Deviantart!

Well, I've had a Deviantart account for about two years now; however, it has been exceedingly neglected, due to the fact that I do not possess a large amount of artistic talent (aka: I can't draw/paint for shit).

On the other hand, I know how to write up a coherent sentence and I know the basics of Photoshop Elements. So, I therefore think to myself: "Hey, why not visit that good old Deviantart account I had once upon a time, in a land far far away?"
So I subsequently visited this account and posted a couple of scraps which I personally thought were marginally better than some of the other crap I see over Deviantart. Some of my posted works include this (attempted) coloured image of Audrey Hepburn:


...
Don't laugh, fool! You totes wish that you had my colourising skills!
Anyway, other lame works include my crappy creative writing story for English (which I shockingly did well in) and some colour splashes.
But, yeah... this is all part of my attempt to become a cool deviantart kid. =DDD

Here's me link:

The beauty of absence;

I know I've been exceedingly negligent when it comes to blogging (bite me)... However, I have been quite effective in finding new fascinations to ease my stress regarding school and all the woes, traumas and heartbreaks it miserably bestows upon me. Therefore, this subsequently makes this very special post dedicated to all my (current) favourite things. *skips around, whistling numbers from The Sound of Music*

o.o" Anyway... here they are:


The Romanov Children



Ariel from The Little Mermaid

Brigitte Bardot



Unicorns (and this image)

Betty Grable



and others...
...which aren't as worthy as these gems.
However, as much as I love these, I really can't be bothered expressing my fondness towards each in full detail... so therefore I'll just try to sum them up one by one in a single sentence (or lack thereof):
Romanov kiddies: They're tragic, innocent and mysterious.
Ariel: She's a redhead, a mermaid and a singer.
WWII: A disastrous yet riveting period of history.
Brigitte Bardot: She's a babe and an animal rights activist.
Unicorns: They're lovely (especially in that photo *nosebleed*)
Betty Grable: She's a babe and THE WWII pinup.

Anyway, chances are that I'll be writing up individual posts on each of these figures/topics (if I'm bothered)...
Well, there isn't much left to say, so I'm going to go improve upon my French accent (maybe then I'll look at least a bit like Brigitte Bardot).

Over and out,
