    purplesue is too much of a boring person and thinks someone will realise

    Untitled 2 months ago

    Even though I’m always filling in a sketchbook at all times I haven’t filled in any entries for a few weeks, it could be one of the reasons why I’ve felt so down in the dumps or just because summers coming to a close and its getting so cold. I will start filling in the last sketchbook or notebook I had. Also I haven’t got any nice pens, all I’ve got is free found ball point pens, might buy some gel pens or coloured ones.

    The "beautiful" stuff that oozes out of my fingers (other than blood...) : ) 10 months ago

    So, this year, I took an art class, half out of interest, and half out of not wanting to take a yearbook class. So far, the first semester is over, and I really like it. Unfortunately, the sketchbook we use in that class has been neglected lately, so I want to get another one for my personal use.

    It will hone my art skills, help my observe things better, and just maybe, keep me from craving Krispy Kreme donuts.

    Now, I need to buy a nice, small sketchbook…



    One year later... 12 months ago

    After a year of having this on my list (and neglecting it for a year), I’ve graduated school and have more time on my hands. I don’t have a job yet (look at: my 1st thing) so I’ve decided to go buy a sketchbook tomorrow and start sketching!

    I've started 13 months ago

    I went to a local museum and drew for a while which was very nice as its not my main creative outlet and so I didn’t feel any pressure and just enjoyed it.

    Funny thing!!! I am not drawing every single time I can, but whenever I draw, I certainly keep it in a place to remember. After a long time this scketch book seems extremely valuable!!!

    Not only did I dig out my dear moley, I made my first spread in it too! I’m not brave enough to post it here but I’m very satisfied with this small start.
