bluejeans07: (Doctor Who- (mad) Genius at Work)
I don't want to go back to work yet so I'm going to procrastinate a bit XD
Comment to this post and I will give you 5 subjects/things I associate you with. Then post this in your LJ and elaborate on the subjects given!

Subjects selected by [livejournal.com profile] thebluelady

1. Painting: Hmm, well... painting's always something I want to improve on so my biggest projects for myself tend to be paintings. I really enjoy it and it's very relaxing yet I feel productive at the same time! Right now, I'm kind of exploring styles for myself, I really love Mary Blair and Eyvind Earle but I'm also inspired by Alfons Mucha and John Singer Sargeant. I'm trying to marry my loves together and I've been thinking of different ways of exploring that. Honestly, I feel I'm better at drawing than painting but that's why I want to improve.

2. Clothing/ Jewelry Design: I've only now become a girly girl XD I like clothes and jewelry after just being ambivalent to them for years! To find ways to really express myself through my clothes, I've been making my own. But it's also a way of trying to save money and use up stuff in my bins. Now I've become more confident in my skills to feel like I can give things I make to my friends. :D

3. Optimistic: Haha, well I try to be a positive person mostly because I know how fortunate I am and how things could have been so different. Life is short and it goes by fast so I'm trying to live without regrets and enjoy it as much as possible. :)

4. Dr. Who: When a lot of my friends started watching Doctor Who, they kept trying to get me to watch it but because I'm usually really busy, I kept pushing it off. Then I happened to find a clip of Torchwood of Jack snogging the original Captain Jack and I was like, OMG GAY SLASH I MUST HAVES NOW. Now that I've seen all that I have seen, I'm in love! The show is kind of my wish for myself: travel around, learn new things, meet new people and make great things happen. :D And it'd be awesome if it could happen with a blue box, a tin dog and a hot brainy man by my side. XD

5. Art Shows: What people don't seem to know is that I have participated in art shows for many years. I participated in my first community art show at Fiesta La Ballona when I was in elementary school and kept going. I've shown work at LACMA, MOCA, and UCLA Fowler Museum in high school, and I've shown art at the first ever One Ring Celebration alongside many fabulous artists from WETA and comic book artist Colleen Doran. I'm getting back into it now in a more professional way, partly because I could use the money but also because it's really fun and I do miss it. :)
