Setting the scene...

Journal Entry: Sat Apr 12, 2008, 8:08 AM
  • Mood: Spidey Sense
  • Reading: Howards End - E. M. Forster
Imagine a dark room lit by a faint glow in the corner. The sickly yellow light falls on a face, and the round, hunched shoulders of something that might be human. There are words on the table, and words on the floor, multitudiness to the point of nonsense. Empty glasses of yesterday's water lie close by, precarious. Not an inch of surface can be seen anywhere. There is no floor, no table, just the light, the figure and the words, words, words... I smell exams.

It was my pleasure :), your gallery gives an insight into a really interesting way of looking at things, that you possess.

Thank you also for your kind words :blush:

you try and make like this is so much fun, but we know it to be quite contrary

I totally agree, when I chose landscapes for my project I wasn't too happy about it, but looking at Andrew Wyeth's work made me change my mind. I love the way he uses people to show the significance and symbolic meaning of a landscape :)
~kalix:iconkalix: May 16, 2008, 7:24:25 AM
I'm enjoying looking at your work and seeing your response to A-level! :)

Andrew Wyeth is a wonderful artist. I saw "Christina's World" at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and spent half an hour in front of it simply sketching and savouring and listening to a nice American man talking about it. I'm not a huge fan of landscapes but I love the way Wyeth handles it :)

Thank you so much for the watch, the fave and all the lovely comments :) I noticed one of your favourite artists is Andrew Wyeth; I studied him for my landscape project :D

I am alive, and I'm well enough. The Senior Portfolio requirement for my Creative Writing Major is kicking my butt. My poor, sore butt. :work:

But I'm graduating in June, so maybe THEN I'll have time to check my dA more than once a week--and then just to delete some stuff in my inbox and reply to a couple of comments. *wistful face*

Catch you later! :ahoy:
~kalix:iconkalix: May 1, 2008, 2:16:58 PM
Thank you *hug*.

I just want to say,

your dA page disproves your earlier feeling.

I'd been wondering where you'd gone! Are you alive and well?

Take your time or (since that really is a lot) don't worry 'bout it :P

Thanks for letting me know!

Okay, I've been failing to be around for quite some time. I have over 50 of your deviations in my inbox and, I swear, one day, I will actually comment on some of them. This whole year is apparently just a sucking void of time.

Mostly, this is just to say, "Hey, I'm alive!"

thanks very much for the :+fav: on Tiles!
