I feel like I haven't uploaded anything of worth lately. Just scratchings and scrawlings and shit made of flat pixels on MS Paint. Although Squelch does amuse me and is pretty good for mouse drawing... I don't know.

I've made some decent stuff for my metals class. I should be uploading those in a bit. Not today, but when I've completely finished them. I need to make a different clasp for my byzantine chain project, and I'm not finished shaping my autumn leaves cuff yet (can't get my wrist into the space >.< I think that's a sign i need to shave off some of the cuff yet and round it a bit more to make it wrist like.

...sigh. But other than that... other than working or hanging out with my love, or sleeping, life feels a little boring. I feel creatively defunct. I don't understand what it is. I like shapes and colors but I can't put them together and make something i'm truly excited to make. Aside from what I've been putting together and what is already done. ... I think I'm going to go through all of my jewelry stash and try to figure out something. some pattern. some piece.

...something. Perhaps since the crisp October air has once again abandoned me in favor of the heavy rain-air that lingers on your face, clothes, spirit, everything... it's left me high and dry.


... I keep a block on my desk, a gift from someone I like, it's one that folds out and around and shows different pictures when returned to a cube after different folds. I keep it as a black cube with white quotes on it. I always keep one facing out. "The artist goes through several phases of fullness and emptiness, and that is all there is to the mystery of art." - Pablo Picasso.

I just feel like my emptiness phase has gone on for a while. Kinda stagnant. I'll see if something pops up in the next few days or something
