We were discussing how to get over artist’s block in seminar today and
Steph: What about you, Tess?
Me: I drink
Lowkey scribbling sigils in art seminar
I hate this class
i did however meet one of my favorite ceramic artists even though I was too shy to actually talk to him so I guess it evens out
We’re reading “Art and Fear” by Ted Orland for my seminar class, and while I wholeheartedly agree with most of the larger sentiments of the book (Basically, art is terrifying, you are terrified, we are all terrified), he really rubs me the wrong way in his more specific sections. He wants to seem loftier than he is, and seems to be writing from a very jaded yet not very wise old man’s view of the artistic world
Get your shit together, Orland.
Lowkey want to do artistic semi-nude portraits of myself for my independent study this spring
Highkey don’t want my professor to see that shit
My throat hurts again. Please don’t let me be relapsing
Do you ever have dreams where you wake up and you can’t breathe
There’s this place I love in Queens and it is so cute but the fact that it is cheaper than the bay area makes me think that someone was violently murdered there and now it’s haunted and that’s why its so cheap.
Beautiful agony
So I got my independent study paperwork back from my professor and was happy to see that I only was required to do two paintings!
They’re 30 x 40 inches
Holy motherfucker. I’ve done one 30 x 40 inch painting in my life and it was the hardest painting I’ve done to date so I’m like

But the art nerd in me is like

But I’m overall mostly just

It hurts so good
My roommate finally met my favorite professor
Roommate: I forgot to tell you, I had an advising appointment with (hot art professor) yesterday; now I understand his appeal
Me: Whoohooo…! He’s like…he LOOKS spicy, but he talks like soothing vanilla custard, and it’s totally calming, isn’t it?
Me: Hot dad syndrome.
Roommate: Vanilla custard yes. yes indeed. Yes please.
