Thursday

My car broke down nearly 3 weeks ago (eeek!) and I have no idea what to do, whether to take it in and see how quickly the mechanic can make me cry or just let it go. It's a hard decision, and an uninformed one for now. So I wait. But in the meantime I have been walking everywhere. Long, impossible walks. But the upside is the photos I've been able to take, though walking with the camera makes it even harder.

I've also been really sick the last couple of days, typically for me I have something due tomorrow. I always manage to time these things perfectly. Sigh.

I am ridiculous.

So now that I am back at uni I feel that I have more time to do things like this... which is pretty bad for my time management. But I want to show off what I have been doing lately - it has taken me 4 weeks to come up with these works, which is far too long. But after working all summer it took me a while to even begin to think about art.

So I have learnt to stretch my own canvas, which is really satisfying but stressful and hard. However, I am taking an easy route and stretching with synthetic fabrics instead. I'm cool like that. I've also been shoving fabric through my printer at home, saving myself a lot of money instead of going to the super expensive (but still awesome) digital fabric printing place. If only my printer would print larger than a4...

Oh, and Happy New Year. Heres to 2011! L xo
