Painting is the Cure

I've been in a funk lately. I'm not really sure why. I have a feeling it has to do with me feeling like I'm being pulled in a million different directions in both school and personal life with a cold/flu on top of it. But nothing (next to God) cures my ailments quite like painting does.

I can't really explain the feeling I get when I paint. Its as if I'm instantly in my own world and everything else just goes away. I'm sure it drives Tohny nuts because he's always trying to talk to me and I keep saying "What?" "Huh?" "Are you talking to me?"

This painting is almost finished. My goal is to get this painting and another of mine done by the end of tonight. We'll see how that goes... !






The small painting hanging from the top is the concept painting I did last semester. The small piece of paper taped to the side is the original sketch.
