Like it says I'm at a bit of a crossroads. Simply waiting at the corner of now and the future waiting for things to happen. I've been delving into tarot readings alot lately. at least one a day. all are the same. I get most of what I want by Christmas, career wise.
Also I've explained my feelings, and why I feel them. well...to a point. I can't really express it all in words. and that saddens me. I wish I had the huge vocabulary I used to have before I quit giving a damn and stopped being so relentless in my pursuit of knowledge. I became relentless in my pursuit of career. Comics. art, drawing. In short I want to be in kindergarten for the rest of my life. Seems like fun. get up, eat breakfast and draw pretty pictures all day. It's just what I've wanted since I was five or six years old. Superman # 75. The comic that changed my life. it was a gorgeous comic. full of destruction and detail it changed my mind. I wanted to draw all the time. it started slowly in 6th grade. ignoring my teachers and drawing pictures out of my comics. It continued like that all through junior High and my freshman year of highschool. I managed to keep most of my grades up ( I never really liked Math and Science, so they suffered.) History never suffered. I love it. Freshman year I started drawign without pictures. developing myself. developing my style. taking bits and pieces of other artists styles. slowly morphing from a western realistic artstyle to a more eastern animated style. recently if you've had the ability to see my art evolve and change, you've seen teh switch to a more centralized, animated..almost...disney-ish style? it's a bt odd. I got further away from the bigs eyes and speedlines and went more for the big hands and funky angles.
I've started to draw sequentials. Learning and teaching myself how to draw a story. Realizing what's good, and what's bad, and what's right. See, good is not always right and bad is not always bad. Right is usually somewhere in between. somewhere...at the heart of things...Dynamic but not cluttered, detailed but not detail for details sake. I want to work for DC. I want to draw Robin. I may never get to. but I'mokay with that. you have to make sacrifices for a good long career the kind I want. You can't do what ever you want doing as you will no matter the consequences. That road is the road to Nowhere.
yesterday I saw Charlie and The Chocolate Factory. It was weird, but in a good way. Johnny Depp was as usual amazing. and every time I thought it was gettign a bit TOO creepy, i told myself "Marilyn Manson wanted to Play Willy Wonka" and all was good. Best Line : "Everything in this room is Eatable, even I'm eatable ( mispronunciation of edible), btu that is calle dCannibalism, and in most societies, that's frowned upon.
Today I saw Sky High. It was perfect. I absolutely loved it. It was liek a corny 1960's or 70's Superman comic. Predictable, campy, but FUN. Best Line ( Spoiler) : My Girlfriend became My Arch-enemy, my Arch-Enemy became my best friend, and My best friend became My Girlfriend. But hey, that's High School." And " A Love not Told is the path to a Heart Grown Cold"
Well...here is how I end things. Those that I love, you know it. Those that I respect you know it. Until Next Time, Do what you're gonna do, long as don't nobody get hurt.
