(no subject)
Nov. 28th, 2006 10:48 pmI would dearly like to be un-tired and stay up half the night getting stuff done. Every time I start to think about how much I have to do in (less than) two weeks, I start to freak out a little bit. And then I get a headache and want to go straight to bed, which means my evenings are generally extreemly unproductive. My advice to myself (and apparently to everyone else who wanted my advice on anything today) is to simply not think about it. I tend to overthink things anyway, and I believe my peace of mind (and probably my art) could be greatly improved by not thinking so hard.
And now to counteract my anti-thinking stance, I must needs make a list of everything I have to do in (less than) two weeks:
~Etch and print aquatint
~Make and print two woodcuts
~Print an edition
~Make any other print of my choice (and then actually print the thing)
~Make Death Doll. So far it isn't beyond the sketching stage...yeah...I should start molding it tonight probably
~Make mixed media metals project. This is the Star Wars inspired headdress, and I starting sawing my metal tomorrow morning.
~Write Play response for Autumn in the Valley
~Write Book Review
~Write short paper on the reliquary project in metals
~Memorize and stage my scene
~Make mask for make-up
I think I should turn off my brain, make some tea, and get cracking. I just need to convince myself that I really don't want to sleep...that bed isn't really as comfy as it looks.
I'm lousy at lying to myself.
