Stuff and Nonsense.

Most of you know that I'm back in school. If you don't, I have been since the summer of 2014. I'm heading into my final semester in January for a piddly little 2 year degree for Multimedia Production: TV/Digital Cinema. This fall term, I jumped into 5 classes; mostly digital editing and photography, but there was also a Creative Writing class.

I have decided to return to this hotdog stand because having words out there and ideas and inspiration floating about in so many ways is important to me. Most of you are creative minds and artists and stuff like that is important to you, too.
You understand that when the Muse speaks, you have no choice but to listen & TCB. My Muse has been strong this fall and she wants me to share her with you now.
So, if you're interested...I'm going to start posting recent stories, poetry, video & photo projects.

Plus, this:

My Lovely Lady

She's comin' along.  Still unsure of how I want to do her face and what shape her hat will be, but we'll figure it out together.

Jerm's Paint-by-Numbers: Complete

That was fun.  Made me REALLY like working with oils.  I feel a phase coming on.

Here she is:

I ended up tossing the instruction book out and mixing my own colors after I got the hang of how the paint moved around and stuff.  It really is easier to manipulate oils, whereas acrylics just dry so damn fast, you really can't move them around much unless you've got a fat medium mixed in.
I just noticed that in Van Gogh's original "Cafe Terrace At Night", there's no little dude on the right.  But there he/she is.  Was there on the base layer when you get started on it, too.  I didn't just add it in.
I thought it looked like a nun.
I did add a little alley ghost up there next to the dude hangin' out in the hallway towards the center of the image.
My stars are messy, but overall I like the way it turned out and the experimenting it allowed.

I hope Jerm likes it.  He's a tough critic.
