Lunch Break!

Oh, how i love lunch.  Especially at my school.  Open campus!! Whoop, whoop!
I get time to longboard, work on my beloved blog, and be crazy.  It can get relativley boring though, at times.  Everyone tends to leave so it gets really quiet...
but then i go and--yep, you guessed it--climb a tree somewhere.  Surprising isn't it? Me, climb trees? No. Never.  ;)
But, unfortunately, as all things do, lunch must come to an end also. 
I look at the clock and --oh no!-- ten minutes.  Better get my butt back over to school and up the three long flights of stairs to endure, yes, two hours and forty-five minutes more, of school.  But only three and a half more days!! Yippeeee!!!!!!
Then it is time for my   (DRUM ROLL PLEASE...)

DYNAMIC CHANGE      DUN, DUN, DUN...

Blending Colors

Painting is a wonderful escape.
The simple motion of back and forth, back and forth helps to clear the mind.
That's all I have been doing for the past two days. 
Painting.  Mixing colors. Cleaning off the palette, getting new water, grabbing a new canvas and starting again.  
Music going the whole time and my mom repeatedly asking me to keep my door open.
For two days I have felt guilty about my lack of productivity.  Is it a bad thing that when I sit down and do art for two days I feel guilty?
Should I not be entitled to this wonderful artistic escape? 
So I repeatedly ask my mom what I should be doing and she repeatedly tells me to go back to my painting, go back to my painting.
Acrylic, watercolor, oil and ink.  Glitter and thoughts and songs.  Where is this creativity coming from? Why did I not find this before?  
The sweet relief of art leaves me feeling like I just came out of therapy, ready to face the last week of school with gusto.
Bring it on!

First Post!!

Hi Everyone! 
I hope people are reading this, anyway.  This is my first ever post on my first ever blog!  So Exciting!  and since it is my first ever blog, bare with me.  I'm just getting into the swing of it.  
The obvious foreshadowing tells of a "dynamic change".  
This said dynamic change is the main reason for this blog.  it shall remain a mystery for a bit longer though.  Can't give everything away right at the beginning. ;)
I hope you all come back and read more.  I'll try to keep it interesting.  :)
My wisdom nugget for the day:
When change comes up to you, take it's hand and skip along beside it.  Otherwise, it will tie you to the tailgate and drag you along in the dirt.  
true story.
ciao!
