Just sent off an application form for a scholarship fund to help me be an artist or something or other. They're either gonna love it or think I'm some psycho. But I can live with that. Any opinion is better than no opinion. I guess this is what it's going to be like now, a graduated artist.
WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD.

message from above
walking home one day before it pissed it down, i was greeted by this.
always knew he had a sense of humour
gifts
Neil Morris, my printing tutor at LJMU loaned me this book. i never looked at it once if i'm honest, until i took it back and he said "keep it". Neil likes books and for him to give one away seemed a bit mental to me. maybe it was shit. maybe it wasnt. but i thought best to check incase.
turned out to be a gem.
it's a picture book full of mad collages, telling the story of a man called Moonglow in a post world-war 3 society. absolutely tongue in cheek and no doubt the artist was on one, influenced by some chemical substances. but who am i to judge? JUST LOOK AT IT.

everything about it, from the layout, the paper, the font, the smell, the collages themselves. AGH. i love it. i wish i'd thanked Neil properly.

it's been a while
and i have nothing constructive to show just yet.
well, sort of. i've been saving money and applying for jobs and applying for scholarships and applying for work experience and a load of other shit that requires applying yourself.
art has unfortunately had to take a back seat. i'm not proud.
but i've been perving on other artists work and it has got me wanting to do more work. so this week, when i get paid, i'm buying a brand new sketchbook, and brand new pens, and i'm gonna draw like a compulsive bastard.
edit - i will say this though, my love of music has risen to new heights. it is my constant, my best friend forever. the love will never end, even if the bugger does throw me a red herring from time to time. FOR EXAMPLE i've been bumming a band called Best Coast for a while now, no logical explanation (i heard them once and thought THATS IT - true love). i've just realised why i felt like this. they blatently rip off the Jesus and Mary Chain. BASTARDS.
