omg so many things working out right now!
wish me luck wish me luck!
Tania Hussain, you hypocrite.
- My sister got a job, finally! Which means I’ll be living back here again next year with her, and tania, and sonia and it’ll be so much fun having roommates I know!
- I went to a much needed artsystems trip and got 2 canvases worth $5, and a sketchbook that was $4. Such good deals. (Although I had to pay 12$ for 10 skinny pieces of colored chalk.
- I went to my sister’s boyfriend’s apartment and ate some tacos that my sister made. Free and delicious.
Okay, i’m done!
I wish Graphic Design didn’t rely so much on computers.
I noticed in my Type and Design class that the ones who are so computer-savvy have no sense of creativity and originality.
Blah.

I can’t believe I’ve never seen this guy’s work before. His paintings are amazingly rendered, and when I saw his drawings I realized he draws the way we are taught at my college. You can even see the beautiful marks under the paintings.
“Most people who have the opportunity to look for hours at one painting by Uglow find their eyes traveling over the surface, perplexed that marks, shadows and forms so limpid could crystalize conflicted emotions. The painter John McLean wrote, ‘These planes of Uglow stand for colour changes perceived with a keenness on might have said bordered on the hallucinatory, there it not reality that was in focus … His observation is so exquisite each discrete plane, each color rings out, like a note in a finely delivered song. The planes coalesce just like such sounds… This surface of a Uglow painting is beautiful. The frankness with which it reveals its constructions resonates as you read the continuum of form and space’.”
i love my Anna Cruz :)
