Balloon Dreams pt. 1

As a disclaimer, I'm not sure if anyone knows that I'm an artist.

Well, I am.

So here's my latest project!

I'm also mildly obsessed with hedgehogs and balloons.. but that's not really the point here.

Au revoir,

Today was a Saturday that was altogether confusing. We woke up and cleaned the entire apartment, and then decided that we needed to find people to do things with. And no one wanted to do anything.  Which was very much bothersome. So instead of going out and having a jolly good time, we just decided to homebodies instead. This included watching multiple episodes of community, going for a walk, and me having a ridiculous art moment where I epiphanied myself into working on something for once.  I sometimes get so caught up in school, and work, and I forgot why I really exist. Which is to create. That's my passion. The form of art is less important; the creation is the most important thing. So I put music on and suddenly it came to me what to do. I'm a sentimental girl. As in, don't mess with the tiny moments. I will kill for those. So I created. And I'm actually really happy with the finished project...

Be brave, and channel what you're feeling, even if it's scary, and create something beautiful,

Sketched

Whenever I have an event, be it the first day of school, or a wedding reception, I imagine exactly what I'll be wearing for that occasion. And generally, these ideas are almost impossible to explain to other people. Although with Nancy, I can almost always describe it perfectly.

But, the majority of the population does not speak my confusing language. So I draw pictures of what I imagine myself wearing. Granted, the women wearing the clothes are willowy and skinny, nothing at all like my actual true-to-life body. But it's what I see in my mind's eye. 

This particular picture is what I envision myself wearing on New Years Eve when I have a small, classy party with Nancy and various other friends. I want to find a black vintage dress to wear with my sparkly silver tights, black bow-toed shoes, and a glittery pink party hat that I'll be making shortly.

I love sketching my plans out :)

Love, Sarai

Happy Painters

Today we painted. 

 And it was good.

 Until I got distracted by myself. 

And then it was good again.

Take pictures of your art. Then it's seen in a different way than even you intended.
