At times I get bored of working on Illustrations. I always enjoy getting away from that aspect of creating a image that has to do around a set base that has been addressed to me. It’s always enjoyable creating something where I try to have less control, and where no one else really has any input onto it at all. Until the end result. Being a student its hard to avoid it especially when projects are on the go for teachers. 

One thing that I use to be worried about is having a set style really. Now I don’t really know if I want a style. I don’t want to have this expectation of what people expect from me or what I am suppose to create (right now at least?). I find it kind of ruins the aspect of being an artist to some degree. I feel I am still in a searching mode. I’m still approaching images in a way that I really don’t have a fucking clue what I am doing. I don’t have a set way of developing an image or how everything is suppose to turn out. It definitely makes it more difficult, frustrating, but rewarding at times. Its a good way to figure approaches or ideas for creating a texture, graphic or some sort of emotion within an image. 

At times I feel so lost with images, that I don’t have the darn clue where to go. I really got into the aspect of destroying  a lot of what I create and trying to push it to some limit. It usually ends up worst. I figure at some point it has to pay off. 

(I’m going to try and write more on this blog schmlog).
