Oh my~ It's been a while...

For Jackson Boelts' class- UA presents cover illustration- they only chose one to present 2008-2009... at least mine made it to the top 9, heh heh...

Digital Illustration- Jackson Boelts- Transference- I first sewed a teddy bear, took pictures of it then transferred it to Photoshop~ An alternating sequence of a girl having a flashback of her favorite teddy bear being devastated when she was little while eating a cookie in the shape of the teddy bear.
Digital Illustration- Jackson Boelts- Tale of Time- Tree that tells tales~ linoleum cut, inked, then transferred to Photoshop

Maybe I shouldn't have signed up for nineteen credits in the first place... Agh... So manyyyyy thinnnngs to dooo~! I haven't updated for the longest time~! I have a long list of things I want to do~ I might as well list some of them here:

  1. During winter break:
    • have a running web site
    • have a comic started
    • search for some quick/odd art jobs here and there
  2. Spring:
    • take advantage of the last semester to make awesome promotional cards, stationary, and etc.
    • have an awesome portfolio
    • apply for the Orvieto art program for the summer

  3. Summer:
  • Get a job...
Ok, after I graduate, if art job searching ends up being difficult, I'll be going to Korea to teach English in public schools. Teaching English in Korea had been my dream job since I was little. It's crazy now that it's actually an option for me. I have a couple of friends there, plus family~ plus I'll be able to be forced into practicing Korean- all so very convenient. Traveling at this time will benefit my artistic voice and bestow me with substantial experience~ I want to get out of my comfort zone- I guess, like all the other cool kids, ahaha... 

I can't wait to get into the box of Pocky for Men tomorrow when I drive to Phoenix with Sam. I really wonder why it is so manly? Dark chocolate? I still haven't got a chance to have a closer look at it...

Oh, I've started a Twitter account!! I hope it won't take too much of my time--- I'll try to make positive twitters, eh heh...
There have been soooo many projects and several sleepless nights, more than I've ever had!! Agh... I feel like it's (my illustrations and classes) getting better~ I hope it won't die when I'll be sleeping and lazying around during winter break... yeah...
