1. Keep your hand moving. 2. Don't cross out. 3. Don't worry about spelling, punctuation, grammar. 4. Lose control. 5. Don't think. Don't get logical. 6. Go for the jugularIt's hard to think up of things to inspire artwork. My drawing teacher always tells me that we have to find "magic" to inspire us. I'm trying to write everyday, draw everyday, dream everyday, and somehow find time to finish all of my other obligations. When am I supposed to find time for magic?
Writing Down the Bones isn't really about fine art, but you can't dare say that writing isn't applicable to fine art studio practice. It's my last year of school, I'm trying to start from the basics. To do something great I first need to muffle out my inner editor.
Picayune. I learned this word the other day when I was reading. It's sort of a funny word and it stuck out to me because it was sort of cute... so I dedicated an entire poopy looking page to the word. It sort of reminds me of the word peculiar. 
I don't really know what this is but i think its okay for now... I like to think its a dinosaur frog of some sort. I really do like dinosaurs. Dinosaurs are kind of silly. I'm sure every child loved dinosaurs. It's just because they used to exist but now they don't but they are so cool looking, but they don't really exist anymore and to draw them ... well it's sort of "picayune", no?
I'm trying hard not to worry myself about things like that. I can draw whatever I want, right? The question is, how can I turn something picayune into something worth looking at?
So what I need to do:- Write down EVERYTHING that I can
- Bring a camera with me EVERYWHERE so if I find something interesting, i don't have to rely on my terrible memory
- STUDIO STUDIO STUDIO DRAW DRAW DRAW
