sunday sunday sunday. so theres one last day until the start of this hatchy showy internyshipy. you guys get double does of artwork today. the painting was one of the first large paintings i did while in school. it traded that plus another to my mom for a bed. a very good trade imo. the print is a etching/drypoint/aquatint reproduction of a max ernst painting. it's interesting, but the more i look at the painting, the more and more it feels like it was formulated. yeah, it looks different, but i was really into cubism when i started and cubism can be easily manipulated into a certain formula. its dull and not authentic. i remember when i was talking to my teaching towards the end of the term, when i did the painting, and he told me that that painting would not look as good in the years to come. he was right. maybe it needs a varnish on it to give it some mmph.

today was an espresso morning. so good.
