I hung out in a book store for about 2 hours tonight. It was quite nice, being surrounded by the things I love. Art, writing supplies, literature, music, films. For once a Barnes & Noble location that had just about everything I've been looking for. I had to continuously convince myself not to buy anything. I only walked out with 10 bucks worth of things. I did good, Alex Grey calendar and a post card for a future PostSecret. I definitely need an Amazon.com giftcard so I can splurrrrrrrrgeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!! Hehe.
I've come to the conclusion that I really need to make the best of my artistic skills. I need to stop holding the bar up so high for realism. I vastly respect and admire realistic art with so much passion and awe that I subconsciously and consciously degrade myself in my own skills merely because they do not hold much realism at all. I need to dig in and try any and every art style I can to find what fits me instead of doing what I like yet cannot achieve. I need a change in that scenery. Something that works for me and to stop talking myself down.
