so the whole self-portrait thing has picked up a lot since i last wrote. over the weekend, i visited risd and absolutely loooooved it. i also got my acceptance letter to the risd pre-college program, which i will not be attending (it's pretty expensive and my parents can't afford to send me there the year before college). kind of upsetting, but i didn't get my first-choice major anyway. i've been working a lot from photographs or the live mirror on photo booth, making tons of small self-portraits. none of them are spectacular, but i realllllly enjoy doing something that i call "playing" which is not having any real aim when drawing, just letting things go. in this drawing i started using pencil and then added ink and paint and went back in with the graphite to add value. even though it's simple, and short of stellar, i still really like it. i've also been working on my sculpture but i've got a physics test tomorrow that i need to study for! ahh! school is kind of terrible...especially electric currents...
