mixing mediums
Ever get the urge to create in a medium you have less than zero aptitude for?
Like today, I had this crazy urge to draw people.
WHICH I CAN’T.
Now, when I say I can’t draw – I mean that I can’t sing, and I can’t dance, and THEN I can’t draw. Think of an autistic person trying to do anything other than that 1 thing they are really good at.
But I felt the need to today. Must be kind of like what a phantom limb feels like.
Damn caffeine.
In high school I used to paint. At first I stupidly hoped it would actually resemble something. Then I just accepted that it was the feeling I liked. Now the attempt to draw? Resembles a visible fart and leaves me feeling like three-tard.
So I kinda understand. :D
I used to love to draw. Only faces though. My dad bought me this drawing book once, I wonder what ever happened to it? Probably under a pile of clothes in the garage…who knows. There’s gold in them thar hills.
I thought all the gold was in that scary fridge.
Dude, I loved Jenny’s drawing. She made everyone look like they were in Betty and Veronica. Meanwhile, mine…well, I already explained that.
