this is my first attempt at doing some kind of drawing with spray paint. i think it turned out pretty good. i still need to get used to using a can. it might take a while.



and this is what i do to keep me entertained during art history on thursday mornings


i need to have a better answer for people who ask me what i want to do when i finish Tafe. cause when i tell them i want to be an artist they go silent for a minute and have this weird look on their face and im left thinking "what? did i say something stupid?". then after about 2 seconds of silence they say "what? like paintings?". i then tell them im going to do painting, print making, photography etc. then they give me a look that says "oh, well, good luck with that one", it's like they think i can only do one thing, or that they didnt know there were more art forms out there besides painting.
maybe i should tell them im going to use my education in a way that means i wont have to work a real job. or that im going to use it to live off other peoples money. yeh lets confuse them.
(cause lets face it, living off other peoples money is what you do when you sell your work)
