5 paintings to go...?

i spent my life wondering...

so this was a little doodle...



and then this was supposed to be a better attempt at a full size painting...
I'm having serious color issues. I don't even know where to start.
maybe I'll just go black and white for a while... i don't know.

"Never mind

I'll find someone like you

I wish nothing but the best for you too

Don't forget me I beg

I remember you said

'Sometimes it lasts in love

But sometimes it hurts instead.'" - Adele

Sometimes we light Christmas trees on fire...

do you remember when 21 years was old?

true and everlasting didn't last that long.

Oh, I know it goes on, it gets old...

Coming to the sad realization that time is going to be in short supply this semester. I spent my weekend taking an online test, and doing these two paintings...my life is sad.

Here we go:

"Something is Missing" Detail

I like the little fun textures... we'll see how this holds up with the profs.

"If we were honest and both wrote a sonnet together

a sandwich with everything on it,

at least we would know that the sparks didn't glow

but we owe it to ourselves to try,

so we aim and ignite!"

ps.

I went to california last weekend.

Too much thinking, too little painting...

System of Separation

14X11in

Watercolor

I was recently told that my stuff looks like wall paper...

so I'm going to try and turn these out pretty fast in order to figure out what it is i'm trying to do...

somehow, i don't think that looking like wall paper is it.
