What i really love about painting is that it can be not just an additive process, but also subtractive. I used washes of white spirit to peel away the oil paint, giving the effect above.
How do people with ADHD study? Good lord, I'm lucky that the class I am doing the major work in right now is largely informal. We basically read articles and discuss them in "class", which is an electronic message board. I still can't totally let go of my worry about not being "intellectual" enough. I don't do academic speech. I never learned it, and at this point in my life, I actively distrust it. Maybe my bias is showing, but if I can say what needs saying in a brief and clear manner, shouldn't that count for something?
I took some time off of work because it was making me crazy. I am hoping to go in in the morning with a clearer sense of boundaries for myself. Get to work on time. Take one hour for lunch, away from my desk. Leave work on time, headed for another library where I will read and ponder for a few hours before going home and going to bed at a decent hour.
On Thursdays I will head straight home so that I might watch bullshit television on NBC from 8-9:30. At 9:30 I will ponder why I hate Scrubs so much.
Today was a day I felt blessed and thankful in spite of some of my challenges. I thank the universe for being able to go to grad school. I thank the universe for being able to move cross country *again*. I thank the universe for helping me find post-divorce clarity. I thank the universe for teaching me to have faith in myself again.
Most of all, I thank the universe for bringing my playful, sexy, funny side back. I sure have missed her.
[As always, mocking me for being a hippie is acceptable.]
A concentrated collection of Central American artifacts, but with less desctriptive explanations or concern for artistic presentation for each item than in the rest of the museum.
I spotted this little kawaupaka (little shag - Phalacrocorax melanoleucos) sunnin on the shore of one of the ponds at The Groynes. It was so intent on sunning it allowed me to get very close and do this series of studies, each just a little different, with the beautiful sky-reflecting water as a perfect background.
Variously called “White-throated,” “Little Pied,” or “Frilled" the little shag is sometimes confused with the little black shag. The diagnostic features are short yellow bill and long tail, whereas the little blag shag has a very slender grey bill, green eyes and a shorter tail. The plumage pattern of the little shag is not uniform: the commonest form in adults is black with a white throat, and at the other extreme is the “little pied” plumage or totally black. Most young in their first plumage are entirely black but the extreme “little pied” form assumes the white breast with its first plumage. Feet black.
Distribution: Lakes, rivers and sheltered coasts throughout New Zealand.
Sign in Arabic next to an ornately carved wooden door. This is unusual for using the word "manzil", which means "house", instead of the more common "bait" (which also means "house") that you see in Muscat.
Effective studying technique or chaos in motion?
I'll let you know when I get my midterm back...
Update: Uh, so a 74% on the midterm. It was decent, but I am now cleaning my room so that I can do better on the final.
I've started drawing again. It's forced me to really look at my subjects.
It's been a long time since i've had to concentrate on one thing for any length of time.
For that brief period of time the mind is clear and the senses are acute....
The results aren't impressive but the experience is satisfying.

75 tons of baled switchgrass, a native cereal grain, are delivered to a Delmarva poultry farm. The grain, which was cut into one inch pieces using a RotoChopper, is being evaluated as poultry bedding material
I've started to oil paint. I've always sketched or used water color, but never oil. I'm finding it very challenging but also see it really helps with my photography. The study of light once again. This pink really got me. I love how reminiscent it is of Matisse or Manet.
