atrophy-of-life

I get married in a week.. While that is only part of an excuse I am still using it. I haven't been able to add much as I have been very busy planning the wedding. Other reasons are career changes (which the 2 months I was jobless proves I did have time to do stuff) and trying to figure out how to block people on here. I JUST figured it out. Therefore I feel more comfortable adding things now, for example my save the dates for the wedding will be going up. I hand drew them. I usually make a costume for Halloween, however, due to the wedding  so far this year all I have done is buy fabric. My goal is still to be Sally from The Nightmare Before

Neeedless to say I did not have anywhere near the right amount of fabric and ended up tweaking the pattern to what I thought worked. I tossed 2 chunks they clamed I needed. Yes it may have looked prettier btu umm its a costume I don't care. I fianlly took the plunge and cut tongght then fiddled to see hoe it actutally works and pinned most o

When I was in high school whenever I was bored I drew little "fashion designs" on my notebooks. They weren't the greatest but I liked them. I actually got pretty good at it. I still have them. I've been thinking of scanning them in here. At least I'd have new work then! None of them could I actually make into a real garment but theyre cute and fun. So you can expect to see that soon. Other than that i don't have really any artwork going on. I'm contemplating halloween and if I still want to make my costume, It just became sucha a chore. I think I had decided on being Pebbles, because its simple. It's still up in the air. I'm also hand drawing
