* WEEK3 *

No, as you can see no fancy banner-ish thing and if you scroll down you will notice there is no collage of pictures from every angle of my drawing. Sorry. 

Today I've had my first day of internship and let's just say it's energy consuming. So I'm not really feeling it to now take my camera, be arty and take pictures of my work, edit them and make a nice collage out of them. ButI did want to post my drawing from past week, because I want this blog to be another way for myself to kind of keep track of what I'm doing. 

So now that's explained, let's get to this week.

*WEEK3*

To make it even worse, I've been sick for 3 days last week, so my drawing time was litterally pushed towards the last possible moment: sunday night after work. Nontheless, this is the most time I've spent on a drawing yet.

I've had the idea of what I wanted to do this week for a few days. It was an image I saw on Pinterest. I knew immediately knew I wanted to do something with it and then I got the idea that this would be a great oppertunity to get familliar with my pencils. So I've made some patterns with different shaded pencils to kind of see what they do, how they feel and how dark they draw. 

To remember afterwards, I've put the pencil kind in every line. 

It's not perfect, far from. It's definately not what I had in mind when I started, but I do think it was a good practice for myself. This gave me a little more feeling with the pencils, which is kind of what you need with drawing as well, I think. 

So I'll just leave you with this picture of my drawing, and hopefully next time I will be able to do a proper blog post.

Have a nice life,

P.s. Sorry, also no link to the explanation of what the hell is happening in this post. I'm on my iPad, so it's really difficult to get to those things. 

If you do want to know, you can find a blogpost called "Don't Break the Chain *2014*" on my blog. 

I hope this will be back to normal next time.

Back in peace.

I'll confess it right away. I already failed.

This post was supposed to be my first DBTC post, but I didn't make my first exercise yet, so I can't show you anything yet. I hate this, but school comes first.

Now, I finally finished this period. Finally, there is peace in my head. 

The first 5 days of this year were kind of packed with school.

I went to antwerp for 3 days, where I also did schoolwork when we were at the hotel and the other remaining days were fully packed with school. Finishing off every assignment. So I didn't get to my project. 

But I'll get back. 

Next week you'll see 2 exercises I've made. Now I have no more homework to do, so I can work at my own project.

So, I would say, look forward to next week. Then will be the start of my Don't Break the Chain. With 2 weeks in one. 

This should be good.

Have a nice life,

Xoxo

Deadline City. 2.0

And here we are again. The end of a term.

No calm, peaceful New-Year for me. No, on the first of January 2014 I'm sitting in my room making homework. Frantically trying to get everything done before next week. Next week is our deadline and I'm not even close to ready for that.

This vacation has been very different to what I'm used to. It's been everything but relaxing. At the moments I didn't have things I had to go to (the funs of christmas), I was working. And if I wasn't working I was trying to squeeze homework time into every possible moment. Not something I love to do. 

So after a lot of planning, working and a mini mental breakdown, I think I might actually get it done. Maybe. Let me tell you, there is a lot to be done. A lot. But I believe that with some ~very~ loud music in the background I should be able to make it trough these last days. 

But I'm not only worried to not get it done for school and the grades I'll get. I'm also worried I won't be able to get to my first Don't Break The Chain (DBTC) week. Yes this worries me. I don't want my first week of my own little project to go wrong right away. I want to start my chain. 

So let's just hope I'll get it done. I'm sure I will. Because I have to.

Have a nice life,

Xoxo
