Ill be in melbourne on tuesday But then ill be in Hobart like two hours later Just going for holidays, so hopefully that means inspiration to get myself back into drawings. My art is about as dry as my sex life now haha!

Uni I'm guessing? I damn are sure that I'll be freezing as well, the highest temperature in tazzie is below the lowest temperature in darwin (was 14 degrees last night here, its 13 below in Tasmania mazimum). At least I will be able to wear leather....

not only that you will be able to weather alot of things
you can't in Darwin hahaha!! XD
LOL!! I'll be in Darwin on the 2nd at 1am that moring.
Futhermore I in the same boat as you with your art coz
my art HAS become my sex life... I can only draw my
sexual frustration, as the real thing non existing haha
....at the moment. HAHAHA!!

LyrebirdJacki In reply to The-DeathAngel [2012-06-25 04:52:01 +0000 UTC]

Staying in Darwin or holidays before going back to melbourne? I wont be back until the 26th of July, a good month away from home.

Lol only time you can draw is when there is nothing/nobody to give you distractions. I cant even draw for 5 hours without a distraction so it doesnt get anywhere, but then when i do have time, my mind is on...other things Im sure i will draw at least something while i am away.

Pfft lucky you. **quote** at the moment hehe!

NNNNOOOOOOO!!!
I have 3 years of study... well 2 and a half in Melbourne.
So i am only going for a holiday back to Darwin and to kiss
the ground because it's a warm home, hehe

Really? I don't get distracted (unless i hate the artwork)
I find it relax me and prevents me from stressing out and
having a brain fit (literally)... i don't like them.

Yes coz at the moment the boyfriend is in Darwin T.T
hahahaha!!!!

LyrebirdJacki In reply to The-DeathAngel [2012-06-25 09:04:04 +0000 UTC]

I get regular disruptions from family. As much as id love to ignore them, it isnt as easy as it used to be. I used to work a whole day straight easy with essential breaks inbetween and still be able to work on pictures. Full time employment kind of interferes with art as well.

Ah yes, there actually being sunlight here, its perfect too because its cool and windy, plus its sunny so its like hot and cold at the same time, plus you can wear somewhat nice clothes. I wear my pyjamas around in public anyway, just some men's boxers and whatever shirt i can find, just cant be bothered anymore. So not wearing boxers down south however!

Going to be spending your whole holiday back in darwin indoors then hey? If you know what I mean

Hell yeah i am! if we can make it indoors
hahaha!!

Yeah i understand that feeling of artwork and work taking over
at the moment i got fired from my old work place so am starting
my own business so i can hire and fire myself! hahaha!! XD

LyrebirdJacki In reply to In-The-Distance [2012-04-26 20:53:23 +0000 UTC]

Yeah we haven't for quite a while now, barely get time to pop on anymore! I've been up and down lately, am on full time employment (no art anymore unfortuently, lots of half done pictures though which i should put in scaps I spose) and whilst at work I injured my left wrist working so I'm a bit out of drawing even if I wanted to...

How have you been lately? Still flying through uni?

In-The-Distance In reply to LyrebirdJacki [2012-04-27 01:53:04 +0000 UTC]

oh where did you end up getting a job? that's a shame you don't have much time for drawing, but it'll be nice earning all that money! Hope your wrist gets better soon.

Uni's good, kinda busy, but with a lot of procrastination. managed to do a bit of drawing in the mid-sem break (week) but during uni I don't feel I have enough time; not when I usually like to sit at it for hours at a time. In the holidays I plan to only work 3 days a week instead of full-time though, so that I have more time for fun things like painting, as well as being social, etc.

LyrebirdJacki In reply to In-The-Distance [2012-04-29 06:26:29 +0000 UTC]

Still woolies, but they decided to make me full time officially instead of just piling on hours without telling me The money is good, but it mostly goes on mmy car which likes its petrol and seems to be a target for delinquents....the driver's window was smashed in march (probably searchig for money) and i had one of the side mirrors broken off; however the person was kind enough not to take the mirror, just left it on the ground. Thank goodness it was a freebee car.

Well i cant say that i havent been drawing completely really. I have loads of sketches everywhere and quite a number of half painted paintings. Ive got a painting of an owl in a casuarina tree (i assume you know what that tree is, the one with the horrible seeds that fall everywhere), but so far ive only done part of the background. Its in oil too, quite nice and vivid but just havent picked it back up.

Well its better than the procrastination to even apply for uni that im doing, i probably wont do uni for a while because i just cant be bothered with it right now, want to have money building up and having fun at the moment. Probably will regret it when most of my mates are all on their way to high paying jobs when i just get started with uni

Ah yeah woolies, I remember now. You'll save so much money, it'll be awesome. And then you can spend it to your heart's content A shame about your car though xD that'd be so annoying with people breaking it. Paying for petrol is annoying too huh.

Nice to hear you've at least got some sketches going. Yes I know what a casuarina tree is; can't wait to eventualyl see the finished artwork. Are you entering the show this year? It's looming closer, though I dont' exactly remember when it starts, or when the entry forms have to be in by.

What did you want to do in uni again? I'm sorry this is probably the 4th time I've asked you this, and though I presume you want to study art, that's just a presumption. It's not like you HAVE to do uni; just do what you want. At least you're working, and not just bumming around doing nothing

Can't wait for the holidays to have some more time to paint again <3
