Everything's swirling together for the finish line: 1 more week of school left, and 1 week of solid studio critiques to look forward to. My projects (my babies!) are just about incubated, grown solid limbs, hot off the presses (so to speak). The booklet was the most nebulous until very recently. I actually wasn't sure if it would come together at all, but an inspired format change to the font was the missing element it needed, and I got happy with the layout late last night. *wipes giant anime sweatdrop from off of head*
I just have to figure out how to print it at a higher quality than a usual casual zine, give it an appropriately surrealistic-yet-delicious name ("Apocalypse Popcorn" ?), and then my first art-book will be done. Go life accomplishments. :)
Also, happy happy: I got more mail in my metal conjuring box!
A girl named Sailor sent me a postcard full of my favourite things: children's book cutouts, maps, paint names, bubble-balloons, blood cells, and.....
Beautiful bugstamps! I'm so grateful, these look like treasures. Thank you, Sailor! I'll leave them in their clear cage for now, save them for a world-saving letter, or perhaps save them forever, chittering behind the plastic making talk-time with Waldo and the swatch called "New Spring" :)
I do love mail correspondence... I picked up a bunch of free pastel boxes today, I think I'll fill them with small neat things and send them around the world soon. AFTER school is done being stressful, that is. Oh, I'm gonna go apeshit with the sparkles and reality tv after this week is done....
