I love to draw (or paint, or colour, or cut things out of paper, or anything in that general genre) It makes me happy.

 

I like to draw people most of all. I think my sister is the prettiest person I know, she's the focus of a lot of my drawings. She has all the right angles and makes the best facial expressions. She also takes more photos of herself then anyone I know. Which means even when we're both at school I have plenty of points of reference. 


I draw my friends too. I drew this of my first serious boyfriend back when he was still my boyfriend. (it's kind of strange looking but it was based off a kind of strange photo of him) He was all musically gifted and wrote me a song. I am definitely NOT musically gifted. So I can't write people songs, but I can draw. 
 

I made this one for a friend. It's currently hanging up in his apartment. I love making things for my friends but I feel like it's pretentious to just do it, like saying "oh my art is so lovely. Don't you want some?." So it makes me feel good when they ask me to make them something.  

I love ballet. My whole life I have always loved it. I used to take ballet but quit a couple years ago because I didn't have time. I was horrible at it. I am a little too tall and not anywhere near as graceful or coordinated as a ballet dancer should be. I pretty much m as far from a ballerina as you can get. So i can't do ballet (and am a wee bit bitter towards anyone who can do ballet) So I get my ballet fix by painting them instead.
