Finding myself.

This blog was meant to keep records of the art works I do in school and on my spare time. These past six months have been really tough on so many levels. In the process of all the shit falling from sky and being cursed by the gods, I've realized that I don't see myself in Art as a career. Don't get me wrong, I love everything and anything ART and I will keep drawing and maybe do things on the side, but that's about it. To draw, to paint, to illustrate is very personal to me. Only when I'm inspired am I able to work on something and be committed. This is the main reason why I don't see myself in it as a career. I can't have a boss give me a time limit to work on my art, whether it's a logo or a design of something. Friends asking me to design something is different. I'm always inspired to draw and design for family. It's disappointing, but that's the truth.

Here's the kicker, I've realized that I want to be a photojournalist. I love the art in taking photos, to be able to tell a story through an image, to impact and reflect the lives of others and to educate people about the things that are going on in this world. Enough said, I've started a new blog in effect of this new goal of mine.

This new blog is going to be more personal. You'll be able to take a peak in what's happening in my life. A photo-journal of some sort.

Anyways, this blog will still be maintained. I will still be posting works, but it will be on the occasions when I feel like it, when I'm not lazy and most importantly, when I'm INSPIRED.
 
Look 'ma, I found myself.
