"Gravity don't mean too much to me I'm who I've got to be These pigs are after me, after you" My Chemical Romance

Well heres some art! woot! this was inspired by My Chemical Romance's new song Bullet Proof Heart.

Inspired by Gerard, Mikey, Frank, and Ray's enthusiasm and these lines:

Run away like it was yesterday
And we could run away
If we could run away,
Run away from here

I gotta bulletproof heart
You gotta hollow point smile
We had our run away scarves,
Got a photograph dream on the getaway mile.

Let's blow a hole in this town
And do our talking with the laser beam.
Coming out of this place
In a bullet's embrace
Then we'll do it again.

Jill Thompson (creater of Scary Godmother) Illistrated some chapters in a comic seris called Sandman. in that seris there is a charicter who is in all ways Death. that is her name and that is her role. well i was sketching yesterday and ended up with a Death look a like (kinda) so here she is.

I'm proud of the boots and the shadowing on her clothes.

I was at dinner with Taylor and his Parents and two of their friends when Taylor pointed out that the table cloth was paper. well, this of course made me endlessly exited! so, of course, Taylor and I drew for a while. I drew for most of the meal (excluding the eating part) then i discovered gel pens in my bag. so here is Scary Godmother MotleyMince and a Flower!

Welcome to the Fright Side!

Jill Thompson wrote a scary godmother book called "Scary Godmother and the Mystery Date". this book always made me want Bug-A-Boo to be the guy. its probably because of beauy and the beast that i always want the perdy lady to end up with the harry monster.  Also Bug-A-Boo seemed to like her. he was one of the many guys flocking to her house in the book... it would be so sweet...

“FEAR is an acronym in the English language for "False Evidence Appearing Real"” Neale Donald Walsch

When i was little  i fell in love whith a seris of books called Scary Godmother. They are about a little girl named Hannah who, insted of a fairy godmother who comes when your sad, a Scay Godmother who comes to show her that Halloween isn't so scary. All the books after the first are hannah's adventures on the Frightside with Scary Godmother.

This drawing is of Scary Godmother, her friend Bug-A-Boo, and her cat Boozle. i'm gonna be Scary for halloween. it shall be fantastic!

"To dance is to be out of yourself. Larger, more beautiful, more powerful." ~Agnes De Mille

"Please send me your last pair of shoes, worn out with dancing as you mentioned in your letter, so that I might have something to press against my heart."  ~Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Frankly i have tried to type my feelings and thoughts about dance several times now and i can't manage it. I found a song though that pretty much expresses what i feel. its called One Step Closer and is from the broadway musical The Little Mermaid.

It comes when Ariel is at the castle and trying to talk to Eric but can't. Eric sings this song.
One Step Closer (youtube) sorry for the quality.

and this is a very quick very sloppy watercolor  inspired by this song.

here are the lyrics if you are interested

"If we don't change, we don't grow. If we don't grow, we aren't really living." -Gail Sheehy

I've been listening to a lot of Traveling songs lately. Ah, the call of the Airport! Really I'm starting to get tired of Colorado. I normally go on at least one trip a summer because of ARTistic Pursuits Inc. (my parents Art curriculum company). I work for them and they normally need me to help work a conference but this year I wasn't needed. Now I'm itching to go somewhere. So from this need to go somewhere and habit of listening to traveling music (most of which is written/sung by Michael Nesmith) I have created a girl with a guitar in an airport.

I'm rather proud of the guitar in this picture, though its simple. Its the first time I've drawn an instrument (besides a drum set) since 7th grade...actually more like 6th.

"For who could ever learn to love a Beast?"

"I can! I can!"-Ariel and Laurel inunison

My sister and i always wondered why the Prince that Beast turns into is always uglyer then the Beast he was before. this happened not only in the Disney one but the ballet, the Fairytale Theatre, and silent versions. i decided to make a version of beauty and the beast that remadyed that. in my version Belle turns into a beast instead of beast becomeing a man.
