I've been ignoring my poor gallery. It's mostly because my art has changed, well, more like been destroyed. I try sketching and I can't stand what I produce. I think my stupid design school years has put a huge kink in my art. I'll sit down and get all excited about producing a new piece, hours later I'm looking at it, hating what I see so I put it away. I don't know what this is. I feel like I'm back at point one, trying to figure out what my style is and trying to bash some sense of ME into my art.

I wonder how many people have to start over after design school. I know it's very common to go through a several years long art block after college.

I have started to set up a print shop. Right now it's only a few images, uploading a very high res image taxes ones patience.

Workish: I've been working at a high end t-shirt company for a few months now. I'm designing for a market I can't afford. Hows that for irony? I design prints for t-shirts, do color seperation and will be doing fashion design soon. Hopefully this will be my out for graphics. I've been doing graphics for a decade now, no joke. I'm ready to put that "career" behind me and move on to the next thing. Whatever that may be. I have a feeling I'll never stick to an actual "career" but more drift from one field to the next.

Wanna see my designs, look for them in Nords, look for Glima tops. Thats my stuff. Woo. Missies.... again. *sighs* One day I'll design for MY market. Gothic, Industrial. I have so many great ideas I need to work on but I also seem to lack a lot of drive to actually take my designs from a sketch on paper to reality recently.

Next goal is to move to the East Coast in a year or so, snag a job designing for an alternative company. I'd like for once to design stuff I'd actually wear. I really enjoy my work right now, but it's frustrating not being into the style you design. Designing things like corsets, Industrial garments, it would be so perfect for me.
