At last..

Finallly after so many hours...so many days o worry and grueling work my senior project is completed!! My soul in a jar is finally done after painting the wings, finishing the girl and doing final touches. It is truly a masterpeice in my eyes but when i showed it to Mrs. Flhor...she wasnt pleased. And fromt hat I learned that you just cant please everyone... I'm happy..thats all that matters.

How I felt: I truly like my painting. I never thought it would come out so well..and mostly becuase my mentor brought me down. But....other people like it...and i guess thats okay. Hearing this reminds me of all the people who others thought they would be nothiung..when they turned out to be something great. Anne Rice, Albert Einstein and Jim Carrey to name a few.

Time Used: 4 hours to complete.

A Day Off Equals More Time

Today I stayed home. I was really sad and I know i shouldntve done such a thing but i wasnt ready today to face the world. I would normally do it on any other day..but today.. i just...couldnt.

But toda with the extra time I took care a lot of things. I worked on studying for my japanese, I caught up on my math and i worked on my painting for a long while..

There was a lot done in that time for that was the first time I actually could work without any worries about future things or anything else on my mind. Also I had time to work on new techniques. for smaller things i couldnt do with a paintbrush I started to use a Q-tip, which works just the same. And it was nice.

I worked on more fairies, worked on the tiger and actually painted the young girl with the jar of water. i need to finish her bandana and her water jug, and also finish some of the blossoms on the trees. the fox i had to change completly for my poem said that the fox was black and not red...so i had to repaint him..which wasnt that hard.

also finished the lamb...save for his hoof.

How I felt: I was depressed first in the morning. when i woke up i actually ran to my mothers room and started to cry. however after i went through the day it helped my mood. and my painting helped me even more. I am feeling good....for i thought i wouldnt have any time for my painting and here i am making a great deal of progress.

Time used: 4 1/2 hours on painting.

After school inspiration

I came home early today due to the 504 plan. Becuase of my disability the shcooll must find me a way o transportation..so i simply rode the bus with the Smedburg kids. SO coming home I hade more than enough time to take care of a few things. Incuding painting.

Today i worked a bit more on the tree and also worked on the tiger ,which I think is not coming out too well... I'm a bit nervous about it.

How I felt: stated above. Lahought mrs flor taught me that you cant really make mistakes in painting i beg to differ. >>

Time used: 1 1/2 hour on painting
