Artist Statement

okay im a new new new artist if there ever was one. i love drawing. i love charcoal. i love love love music. i love drawing with charcoal while bathing into music la la land. i have never taken any art classes besides two photography classes where i discovered that i have no skill with a camera whatsoever (is this a word?) so please dont be too mean while critiquing me. im dying to disappear from the world and only focus on my art. im currently in nursing school and its putting me into a mini depressive state. maybe thats why all my recent work is dark. well all my work is dark (color wise other wise its blissful). i think i missed the whole "identity search" psychosocial developmental stage of life that is experienced during the teens. so its happening now sadly. one day im this. one day im that. lately im enjoying "this." i have a wild imagination but its gets the best of me, considering i still have to watch cartoons as i sleep. my favorite cartoon right now is "adventure time with finn and jake." i like being silly and making ugly faces while people arent looking. and then saying "omg this guy is trying to hit on me and he has NO IDEA how ugly i look riighhhttt nowww." :) i llooveeee photography (but not doing the photoging). I also love erotic art, dark art, trippy art. i love art that makes me disgusted and scared. but i also love art that makes me say "i want to be there" and it will be some magical fantasy land that can only exist in my head and whichever awesome fool created it. i HATE phones but im addicted to mine. its like a cigarette and i REALLY hate it. i like writing mail. like old school stamp and licking the back mail. but no one ever really writes me back. except one really cool kid i know :) im spiritual but im slowly losing my religion (haha, didnt even mean to quote the song!). it makes me feel lonely at times and I want to reconnect. its the one crutch i have. its a huge crutch. i love piercings. and i have an awesome idea right now that i want to charcoal down on some paper, i hope i dont forget! and i love daydreaming. now please recognize that im a novice (does that mean beginner?) artist so please spare me the mean remarks! :( ive seen a few pieces of work that are on this site and im surprised i managed to get the balls to put m stuff up. enjoy. and i hope i dont have to write this over AGAIN because i click some stupid button and this all disappears!..... (I DID!)
