but it's pouring

bleeeeeeeeahhh

so i did end up working on my own stuff, but it turned out to be in writing form rather than illustration or music. at least for the moment, that's what i'm working on. so sorry there's no real previews or anything. buuut i have been working on final stuff for the painting class i'm taking, and the very last assignment is to do some painting in the style of an internationally recognized artist. so i just picked rembrandt and am painting myself. and ow i look super emo and depressed, prob cause of the rembrandt color palette and also i'm not making any kind of facial expression, but i've been told that my neutral face either looks angry or sad. so i guess it's the sad neutral face. haha

the color's off... thanks to my only camera, the good ol point and shoot. not that i have anything against it, it's just .. a point and shoot.

i still have to do more touchups. and write a paper?!?! and make 15 copies of it?!
