Evolution

Gah, life is so hectic and busy @_@ I've been busy juggling school work, art, a new boyfriend (I <3 u Chris!!), and my mom getting sick.

I really need to get my scanner working again so I can post some new pieces and get the tutorial I promised AvariceTears. It's been about a month, time to start bugging me daily to get my ass in gear and get it finished, lol. ^_^;

For my Drawing & Design I class I had to draw a self portrait and I'm really proud of how it turned out. If my art teacher can send me a digital picture of it (the ones she liked and planned on using as examples for other classes were photographed x3) I'll post it up. I was amazed at how quickly I managed to finish it- roughly 2 hours- and considering the amount of ebony and shading... good lord. It doesn't surprise me that my shoulder and arm were killing me the next day.

On a completely unrelated note, if you are in any way a fan of Tim Berton or stop-motion animation, go see Coraline. I saw it today and LOVED IT!! Very dark and eerie, but a lot of fun. Next on my "To-See" movie list is PUSH. Looks cliche as hell, but for some reason I can't seem to understand I'm dying to see it, haha. Then I get to go see the one movie that has been pissing me off ever since the trailer was first released...

The Uninvited

Not only is it a godawful remake of an amazing Korean horror movie, A Tale of Two Sisters, that I completely and utterly adore, THEY ONLY DO HALF OF THE ORIGINAL MIND-EFF TWIST OF THE ORIGINAL MOVIE!!! GAHHHH!!!

Just goes to show you that you can't expect dumb American directors to understand the more intellectual foreign films... That's nothing to say of the director of Funny Games though. The guy directed both versions, so if the American one sucked that's his fault.
