planar analysis

This is difficult for me, I understand it when I see images of it, but when I actually try to figure it out, I have problems. I'm not sure why it's so hard for me to think of, I guess I have a lot of difficulty converting 2-d images to 3-d, but that's what art is . . . really I should just practice it and stop complaining about how bad I am, but complaining is so much easier! Well, I will practice. I bought my paper and bigger drawing board, so now I just need to plan out where and how I will do my next homework assignment. Apparently I will be doing it all tonight, since I will have 0 free-time this weekend . . . work sucks

yaaay for internet! ^-^

Finally! My brother and I got internet yesterday and I'm finally able to use it!
For once I don't have a lot of homework, which is awesome. I'm super tired after getting 3 hours of sleep but somehow still can't manage to get to bed . . .
This intuitive perspective is finally becoming a little easier, but now we have these weird grid things that I'm having a hard time comprehending. I hope that tomorrow I will understand it better, otherwise my homework's really gonna suck . . .

a perspective on perspectives . . .

Snow day!
I was so happy that I had all of Monday to work on homework. I can't believe I was still so behind though, I slept for 1.5 hours on Tuesday night trying to finish my 3-D design homework . . . blah >.<

Anyway though, I got to spend a lot of time on my 2-point perspective homework which was great! I have a problem getting my lines darker, and for some reason I thought it was okay if we used charcoal, but apparently I was wrong . . . so next time I guess I'll use a really really light pencil then go over the parts I want to make darker with the 4B. I had problems with the perspective, and was fighting with myself over what I saw and how to put it into 2-point rather than draw it how I saw it. I also tried to fill my background in on the right side. That was very difficult for me, especially the ceiling above the kitchen and above the front door. I wasn't sure how to place those . . . The counter also didn't seem to have a bottom, because if I made it have one, it appeared really really long, when it was much shorter. I guess I should've just shortened the width of it, that would've made more sense.

This intuitive perspective has got me, too. I'm very bad at that. My eyes are bad, anyways, and I'm not good at judging distance. Oh well, I can do this, right? :P

life in general and random bitchings

I really had fun with the linear perspective of my new kitchen in our apartment. There were a lot of things wrong with it, though. I didn't push the line variation as much and it was pretty cramped. I'm hoping to rework it and add more detail in it. The scaling was off, too, so I'll have to fix that. But overall it was fun, I just wish that I had more time to do it. Moving is not so fun, especially in snow . . . It was okay though, I just hope work doesn't get in the way too much. I hardly have time to work on my projects which is a very bad thing right now . . . I really want to devote more time to it. It's kind of pointless for me to pay for college if I can't even do my best . . .
I had 2 hours of sleep last night because of my 3-D design homework so I'm pretty dead right now. Can't wait to get internet, whenever that's happening. I can't live without it, it makes my life very difficult and I feel disconnected . . . OK enough whinning, I'm heading to class ;p
