Marie Antoinette!

This is my Digital Illustration final, we had to make an ad based on someone in history so I did Marie Antoinette selling cakes and sweets! I'm going to go back into and maybe put some text in.

The day our country kicked Mommy out of the house (for good);

Starting Fresh

Ok, so I'm now turning this into my art blog. No one even follows this but that's ok. I like it!

Last week my new nephew Carter James as born. He is adorable, small, and a spitting image of his dad:

Cute-ness!

Realization

I'm planning on making an Etsy (etsy.com) account. For now, I have a lot of random things from the thrift store and some things I dont want anymore. So I'm going to make a vintage account first.

I have a lot of idea's of artsy things I want to do but I dont have the time or money right now to do them. Hopefully in May I can start and work throughout the summer. My goal is to make money on Etsy (which can be difficult) so I dont have to find a job, which I cant find anyway. This appeals t me because I eventually want to work out of my home, own my own business with my own things. I've never been one to like working for someone else.

I'm going to post some art projects I've done on here. Depending on feedback I might sell some prints or certain things. I'm going to try and do some painting over the summer, I'm not very good at it but I'll try. I'm going to try and improve my photography and Photoshop skills.

I'm also going to try and do more photo shoots with people. I have one or two lined up for now. I like doing them and its good for practice and my portfolio. I'm a perfectionist and I like to be able to do different things.

Lets see how this goes.

  

Now is the best time to be an artist.

Now IS the time for artists. Just look at everything around you and its all different. People are taking ordinary things and interpreting it in so many ways. Just before I was looking at sneakers. Not new sneakers, sneakers from the 80's that have been redone and it was pretty neat. Simple things like that actually make an impact. Even in ad's or designs on tshirts have gotten so, so much more than they were.

Art is in my friends, and its only going to grow.

This Is A Start.

I know I'm copying everyone else with making a blog...but I figured why the hell not? I live in the most exciting city in the world so I have a lot to tell or hopefully will. My life is amazing sometimes, not always in the best ways. I dont know anyone here so I might as well tell it to someone right?
