11/16/10 Low Energy



Either my allergies are much worse than usual or I am getting sick, either way it was hard to feel anything accept worn out today. I did perk up a bit in class though as the history of comic books turned out to be much more interesting than I thought it would be. How to describe this feeling today. Well it was beautiful outside but I didn't really feel it. Everything seemed like it was tinted grey. I felt, tired, calm, isolated and a bit light headed. While I was painting I decided to listen to the album "Passion" by Peter Gabriel which I highly recommend and I found it suited my mood quite well. I'm not depressed, and I'm afraid my amateur painting skills may seem to give that feeling. But I do find myself starting to experiment with textures and my depth of field needs serious work, I also knew these were going to be more abstract than anything. They say an artist is his/her own worst critic. I'll be honest I didn't really feel like painting tonight but as I was I found myself still enjoying it and not rushing. I can really feel the externalization of my feelings happening and the focus I have while I'm doing it is very meditative.
