Hmmm...where to begin, where to begin?
Let's start with the arty art news. I am LOVING my newly lobotomized PC. I'm still cleaning up a bit for the extra space...but I really got some good arting done yesterday, despite it being a Dad day, more on that in a bit. I digress, I am using mediums I was drooling over, seamlessly...IF I am zoomed in...if I'm doing a mindless splatter of the canvas it does lag. Zoomed, it is practically seamless. There's a tiny bit of lag here and there...I'm working on two pieces right now....one is pure abstract the other will be surreal. There's a few rough sketches that are in the queue as well. I feel as though the world is my oyster when I'm arting. It's almost overwhelming on the choices I have to work with and the ideas flooding my noggin. I am going to clear a bit more out just because I'm OCD like that. Transfer some music on to my external drive that I don't listen to that often but is taking up space, some more programs to purge...I want as much space as I can get to maximize the program...I haven't crashed it yet, and in theory yesterday I really should have...nope...it's all good. I got quite a bit of arting in yesterday and I am planning on more today.
I do need to say sorry about dropping the ball on networking more...I mean to, I really do, time is really not on my side...I still have yet to make a set schedule for the balancing act. Right now I know balls are dropped but as much as I need schedule and order, if I get too rigid I turn into Miss Polly Pissy Pants. I don't want that to happen, either. The arting has really taken the main focus...a new safety net is emerging...and not on purpose, it's just that is where my focus is. Then there's the non-arting aspect of life that does need attention and focus as well...as I'm typing I'm thinking I'll know when I will put in network time in. I'll try it tonight, see how it goes. I know I'm missing out on a lot of artists' amazing work they do...
On a total different note...I wanted to take a bit aside in the blog to say R.I.P. to Chester Bennington. Lead singer of Linkin Park for those living under a rock. While, not my favourite band, there were a few songs that just really punched me in the feels. That's a rare thing. I give full credit to the peanut gallery for getting me to listen to their songs. What a talented man...it is a huge loss to the music community and to all the fans out there that he impacted with his amazing talent. So I send my condolences to his friends, family and all his fans.
I'm going to try and end this on a happier note...really I am...so in more news...the Dad day was really fun, it never really isn't not fun...but we didn't have too much to do, so we got to hang out and listen to music. I got to art a lot...and be productive...it's nice we can just hang out, he for sure isn't a guest that needs entertaining...he has that covered. We talk about everything and just enjoy each others' company.
On that note my dear minions, I am going to wrap it up, I'm running behind...I know shocking! I'm a day late and a dollar short...and the allergies of never ending are kicking my ass. Until the full update of Mondayness. I bid you a happy and safe weekend! Toodles!
