weird but interesting

July 31st 2019 (Harry Potters birthday!)

Yesterdays drawing

Ana Roxanne So I began listening to more of her music in the past couple of hours, and I'm a little intrigued by her music. I don't see any interviews of her

I wish/I want That I could have two gigantic, adjustable/tilted desks. One to put paintings/art on, the other to hold reference photos to glance at. That I could have perfectly organized art supplies and not make a mess each time I lose something and frantically search for it That it would rain I can travel to Bryce Canyon this weekend. I hope there will be SNOW even if that means it'll be too hard to hike down I can travel up to the mountain and sit in snow and paint and eat homemade rolls for a picnic That I wasn't so afraid of people and what they thought of me That there was a word to tell someone when they coughed, like there's a 'bless you' for sneezes That my hair was slightly more evenly blue, and not faintly teal currently I could just chill on the floor and cuddle with my pet rabbits and play animal crossing all evening, I haven't played animal crossing in a month That I didn't have an assignment due tomorrow morning, and I wish that I wouldn't need to stay up half the night finishing it That I would never ever let people down and be on top of my shit, and that when I do let people down, that I'm responsible to get back to them, and that I was attentive and 'there' for people in my life such as my siblings That snow was a little less cold That there was an element out there in between air and water where you could both breath and fly, like I do so often in my dreams I could scoop my dreams, sounds, and images straight out of my head into material reality without so much effort involved That I lived somewhere with mountains and forests and four tangible seasons and not such a hot summer That I could magically take a portal and travel to Norway or Iceland or many other places I could read books every day I could make books I want to see aliens. Really really bad, no joke That when I die that I could just fly across the universe and look at everything big and small I could spend one day each week just being outdoors all day I could learn about astronomy I could learn all about Carl Jung That I didn't feel like I needed to be at multiple places at once, or say multiple things at once That cat-owls existed That I could bake brownies right now and have them actually taste good (vegan brownies are hard) I wish that my ceiling was painted with glow in the dark stars, like I did when I was in high school, and make up my own constellations That I could go to Vegas with a few friends and explore the different areas and things to do That pants fit me and had perfect pockets That I could get lasik eye surgery instead of wearing contacts that only get rabbit fur in them (and last week I accidentally sat on my glasses...they're completely crooked) That I wasn't disoriented in the early morning That prehistoric horses were still alive and well because they look so adorable in those illustrations. Speckled mini horses!! Awww. That I could live to be the age of 103 and not be so dead-set/predicting that I'll die at the age of 73 That I could take that week long trip to New York and visit art museums and then go visit my sister and spend time mushroom hunting in the woods I really really want to re-watch the Tale of Princess Kaguya and Princess Mononoke That I get my act together and make fantasy map illustrations, posters, and mini comics/fairy tale illustration mini book things and sold those online That things didn't have words or names, that it wasn't so difficult to come up with names and words I wish I were 20% less self centered

I found these songs today The video snippets in this one is so beautiful!! I also love videos of street lights passing by at night. I love this one, I think I heard it before but then forgot about it. It was hard to find on youtube though because the Spotify name was completely different/no words at all, just symbols. I don't think spotify lets you copy and paste words. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3sZYInu3YYkyIXBif83ZCg/videos

Misc images

Ooh I found this in the shed today, in a black portfolio, I had completely forgotten about these collage things. The tape is falling off on the black one and needs to be fixed.

As I was sitting at my desk waiting for my nail polish to try, I stared at my black burning candle for around 10 minutes and it was the most beautiful thing ever. The melting wax made pathways like rivers, streaming down, slowly growing into upside down columns, in it's own predictably unpredictable patterns. Like it was alive!! -- What I thought was an annoying screeching bird living outside my window today turns out to be just an overgrown tree branch, screeching against the window in the wind.

@Gianna Yeah you can PM me any time in the future if you'd like recipes Have fun with your meal planning thing!! And thank you @PurpleTree Does anyone look good in orange? Haha. But no, I guess a few rare folk who can pull off wearing pastel colors can look good in pale or bright orange. And rusty orange-brown can look good on brown haired people imo. And thanks, I'll keep the pics coming.

@Gianna I saw on your recent journal that you're trying out cooking vegan recipes. I'm no cook but if you want me to gather some of my favorite simple vegan recipes just let me know. (Do you have favorite types of foods?) My roommate from a couple years ago used to do a 'cook it yourself' sent-to-your-door food package type of deal, it was more expensive than grocery shopping but she said really liked it because of how convenient and quick it was. I tried this earlier this week and it was the first time I liked green beans! (No idea how expensive coconut is though, I wasn't the one who bought it)

I have many questions looking at this one. Human eating snake tails?

This looks both aesthetically pleasing and not. I think the 'not' comes from my brain registering this as a burn of some kind at first glance...but it fits, yeah? Hmm...

My eyes didn't expect to see this! How do I feel about it...?

Classy. Nice, haha. When I was really little, my grandparents had this extra fancy soft cushioned toilet in the color of dark green. I was always hesitant/confused to sit on it, especially if I knew my brothers were at my grandparents house. I was very afraid for that toilet.

When I'm too busy to draw I draw what I like. I'm soo behind but I'm a-ok. Today's drawing Stars = Too much? It somehow looks childish, I think I'll hide them again and change the colors of the fire-wind-stuff so that it doesn't look like candy corn. The dark ship drawing will be turned into a watercolor painting. I've been sort of recycling this patterns a few times and morphing them, not stepping out of my comfort zone too much in drawing. Nobody translate this language, ok?

@mandyjw Thanks for sharing your videos, you have a really unique perspective and a way with connecting metaphors, emotions and words. I took a look at the scale a while ago and was very confused by it so I like hearing your thoughts on it. I diagnose myself as being thoroughly a 1-22. 'Doubt' is a sneaky one isn't it, haha. Anger is surprisingly large on the scale, spreading out to four points. I hope your Christmas tree is excellently perfect next year. TYPING ALL IN CAPS IS VERY ENJOYABLE FOR PEOPLE, YES I think I remember you writing once how swearing felt nice as well. I'm happy to say that my swearing level has gone up +3 since then and I've been swearing like a sailor (at least in my own mind...) I spontaneously wrote a silly poem for you that makes no sense. If I'm shit posting too much on your journal right now just let me know. Maid of the Mist The maid of the mist was a woman of grey Her cloak fine and silver, her hair bright as day She wandered the forest in her ghostly attire Singing out loud for her one true desire 'I desire an outlook that is steady and there But all I get is the other, my mirror's NOT fair For out is for in as for look is for sight. In-sight is out Of my line of delight.' I turn over my mirror and see something strange My insight is out and my outlook is in, How exciting, how delighting, now my Ex sight ment is there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVmG_d3HKBA

The composition of this image, I think it makes it looks as if the shadow moves on first glance 'Robert Frank' photographs, just heard of the guy, this road image is my favorite

heheh
