I had my art exam today. It was 5 hours long, and it was all going reasonably well... until the very last hour. Finishing off the last outer ring of my... thing? It's got a large variety of media in it. But, just adding a bit more colour and lighter areas here and there, and then being typically clumsy as I am, I manage to spill my pot of water. In fact I spilled it all over the 'Thing' I had just been working on for the past 4 hours, and bearing in mind this is an exam. For several moments I just sat there staring, not really registering quite what had happened. Then my teacher rushed towards me with tissue paper and every thing, and the exam invigilator, and we furiously tried to dab away all of the mess. Another thing to take note of is the fact I'm too lazy to change my water a lot of the time, so it was all greyish purple and murky.
But here's the thing--the spillage seemed to make my work better! I guess that makes a statement about my art. : P

I'm aware I'm repeating myself from earlier journals, but I should have more time to spend from now on. I can get home earlier on some days, and I have less lessons; more so because I've decided I'm going to, err... 'forget' to go to my physics lessons. I'll probably be more productive if I just do lots of past papers and get a good idea of the mark scheme. I'm never going to learn what we're being taught, but I can learn exam technique I suppose.
Mind you, even though I will have more time I'm going to most likely spend it trying to be less stressed; so, that's mostly playing computer games I like, or with my siblings. Recently it's been Diablo 2 with my two brothers, and a bit of the Hack/Slash Minecraft mod with brothers and sister and sister's fiancée also. In Daiblo 2 I'm running around as a lazy necromancer who has a bunch of skeletons do everything for him.

When I'm not playing computer games, I want to try and play around with my drawing style. It's been about a year since I tried drawings things more realistically; although it worked for a little while my drawings have just become more and more Disney-esque, and I'm not so fond of them. It's tedious to even try and sketch out a basic skeleton, and I don't like the faces. Therefore I'm going to play around with other styles(might look at American comics a bit)and try to find an easy/quicker way to produce drawings that I'm fond of and are worth putting on dA. Unless of course, you don't mind if I spam you with crappy uncoloured, unshaded sketches?

So now that that's all covered, you know where I might be if I elope from dA for a short while(quite a few people seem to be temporarily inactive anyway, I assume it's exams or international hiatus). If you're desperate to contact me and you're worried I won't be online when you want to contact me, then I have an email address, facebook and skype.
