ima robot: monument to the masses

oh my god...i'm aging. so i've moved out, which is awesome. i am now (and have been actually for the past 4, almost 5 months) out of the "teen" age group...thank god that's over....i am surprisingly alive...umm what else...i'm in my third year of college and am already freaked/psyched about graduating (i already kind of have my course work and what not planned)...thinking about which grad school to go to...

i've finally started drawing again, which feels pretty good...i'm focusing more on full, complete pieces as opposed to a bunch of semi-thought out sketches. i'm focusing a lot now on composition so now they're taking longer. also, i'm taking this movement to where the pictures should look more like fashion shoots for a high fashion label than just some random person in a random pose. i like this cause in a piece of artwork, it has a weird sense of composition as art by itself, but then kind of takes the pictures towards that middle ground between an actual photo and a piece. mind you, i'm not saying they're realistic, that's not what i'm going for. i'm want the viewer to kind of get the feeling that they're looking at a fashion photo even though it's totally hand done. in some pieces it's more obvious than others (the ones where i actually put in my fake label's name for instance). i'm moving away from the anime look simply because i want to (i'm still keeping the super elongated figures though). these pictures will eventually be posted, once they're finished, but that will take a while...
