make something day ten


Today I made: a painting for my mother. It's kind of a late christmas present, but more just an idea that I wanted to create for her. I'm not overly excited about the finished product, but decided to call it finished before messing it up any more than I already did. But!, there is a story behind it. It's called Ave Maria, and is from a scene in Fantasia where a bunch of robed beings are seen walking down a path carrying torches and singing the chorus to Ave Maria. While watching Fantasia together, she went on about how much she loved this scene and how it was the one of the songs played during her mothers funeral. Though sad, I know that this song holds importance in her heart, so I took my memory of the visual scene and recreated it. It didn't exactly come out as good as I intended it too, mostly because of my few mess ups that I had to cover up, but the important part is that she likes it!

green tea for me

So much of my life consists of being a homebody, wandering around outside, drinking iced, unsweetened, delicious tea and crafting. I'm finally getting back into using my camera more, having a good phone camera has been so convenient that my other cameras have been missing out on some good shots. I have two awesome digital cameras thanks to my father, and the one that I've been using more and more recently is his old Canon Rebel XSi. I also have some film cameras that my dad has passed down to me including an old Nikon, a Hasselblad and a Polaroid camera that I would really love a chance to use. I've never really used many cameras so I'll need some time to learn the basics first, but nothing needs to be perfect so I think I'll like my random, flawed shots all the same. Film, please?
Well, I've really been enjoying sitting here writing when there's nothing else on my list of things to do about just as much as I enjoy taking little pictures about my life. So, here are some random pictures to go along with my random ramblings.
