    You know, this blog has really helped me get over my fear of sharing my ideas. For a long time, I never wanted to tell or show anyone anything, I wouldn't even journal regularly because I felt that almost nothing I did was interesting enough to write down. Committing myself to this weekly blog has made me ok with sharing things, even if it's not the most interesting thing in the world. Is it usually well written? No, but hey...that's why I'm a visual artist, not an author or journalist.

    Anyway, here is a drawing I did for a drapery study in my class. Something I've always found interesting ishat when I use the techniques taught in class, he drawing doesn't look as good as when i just kinda go at it and figure it out. Maybe it's because I'm trying to hard to follow the technique that I get in my head about it? Who knows? 

    Well, I have to get back to my assignments. Bye for now!

      I don't have too much to share this week. I finished the primary patch sewing for my soda can pants, now I just need to add the can tabs how I want them. I haven't started on that yet, but I'll be sure to post pictures when I do!      School's been going pretty well. In my fashion design class, we have to go through the process of designing a hypothetical collection for a pre-existing brand —  brand research, theme boards, design mockups, the whole process. Honestly, I've always found projects like this uninteresting. Not because I don't think they provide valuable insight into the topic, but because I've never been good at leaning into others' aesthetics. Like, I have to research this company's "brand DNA" in order to make a suitable collection for their target customer, but what about *my* brand DNA, you know? I don't want to have to fit my creativity into the confines of some industry nonsense. My target customer is me and peop...

 Hello! I'm so excited to post my first blog post for y'all! My goal is to update the blog and weekly song every sunday. I'll mostly be posting about things that I'm working on, but I might also just ramble about my day if I have nothing else to report.       Currently, I'm working on using cut up soda cans to patch/embellish my clothing. I've actually been working on this for a while, but I've only recently started making notable progress. Here's an image of the pants I've been working on!  I also plan to sew the can tabs to the other pocket kinda like sequins or something, but I want to get the main sewing done first. I'll be sure to add the finished product to my gallery!      Well, that's all I have for now. Classes start back up on Monday, so I have to prepare for that. Bye for now!

     Yesterday was my birthday. I had gotten my hair done the day prior, but I didn't really do much on the actual day, just got boba and did school work. Here's a picture of my new hair (it looks a lot brighter in better lighting, lol). Can you tell I'm REALLY into the black/yellow color scheme? Anyway, I've never really celebrated my birthday. I've just never really had the funds or the social circle to have a proper party.       The last time I threw anything even remotely like a birthday party was my 10th birthday. We lived in Florida at the time, and the "party" consisted of me, my parents, and two friends from school. We walked around downtown St. Augustine and went on one of those weird historical tour things where all the tour guides are in character and stuff. We also ate at this really good taco shop called A1A Burrito Works, I miss that place. It sucks that they only exist in Florida.          Also, about the b...
