Step Out Into The Wild, There's A Beautiful Storm In Your Eyes~

It's February!! Yaaay! I love February very much because it's my birthday month woop. Just have to wait till the 21st then I will be the long awaited sixteen. I remember when I was ten and saying to myself that that is when I will be  really old. Thanks ten year old self... It's also half term. February is so good <3 Lots of eating and sleeping I expect. So yess I've been more or less busy art wise recently. I'm working on quite a lot of things at the moment.

Lalalalaaa~

This was for a little school art project and I had to do it that day and I had no supplies whatsoever so I had to borrow my friends paint and scavenge around for something to paint on and I found some pieces of card. It was only later on until I found out how much card sucks to paint on. It literary absorbs all the paint so the blacks arn't sharp and layering succcks. So yes I learnt a valuable lesson with that... Oh and also it fell into my painting pallet... Which is why there is globules of random paint on it... 

Personal acrylics on canvas project I am working on.

Another acrylics school project. This one I am immensely enjoying. The brief was to find and paint a picture of something peaceful/sad/or quiet and I found one of a lavender field and I thought hey that's peaceful and quiet because you know flowers can't speak! So yes not very creative but I was running out of time aha. All the layering and texture adding is very fun. Loving it~ Apart from the fact that the canvas board I am using is peeling! I'm working out ways to combat this but nothing seems to be working. Very sad indeed... With flowers (and a mass of flowers) I am very inspired by Claude Monet and how he paints flowers although my work is clearly no where in the league as his haha. When I was little around eight or nine years old I saw one of his paintings on telly and I remember being in awe at how he paints the way he paints and how he uses colours like in these two below so I think he has to be one of my big inspirers. Truly amazing!!~

Okay so today I have listened to this song on repeat alllll day. It's beautiful. Can't wait for his new EP Into The Wild to come out on the 26th of March! My friend and I are going to see him in concert on the 17th of March I'm so excited!!! His name is Lewis Watson and his voice is just amazing. If you like Ed Sheeran then you will love Lewis. He also reminds me of Bombay Bicycle Club but maybe that's just me. Listen and fall in love.

Have an awesome day ;3
