Well, it's a new year, and the chronic lack of journals is annoying, even to me (although I usually don't like to bother people).
I've been having some emotional and physical issues, but I'm hoping that 2009 will be better. (Thanks

and

, you know how you've helped.) I'm sorry for the lack of deviations, I've been drawing, but nothing seems good enough to post right now. I've been fervently oil pastelling, though. Jerry's Artarama is an amazing store, and I got a set of 48 for about 8 dollars, and bulk packs of stretched canvases. Jeez, it's amazing - go check it out! I also got most of my presents for

's 16th birthday there...I'm hoping she'll share those oil paints, hehe.
I'm doing posters for our high school production of
Kiss Me Kate...I'm very excited, but I have to get cracking. None of this last minute stuff (but we'll see how that actually goes).
I'll be returning to Putney again (hopefully) for the second semester.

I'm hoping for AM Ceramics (I mean, making 17 pieces was probably the highlight of my year) and PM Painting (I've got to do some practicing first!) But really, I'll just be happy to go.

So, it'll be a busy few months (I didn't even mention school and running, but they're huge commitments now, too). With luck I'll get back to my job at the studio so I can make some money or at least take a free painting class or two.
Sayonara!
