I have no idea what to say about this one. It didnt exactly start out normal, because I was pulling a weird face. Then I remembered I hadn't used colour in a while, so this resulted.

I dunno.

Except, this time I have spent sketching people in the streets and on the bus, I have realised how cool it would be to just chat to everyone. So I shall make it my goal to get a really nice conversation going with at least one stranger per day.

Symmetry!

My face isn't very symmetrical, so I felt like I should draw it as though it was incredibly symmetrical, and then I realised my other two portraits weren't colourful. So I made myself green.

Some little things I learned today. Bus drivers are only ever super duper grumpy, or rad as hell. Look away from the guy that is a metre away from me on the bus and keeps staring right at me - and of course I learned about leaving the white spaces in advance for watercolour drawings (even though this isn't watercolour)

Jittery

Welp.

I honestly dont know what to say about this one, except that I had a seriously tough time getting it to look like me (crazy pen went everywhere) - so instead I end up looking like a wiggle man with a much bigger chin than I

A Quickie

I was feeling quite positive today, and I also just realised how much I like simple stuff. So I made this simple picture.

Also, I have realised I dont mind how many people do or dont read this blog (no-one so far!) because I kind of like it that way. I'm also examining my reasoning for this, because maybe im just doing this because I'm afraid of what people will think? Or maybe I just like this like its a personal diary someone just might stumble upon one day.

Oh and about my sketchbook, ill make sure to upload that later, my scanner is still broken so im borrowing one soon. I will chuck those pictures in a seperate post.

and so! Today I felt French. I was French (and I rocked a mean French mo' ).

Which in turn has left me looking towards some specific reasons for my procrastination. I have indeed identified the internet (curse you internet!) as a huuuuuuge reason, and gaming. So I have simply given myself time limits, and set myself the new way of thinking (I kinda like this :D ) - whenever I'm procrastinating from something, I procrastinate to something else I was procrastinating.

So if I stop painting something I'm meant to be painting, then ill go fill out that paperwork I meant to fill out, or reply to those emails I was meant to.

So far so good!

Yucky picture!

Ugh, dont like this one. Ugly image, and I was feeling very rusty today. Simple as that. My art was feeling crap, came out crap.

However! my piece of inspiration and 'learning' for today is from a 'stopping procrastination' book. It seems I go with 3 kinds of procrastination. So from now on I shall no longer say I am a procrastinator, but someone who procrastinates too often, and can stop it.

I totally agree with this as I have changed myself immense amounts over the past 3 years. So I believe with the same willpower I can change my habits.
