So, along with working part time, taking a summer class online, applying for scholarships, doing art for zines that I've applied to (provided my work is accepted), finding an apartment and preparing to move for grad school, I want to finish this painting over the summer. It's of Saint Christina the Astonishing, and it's going to be a gift for my therapist.

Reaching that point in working on a piece where I lose any sense of reality and my brain just chants "I AM A GENIUS I AM A GOD" over and over. Well, working in customer service until 11:30 pm will certainly beat down that overblown sense of confidence. Off to work!

On one hand, seeing an in-progress artwork can be a fascinating and enlightening experience. You can see the steps that the artist takes towards their final vision. You can take comfort in the fact that even the most wonderful piece of art was a scribbley piece of shit at some point. On the other had, OH MY FUCKING GOD DON'T LOOK AT MY SHAME I'M NOT DONE YET JESUS.
This is where the magic happens. Easel, clamp light, many paints, many brushes, coffee, dragon figurine, and laptop set to a constant stream of horror films.

I will post a scan of the finished piece tomorrow, when I feel like I can deal with the undertaking that scanning a wooden panel will be.
