Art Post: Going back to "hands on" art.


DiGGiNG UP THE PAST.




I don't know where I'm going with this but I was sitting on my bed and something came to my head. I wanted to paint. I remember having a box somewhere and looked underneath my bed and there it was, this medium sized box.. FILLED with all sorts of paints and brushes and this color wheel thing I totally forgot about. A water bottle was beside me and a glass for display was by it, so I poured my water in there and just had this crazy urge to paint. So picture above is what all I found. I love finding old stuff and just feeling like it's new to me again, lol. Do you guys ever get that? Finding something old that you forgot about and just get excited over it!

We'll see how this goes. I'll be painting tonight and working on a few other things that I'm behind on. My art page is about to hit 11k views. (finally.) Although I don't deserve it because at one point, almost a year I quit drawing, I quit art in general for a few reasons... but I haven't given up entirely. I've been feeling bad about it. Even if I am wishy washy with it. I consider it a hobby, sure I wouldn't mind pursuing it as something greater but... I worry I will lose "my love for art" if I use it as a "job". Does that make any sense? I talked to a friend of mine and she said her sister was a graphic artist and actually HATED working for it. It's strange but owell.

S'why I'm so skeptic and unsure of alot of things... so many things I can do, but I'm still remaining stuck. And going nowhere! But someday! :]

UPDATE // WHICH WAS BETTER?

Tools: Plain Canvas, Oil/Acrylic Paints, Black Chalk, My hands! lololol
