Art of the Uncanny

Wed Aug 5, 2009, 6:21 PM
  • Mood: Artistic
  • Listening to: Cut Copy - Lights and Music
Hello! Here are a few updates.

I have gotten into an art gallery exhibit in San Francisco called "Unnerving Conceptions: The Art of the Uncanny." *Is happy* :heart:

Gallery exhibition dates for anyone who wants to check it out: Sept. 3rd - Oct. 2nd; Opening reception: Sept. 3rd @ 6-9 PM; Address: 1110 Howard St. @ 7th St. San Francisco. Gallery name is Back to the Picture/SoMa Gallery

Edit: I uploaded the postcard for the gallery exhibition as my webcam pic (since I can't seem to get anything from Photobucket into my journal :P).

The SomethingAwful art book collaboration, "Space," that I participated in can be bought here: [link]

As for my artwork, my paintings have gone on a short hiatus for now, as I have decided to pursue one of my other creative goals: finishing my illustrated novel! So far, I have written over 28,000 words in under a month (a bit over 100 pages, I think), which is awesome. I still have a long way to go!

8/5/09: My novel is now at 59,000 words. I am obsessed like an insane person.

8/15/09: 81,000 words and now I'm slightly drained and tired of writing, but my characters continue to haunt me at night when I'm trying to sleep. :XD: I have no control over them, they have minds of their own, I swear. And I love them all. :heart:

If I favouritised or commented you, it's because I genuinely like your work, I only bother with pieces that amaze or intrigue me :) So, well done! NO NEED TO THANK ME! Thank you for the inspiration! ;)

This is going to sound very silly, but do you remember that dream journal site you suggested to me, or do you still use it? I totally forgot the link ... and my username, so could you do me a favor and let me know of the link and my username ;>_> please and thank you.

Make yourself do the things you have to do, when it has to be done, whether you like it or not, it's the first lesson that you should of learned, but it's probably the last lesson you'll learn thoroughly.

Ohhh~! I didn't know you added me as a friend! When I joined the website, I remember just uploading like 7 dreams and then never going back there. ^^; So I never really browsed the site much. The one I linked to, is that the one you had in mind, or were you talking about a different place?
