More morbid dreams

This happened somewhere between Saturday night and Sunday morning. I was of course in a different bed and it all felt strange. Plus it was raining.

In the dream I was in Japan, on a train with a normal load of people. The train stopped at the last stop and everyone got off. Everyone got off and disappeared, save for myself, someone who looked like Ken Watanabe, and another young Japanese woman. It was dusk, so everything was dark and shadowy. But then I realized that there were no street and no alleys in this town center, just wall-to-wall buildings. It felt like we were in a box. And every single square foot of the building faces were covered in black paper. No doors, no windows. The Japanese woman ran around, looking for a way out.. Until she found a space the size of a small door that was not covered in black paper. She started to scream. The man and I ran towards the woman, who was pounding at the non-black space, begging to be let in. Something was coming and it was getting darker and darker. Pretty soon we were all pounding at the "door" and screaming.

I woke up, then fell back asleep to have another dream. Both felt very real. The next one was in my uncle's house, where I was on the second floor in my current state of living out of a suitcase and not having anywhere to call my own. Then I discovered that there was a hidden third floor loft, secluded from everything. There was a bed, closet, chest of drawers, room to put things, everything I could want. I wondered why I had never heard about this before. I truly wanted to live there, in my own space.


current mood: okay

Blah-Blah Land

Below is the latest illustration for my "LA-LA Land" column in the upcoming issue of LA Weekly. But first...sketches:


The first idea was chosen again...it's odd that it always seems to work that way. Anyway, just in case anyone was wondering, the second idea was a commuter tangled up in a map of bus lines, the third is a group of actors in costume waiting for the bus to Hollywood, and the last is a pigeon in a mandala of an international selection of food.


This is the final sketch for the chosen idea: a bunch of Angelenos who are slaves to technology. Everybody's constantly in contact with someone but, you know...not. Simple.

And here's the final piece (cropped):



"Contact"
Ink and acrylic on paper
13" x 9"
[ADs: Jason Jones and Darrick Rainey]

I'm pretty happy with how this turned out. It was nice to really limit my color palette this time around. This illustration should be appearing in the issue coming out Thursday, so pick one up if you can!

hey howdy hey.

i'm considering bringing back my paid account just for the simple fact that i want more user picture options. haha. but then that would mean actually having to update it.

so. news? none, really .. so an update about what's going on here in good ol arizona:

am SERIOUSLY hating living with my sister. she's so immature, and that's saying a lot for ME, a hypocrite, disgusting, annoying .. shall i go on? it seriously takes all i've got in me to not punch her in the neck for being such an obnoxious jerk. things are going well at work though, i love it there. everyone is SO nice and it's a bit of an ego boost too haha. not to toot my own horn or anything, but it never hurts to hear a compliment or 4 a day. ;) i'm actually starting a second job on the 23rd. sales. JOY. i applied at this place when i first moved out here and they've been calling me ever since .. i figure work there a while and save monies until i can do what i REALLY want to do. i'd be making almost 2 grand a month, if not more. so, eh. i can do a lot of things i need to get done with that kind of moolah. let's see .. attempted to make some friends, which didn't really work as i didn't really put much of an effort into it. i seriously half assed it. shrug. i don't really need/want friends out here anyway as i don't need a reason to have any ties whatsoever to this state. same goes for dudes too. many failed attempts, but i'm just not interested. sorries.

well, actually. that's kind of a half lie. i AM interested in someone, just no one on this coast. i know, typical me, right? ugh. whatevz. funny story, as i met him RIGHT before i moved to AZ. he toured/played a show with my friend kevin and i just happened upon said show and kinda started crushing on him right then and there. ok, i know, i KNOW. band guy. east coast. that ALONE was grounds enough to terminate the whole thing, but he's soooo YES and very little no, so i'm ok with riding this one out, haha.

ok. so before i get all mushy, which is a no-no, let's talk about MUSIC. i started guitar lessons again, but the dude turned out to be SUPER creep, so i don't think i'll be going back to him any time soon. maybe 3rd times the charm? haha. i just won't wait so many years in between. speaking of lessons, i'm considering doing ballet again. it'd beat going to a gym or a yoga den, so who knows?? i'd be SUPER down for that.

alright, i think this is enough of an update for now. some things to look forward to in the coming month(s):

finishing my pan tattoo
VEGAS for brandons birthday in jan.
new(er?) car
a mini vaycay?



PS.
WHEN THE FUCK DID MIKE NADER (hahahaha, i can NEVER say his name without thinking of you [info]fairlyhappy) LEAVE MELEE?? ANYONE? ANYONE? BUELLER?


current mood: bitchy
current music: owl city.
