Once Upon a time...

Once upon a time in a far away place an artist filled with angst sat by his computer typing away. He hated his work because it was so contemporary which was the work he hated so much. The work he would like to do kept eluding him no matter how hard he tried. On several occasions he asked one of his tutors how to get to the point he wanted to be at, but the tutor refused to answer any questions saying it was too early to tell something like that.

Over the next few weeks the artist had become dusallusioned with the dream that he wanted so much in his mind. Now he thought about 3d though not his dream, it would be able to finance his dream till it payed off a decent amount of money for him to the dream full time...

You wouldn't think from those paragraphs that I am writing several stories that are half decent,*sighs* I have major writers block and I have come home hating every last bit of work except two, and I am pretty sure that one although is just an ink blot that I have draw around is from a cartoon, but I have nicknamed it skelebob until I find out where I know the face from. The other is a fish about to be eaten by some big creature.

The problem with both the images is that they are very contemporary and what they do in Illustration advertising manual sort of things that they have so that the companies can pick up and find an illustrator they like. *sighs*

*Slow Mexican music playing in the background*

It is I, El Khamsino! I have come to save all from dodgy nonsense that Khamsin ussually use. In fact Khamsin is El Khamsino's arch nemisis and I come to save all HooToo from really bad poetry.

*swishes his sword* if anyone see this Khamsin, you must point me in his direction so I can run him through and save the world from his evil deeds. El Khamsino will save the day for all!

When the italics kill me

I'm a Community Artist!

I'm finally an smiley - artist here on the site, I got my new badge and got initiated into the group not too long agosmiley - biggrin

Now before anyone sayd I am a badge polisher, I contribute two articles to the post every week now, both a poem and inside h2g2 see my archive at A3797184, I'm putting together some more comics as we speak, so watch that space.

I still ACe though not as often as I could before but I try and do so when I have a free minute when not deep in thought about one piece of work or the other.

I had planned on doing lots of work over the holidays but since day one I have been ill and last night I lost my voice. To add insult to injury ever since I lost it all my friends have started caling me... do they have some sort of thing that tells them I can't speak so to phone? Anthea thinks it is loads of fun me not talking and rambling on on one thing or another...

Anyways, off to bed so hopefully I can recover it soon, there won't be anyt load parties celebrating the passing of my artist examsmiley - yawn nighty night

Rant alert

Warning this journel may contain a small rant... okay maybe a very large rant, which is a shame that I have to post this here and not something nicer...smiley - groan

I hate my class at college there isn't any other way to say it but I hate the and would be happy if I never saw them again. I don't care what they do in their spare time, as long as I don't have to hear about it. I don't even want to spend time with them outside of college, the fact I put up with them at all in college is because I have not choice but to. They are immature, irresiponsible and dumb as well my nephews father. I have to listen to what they get upto on the weekends and how they waste their money and how they mistreat the girls they know especially their girlfriends and their mums. I am sick of it.

Today I had to listen to some porn video one of them had on their phone and a memeber of staff had to tell them to turn it off several times, then the guy who it belonged to said it wasn't his and another guy was a total suck up saying "boy that is disgusting don't plkay that again" for the member of staff then he started it up again while the staff was still there. As far as I can tell two are dropping out come september(why? they get no qualifications either way) and another is going to get kicked off the way he is going as he doesn't do anything outside of class and he doesn't do much in class either as well as the fact he is going to fail an entire module as the deadline for 2 of its assignments are this next week.

I long for the days when I am good enough that I'm not in educationsmiley - erm this might be some time from now. I plan on working from home being a book illustrator/writer. I have been writing a story or two but I have been so busy with college work that I haven't had time. I finish for easter next week and I had two weeks off so I want to get some writing done, and possibily some watercolours too.

MY poetry has slowed down a bit, last month I wrote 48 as I really didn't have any time whatsoever to sit down and write.

For anyone who didn't read Dr Anthea's journal, I have a cute little puppy now, he is so CUTE!smiley - biggrinsmiley - wow he is settling in really well and had his first injection today... apparently he isn't allowed out till ten days after his next one... so Anthea gets driven insane with him at home and not allowed to walk him for another 5.5weeks.

Anthea went to the art shop with me today and ended up buying a pile of silver and copper foil engraving art things, she is half way through the Eiffel Tower and its surrounding landscape. I remember having to do a similar thin in year 7 at high school but it didn't have a preprinted pattern on like that but it was no where near as good anyways....

I am sorry I can't hang around with you all more, but at the end of the day I really don't have the time anymore...

One thing to look forward to though is the comic I have made called inside hootoo, but I haven't quite finished enough to get it put on site yet... that and I think it will be bannedsmiley - angel can't think why though

smiley - sleepy I am so tired, but I need to get some work done... trying to get an evaluation done for photography tonight and then work on the presentation tomorrow at college so then I don't have to go into college a week on FRiday.I better get back to the evaluation

smiley - cuddle I hope you are all well, if you need me either see Dr Anthea or look on my PS for my email address.
