it's a cosmic fantasy.

so here is the work of a dark angel, mysterious and thoughtful. she is a sixteen year old young woman from the large continent australia. i love how she creates such beautiful muses and photos that make you wonder what the characters in her pieces are thinking.

you can view her profile on deviantart with this link:

seriously, i have become fixed upon deviantart photographers. there are so many artists i have fallen for.

candy clouds and sunny wishes.

winter has been so long this year and it is still only halfway through.

here in utah we can get really bad winter weather, at least in the north where i live.

i usually love the cold, but i am desperately wanting the sun to shine through the thick black clouds and drown me in it.

i want to go to the local amusement park that is just twenty to thirty minutes from where i am sitting now.

i want to go on a rollarcoaster, go swimming, and eat cotton candy which i don't like that much anyways but that's how much i am longing for summer.

i want a summer love, kisses in the warm rain, sneaking off to places one shouldn't wander late at night, fireworks, sunburns, laughter, shorts and tanktops, cold smoothies and icecream, the ocean, huge white clouds under a bright blue sky, dinner on the patio, the drive-in, fairs, local band concerts, visiting cemetaries late at night, scary movie watching, and prank pulling.

i want the warmth to engulf my body and trap me in it.

i want summer to come.

the photography is a simply beautiful thing to look at from this 16 year old girl. please check her out.

i have to go to school now so peace out and continue to daydream!

eye candy for the girl.. or man. :)

now i am not the kind of girl who bases her crushes on a man's looks, but that certainly does not mean i can't appreciate a good looking model when i see one.

when i was just typing in random stuff on google images, i ran across this website where i found most of these male gods.

how freaking hard they must have to work out everyday to look like that, not to mention diets and touch ups. but none-the-less, they are quite a site to gaze upon.

wouldn't you agree?

.

here is the website i found most of them on:

enjoy. ;)

my new muse and lover.

i have done it.

i have fallen in love with a magazine. not just any magazine, but a magazine called frankie.

i discovered this creation at a barnes and noble near where i live. i have become entirely fixed upon it.

.

the magazine's website describes itself with these words:

"frankie magazine is a national bi-monthly based in Australia, aimed at women (and men) looking for a magazine that’s as smart, funny, sarcastic, friendly, cute, rude, arty, curious and caring as they are. "

.

they focus on fashion, art, music, crafts, and life. most magazines interview celebrities and let you know about the latest clothing from marc jacobs and prada. but frankie demands the presence of newcomers from mainly australia and abroad whether they are artists, musicians, or other hobbies not found elsewhere. they let you know not what the "in" things are, but what is different and unique and what will make you stand out.

i completely lust upon the art and street fashion they show and admire their completely remarkable way of putting things.

check them out on their website:

http://www.frankie.com.au/

or buy the magazine at your local barnes and noble.

i scream for you.

i love this artist/ photographer. her name is lara and i adore looking at her work. it has such emotion and great angles. everyone needs to look at her page on deviantart.com :

natural warrior.

this mystical group of photos are by the talented julia davis. she has a beautiful gallery on deviantart.com . i found her work this morning and i adore it all. she has a very good sense of color and what would look good. she is very creative and i feel so happy looking through all her photos.

you know, deviantart has so many talented artists on it, i just get so jealous. :)

i wish i was good enough to make my own on there and show my art. but if you placed my art next to all the amazing and beautiful artists that are on there, i would probably get laughed at. :)

ah well, i can speak my mind on here so i am ok.

oh and by the way, here is the exact link to julia's website on deviantart. please check it out. it won't be a let down!

i feel like i could jump and fly.

i am so proud of myself.

in my ap art class i went to go show my teacher my new art and journal pages that i had been working on over xmas break. she told me that i was such an inspiration and she wanted to make copies of everything to show art classes in the years to come.

not only that, but she gave me a lot of extra credit. after she had entered in the scores, she told me that my grade was the highest anyone has ever scored in any of her art classes she has ever taught. she has been teaching for a long time.

i am so happy! by the way, my grade was 124.6 percent. i could not be happier...

actually, if i had that certain someone i love holding me right now, it would be perfect. :)

i can conquer.

school starts again today after a long 16 day break! now i know that a lot of people got longer than that (my friend sam got til the beginning of december til the 25th of january!) but 16 days is too long for me to be away from the world and friends. that whole two and a half weeks i only saw one friend. i was so depressed. all i had to do was draw draw draw and go onto facebook.

sigh.

but now that school starts up again today in about oh, an hour and a half, i am much more happy and feel more alive. i can't wait to see my friends again and see how they are doing.

i have done so much art over the past couple of weeks during the break. i really hope my ap art teacher likes all of it. i have been trying some new experiments with colors and pictures. it has been a lot of fun. even if all of the pieces i have done recently aren't liked by my teacher and other students, i am still proud of myself for going outside my box. as jennifer anniston once said:

"everything we want in the world is just outside our comfort zones."

how true is that? when we stay in the safe grounded area we think nothing can hurt us. but then we realize that we can't have anything we truely desire because we are afraid of change.

i am so glad that i overcame that problem. i feel like i have so much to offer the world, i just have to be brave enough to show it and let it out and free.

three evils.

these pieces of art i did recently were inspired by the "fight against aids" campaign starring various celebrities. i chose to draw avril lavigne because her photos were amazing and beautiful. my scanner really isn't good and so you can't see the full effect of them all. but you get the jist of it. i fully support this campaign and believe they can make a difference in fighting against aids. already they have made over a few million dollars.

it's like i'm floating in the ocean.

i am so excited for this new year. i feel fully alive and motivated. i can't wait for it to get going. i feel weightless and beautiful like nothing can stop me. and nothing will. i am too happy about where i am that i know that trying to bring me down will only make me stronger. being in love only helps the situation too. ;)

let it flow

these beautiful pieces of art are done by chris ortega. i found all of his work on epilogue.com but i am sure you can find them on other websites too. i love the colors and passion he uses. i also like how each picture has a story behind it or a point.
