AS FOR OTHER UPDATES...

It is officially near the end of the semester, which means I graduate soon! The main problem is, I've got so much to do! At first I was pretty confident that I was getting work done, but today I was thoroughly looking over my portfolio, and I am embarrassed to say I still have a lot of work to do . We're supposed to have AT LEAST 12 pieces for our Portfolio, and I am only comfortable with putting about 8 illustrations I've done in my portfolio. I've been having so much fun doing etch a sketch work all year and all of these doodles I've been recently working on, but alas! Perhaps I have not dedicated enough time towards my illustration. I'm doing my best to remain calm and collected, but what I really would like to do is get a breakdown out of my system so I can get back to work!

It doesn't help that I am currently working on 4 separate portfolios instead of the 2 that is required of us. I have enough doodles for a separate portfolio, and I have been working on a web design portfolio as well, since that has become a recent aspiration of mine. It's been particularly stressful keeping it all organized, but I am confident that I will have my stuff together in the end.

But this is where things get tricky. I'm dealing with impending graduation, and suddenly, a wild trip to NYC appears.
This was not in my initial plans, but I was recently given the wonderful opportunity to go to NYC to etch a sketch people's portraits at a party. I need the cash, it's been my dream to go to NYC, and it's been a great aspiration of mine to start doing gigs etching. So it would be foolish for me to pass this up, since I want it so much. It's just the time! Where do I have time to plan an itinerary and book a flight and buy 60 etch a sketches and preserve them and ???

Alas, perhaps my rambling is eating up the precious time I claim I need. It's been quite some time since I've legitimately updated on my life here on deviantart, so I felt I was overdue.

LAST UPDATE: Creative Grants Project
I will not attempt to make any excuses. I will say school and such has been time consuming, and that is all. I appreciate everyone's patience on this, as I am embarrassed about how long I have been working on this project. I am excited to graduate already, so I can get back to working on the skeleton!

I'll close by thanking everyone who took the time to read my ramblings, and for everyone who has been following my work! I cannot complain about art school, because I know that everything I am stressed over right now are tasks that are beneficial for me as an aspiring artist, and the tasks I am anxious about are only going to help me.
