Art short

Just taking time to draw in the park. It’s quiet and cool. A nice way to meditate for twenty minutes.

Q and A

What is your favorite holiday? Why is it your favorite?

This in two was is not a shock and is very cliche but I love Halloween. I love movies like The Crow and Nightmare before Christmas. They were kind of my gather around the campfire films for me and my friends as teens. Even now when I think of it I want to watch Rocky Horror Picture Show. It just had all the cool costumes and special movie nights. It was silly, sexy and had candy. What’s not too like?

Hola Galeras,

Today was nice and I ate food that was amazing. A very vegan breakfast.

Q and A

What makes you nervous?

I have had this fear of success for a long time. When everyone is watching me do well in my art I get nervous. All the little mistakes I make to figure out things are on display. Funny thing is no one care about those things but me. It’s very silly, it’s all in my head.

I’m working on just making and not stopping to look around. I was better before I thought about all those things. Even if everyone notices and it’s not in my head, it shouldn’t really matter. I do it for the love of doing it first, and the success comes after.
