katie's art thread

hurray for my own art thread! :)


here's some writing i did not too long ago...

you're the neverending bright side
you're the starfishes limbs
you're everyone's heart
and how do you do it? you're healing trees
you're making plans to stay above the water when the ship sinks
you've got ideas to save yourself, but
you're saving the world feasable or not
and you're killing time
you're jumping life lines with miles to go
no one here understands you and your kind of optimism
spun by spiders on a sad street
and crashes can't stop you, misfortune can't match you
you're reading a sonnet and impressing your stories
writing your books on a broad mind
you're finding your purpose, how did you get here?
delays can't deny you and paints can't define you
they'll never match your strength and grace
your grace, you're playing games with the russian ballet



it's not much but hey, i wanted an art thread!
now i'll go photo some of my paintings
:D

here's some things i did a while back
i can't find any of my recent work. either it's at school or i lost it forever.
oh well.

yeah. i went through a flower painting phase. i may never figure out why. haha.

in case you can't tell, because of the odd composition angle, it's a pair of shoes and an old fashioned telephone. it's done in pastels, and was actually the first pastel painting i ever did.

you're pretty good. I'm not really one to judge though, as I suck at art.

so i actually don't have any new art to show because my art teacher confiscated them to frame around school before i got a chance to photograph them for my CM
*shakes fist*

by _old_lady_peace
hehehehe thank you
i actually wrote that poem about my art teacher, odd though it may sound
she is one amazing lady


and anyway, i wasn't pushing to be nominated for that category. haha.
didn't we eliminate that category anyway? i thought we did...
but yeah, hahaha that was when i went to bed. :)
i think the 'fuck this i'm leaving' was just habit. hehe
