount of petrol it takes to get there.
And a picture of some bold colours:


Still can't decide weither I should use this blog to vent aswell...or maybe I'll stick with keeping it all inside and one day implode.

Retroactive post.

So I thought I would put these pictures here, so people could see my work who couldn't or whatever. These were from a two week workshop in which we had to create a "Vessel" along the theme of "Interior/Exterior" this of course led to "Clockwork Rabbit"

The Original Marquette:

My first clay bunny:
