If at first you fail, try, try and try again...!

...I swear, I can just picture it happening. ^_^;; -And hey! Look!! Listen!!!
I've done something that isn't coursework related and that is not Fanart for a change!

To make a story short, this is procrastination at its best. The idea of doing "original" comic strips has been bouncing in my head, and this is one I doodled today. Nothing brilliant, nothing WHAM BAM IN YOUR FACE SURPRAISE! ...Just a small vignette that popped into my head inspired by BOB THERE, HI!, also known as my "crazy" flatmate. Hopefully I can do better and more (and make it a series, who knows?) and justify the title "07 Random Court" (07 for 2007 but also fictional flat number. The Flat I'm living in at the moment is # *** Court, so instead of *** I put Random, because. RANDOM.) as well as justifying the rather ambitious "strip 01" in the bottom.

There. I've said it. I've done it. Let's move on. And yes, that's supposed to be me reading a book up there. Hush. Ignore the overall wonky-ness please.

Onto more serious day to day life issues...
Have submitted this for the Aberdeen Artists' Society's call for entries in Aberdeen. Why that piece? Because I did it last year (2nd year) (& thus I need not worry about whether I have it or not for the upcoming assessments) and have had it on my bedroom wall for quite a few months without getting sick of it. ♥
5 £ fee for non members, and a selection to pass. Will see if it comes through or not. Thus the title of this post.
( Those who see my locked posts know this is probably my third submission of an art piece to something. First two were nice "no thank yous" in case you wondered.).

Tomorrow we have a practice to help Anita from Sculpture organise a "multilingual" piece of work she plans to do on the 26th. The "happening" involves a dozen volunteers reading out loud in a different language each. I'm doing French.

And that's all I can think of to say in what has come to be a very arty-farty update.

RAURG!! XD

Be strong, girl, one day you'll be well-known :)
It sounds French a lot, sorry !
But I have not really understood what you are doing in sculpture ^^;
Is that you have to present a work in French ? ^^;

It's "conceptual" sculpture. It's all about the idea. Bye-bye the traditional sculpture of a bloke on a pedestal, hello random happenings.

So basically Anita is having 14 odd people all speaking at the same time in their own different languages. It was very very fun! :D

And thank you. *hugs*

Drawing comic strips sound really fun to me. Perhaps you can turn it ino a comic strip journal. :d

I hope your picture gets through. It's annoying that the colours look so grey on the picture, though. I always have the same problems when I try to take pictures of my oil paintings.

Wait. You've done Oils? O_o Where?

(And yeah, I know. Is an old photo. ^^;; )
*And second comic strip in the posting.*

I didn't post the paintings because I couldn't take photos of them. One is just a small plushie bear painting (copied from a postcard) and the other was copied from a Prague photo. Then I painted a Balanchine ballerina and then hid her somewhere in my drawer. I'm doing a few more. But I'm so busy at the moment. I don't even have time to write fic. :(
