Gallery Showings, Art Book, Dreams, Novel

  • Mood: Excited
  • Listening to: BT - Somnambulist
So, I will be showing some of my paintings at Club 93 in San Francisco, if anyone is in the area! YAY! :love: I'm not sure when exactly it starts, but I'll be dropping off my paintings on Saturday. (Probably "Android Lost in the City" and "Lifelines," maybe one more.) Also, I'm going to participate in the members art show for the Olive Hyde Art Guild (local!!). That isn't until September or something but the deadline is on July 1st. I'm thinking of submitting a couple of my bigger paintings to that one- maybe "Sleeping Consciousness" (aka. "Albino Girl Holding Five Heads or its Icelandic equivalent) and "Dream From Another World" which isn't quite done yet, I'm still working on it... slowly. :D And finally, I'll be participating in a Goon Art Book (Goon meaning someone who frequents Something Awful, for example, Pétur, who found this opportunity for me). :D The link: [link]

Last night, I dreamt about my characters, and now I miss them. >: I've been writing down my dreams every single night for the past month, by the way. :D I've actually been doing this since I was about 13, but there have been times where I stopped remembering my dreams for months. Then I found out that I can remember them simply by telling myself that I will remember before I go to sleep- and so far I've remembered every single one for the past month except for a couple. I'm thinking of updating my online dream journal, maybe. I'm kind of too lazy to type out so much stuff though! But if I do, I'll also include my most interesting ones that I've written down since I was 13. Maybe I'll also include my earliest remembered dreams, too (ie. from when I was 5)! I've been trying to have lucid dreams lately, so far to no avail (I keep getting "false awakening" though, when I'm too tired to get up and write down my dreams while still trying to remember them!) but I'm going to keep trying!!

But anyway, I dreamt about my characters, and now I'm thinking of maybe turning Shadowlight into an illustrated novel instead of a comic book! I already wrote out a lot of the script, I could just re-write it as a novel and illustrate some of the scenes! :) That way, I might actually get it done. ^^; This has happened with my paintings, too- I dreamt that I had a gallery showing (several months ago) which motivated me to start painting again. And now I AM going to have gallery showings!! Premonition or self-fulfilled prophecy??!!!

There will be thunderstorms in the Bay Area this Friday... I'm excited!! :excited: :giggle:

Skeleton, we are so close, but you have got no body so why do you insist on wearing clothes?
i love your deviant name. MENTAL is the key word my school friends and i used ;D we considered ourselves mental. our antics were mental. our thoughts were mental. hehehe.

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! ;)
thank you for the watch!
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?

:diny: :ufo:
Nah, that's the right place! xDD
