Yes, spring is here. Little cricket bugs are chirping and so are the birds. The heat is wandering about in lazy circles like a great golden tabby already. Winds have become fickle; lying low one moment, scattering leaves with a wicked humor the next. All about the hills fat heads of wheat nod, sweet and bitter, next to wild chicory and seeded grass heads ready to burst free. The canvas of the sky is deepening into a layered blue that warns cloud gazers that the heady spell of spring comes with a price tag, because nothing is free. And the fanged wind of cold, barren days is already clawing its way back north. The land feels the warming and the people who know the land felt it too. Already the air is filling and deepening into a rich, earthy smell of damp soil and new life. Some nights are dry and star dappled, others wet and stormy. The other night I walked down into the center of our field, the cropped grass brittle and soft, and I lay down on my back and stared at the eternal sky. I lay there and breathed in the sweat and bitter wheat and let myself float in the feeling of eternal oblivion that hits me at this time of year when the world is bright and dark with an exotic strangeness and an even stranger familiarity.

Where does time go? Haven't uploaded anything in ages...I will soon. I've been busy, really busy, with everything life manages to jam into the cracks of my existance. Things are just chaotic lately. I draw better when it's raining, like it is now (again!), but then I don't feel like scanning it. Bah. I think I have about twelve pictures to post. I better get going...

Bleh. January is my least favorite month. Cold, rainy, loads of homework, and I'm one of those people who get pains when heavy percipitaion is comming. Oh well, I suppose I ought to get updating my gallery. Even though I just feel like dropping to the floor in a soggy heap...

Well, my new scanner seems to be behaving itself thus far. I uploaded a few images. Most of the are from summer 2007 because all of my reacent ones are lurking in the unfinished pile; I'm always starting something new. Now I'll try to finish some and post them, when I get done with all of the homework loaded on me for Thanksgiving weekend. I hope my pictures don't look too unpolished compared to everyone else's. I'd appreciate any comments.

Edit: I will be poasting the rest of my work before the end of Thanksgiving break. And I will also try to finish the backgrounds of some newer pieces so everyone can see what my current level of artistic ability is.

Finaly! Well, my scanner broke down so I couldn't upload any of my drawings, but I did enter some of my writing. The scanner is being fixed but it will be a while before it's ready. Anyway, please do read my literature and feel free to comment. I will try to insert somemore pieces before the end of the month!
