  Sun warming my skin / Almost time for more lotion / Ooh! Bikini babes! Muscles feel so tired / The day is almost over / Karate was great! I am going to try and persist with my Haiku. Read a bit write a bit. Read a bit write a bit. I know they aren’t much but I just like the idea of expressing the moment. Isn’t that what we are all doing on here? Well…..except for some of my Tshirt designs!. Robots are hardly ever in my moments of late. / Theres a point. How many haiku actually express the authors experienced moment? My karate one above is pretty much how I feel right now. The bikini one on the other hand is how I wish my experience was right now. Is that wrong? No. I can pretty much fantasize about anything I want – my subconscious won’t no the difference. (hehehee sucker!) Here’s your homework: Go and comment on everyone of my t’shirt and card designs. I mean good hearty comments not that “ooh cute bot there” crap that keeps churning out. I want to here words like wicked! and “I’d buy that”. Go on off you go.

• School is cool...BUT HOMEWORK SUCKS.

  Okay, so we all know that school is cool, if you don’t, then go and watch Billy Maddison NOW. Also, we all know that if you don’t like math then your a quadratic, and that gramer iz awsum, BUT HOMEWORK SUCKS! / Teachers are fine, but when they say ‘Her’s an assignment, it’s only gotta be 1500 words, and i’m giving you 2 days’ apparently they are oblivious that we actually have other teachers that give us homework! Shocking teachers, I know, we’re having an affair with other teachers. So I average about 1 peice of homework a day, and I normally have to study for a test/SAC of one of those God foresaken exams! Luckily for us, however, we get breaks. A whole 2 days… yay. Don’t get me wrong, it’s better than nothing, but considering that I have got to cram EVERY SUNDAY for something, that kind of sucks a day away. I think they have forgotten that we all don’t like writing argumentative essays on the conflict in the middle east, and how this relates to logarithms. In conclusion, WTF.

  I wonder what will happen if I fail english this year? I probably would have to try again next year. I really don’t want to. English sucks, so does geography. This is the reason I chose to continue with these subject this year. I don’t think it matters if I pass Geography or not, and I don’t think that I will pass either of them. This is completely my fault, I have been really lazy all year, as a matter of fact, all my life, I have avoided doing homework. I havn’t felt like doing anything lately, I have been to tired to do the one thing that I enjoy most, drawing. The only thing that I have done the passed few weeks is either write in this blog, submit a few things play my DS. I’m becoming obsessed with Pokemon Mystery Dungeon at the moment. I have felt a huge need to complete the game asap. I’ve also been watching alot of TV. I have been sleeping more than usual and I haven’t been eating properly. (Only just resently I’ve felt like eating.) Maybe it is stress from school. People think that I don’t belive in myself. That I don’t think I’m capable of doing good in anything. That is partly right. All my life I have had to re-do things because I have’nt do it right. I can’t understand information properly. For some reson or the other, and whenever I do ask for help, I still don’t understand. So I am frequently asking for help over and over again until I give up, or I eventually understand (which is very unlikely) / Its like my brain works differently than everyone else. / And the one person I normally do understand starts to talk gibberish as soon as I ask for help. / Mum thinks she understands and tries to understand, but is explaining something completely different than the teachers. And as soon as I protest, we end up fighting, so now I don’t even bother. / My step dad is really smart, but if you ask one simple question, it takes him like half an hour to give you an answer, he just goes on and on… He needs to just get straight to the point! / When I ask my dad for help, he understands just as much as me. I think I get my understanding side from my dad. (He droped out of school.) That makes me feel so much better. =p / Mabe I should try and ask the dog, I probably would get better answers from her! / Well anyway I think I’ve carried on too much, let out my steam. Better get back to work! Toodles =]

• Making choices in self portraiture

  This is my homework for the course I am currently doing at Brunswick Street Gallery. We have to take a self portrait which does not show our face but which does show something of ourselves. This may not be the one I submit, but it has been an interesting exercize and I thought I would share. I often post work here without much of an explanation into the choices I make. I thought it might be nice to make it available so you can see that I do actually put a bit of thought into my work, even if it is not obvious at first glance. The Easels: / Faded and old. They represent myself as an artist. How of late I am taking fewer and fewer photos and am out of practice. They are scattered at random, which is a lot like my very hectic and chaotic life. Yet they all match, which shows my underlying need to have organisation, even if it is organised chaos. You may notice the empty frame. For me this represents not only my occupation, but it’s emptiness means it acts as a window. A way to see into me. It is a comment on the whole image as well as an element within it. The Doll: / This is a childhood doll and has my old name written on it (from before I became Jo O’Brien). So it connects to my past and reminds me of a time passed. She is naked, which reflects how I feel as an artist, always confessing through my art. She is torn at both arms from being pulled in a tug-of-war game. Much like how I feel when I have more things requiring my time than I have time for. On a more human level. She represents my desire to one day have children, my “femaleness”, my nurturing side. The Costume: / It was scavenged from an op shop. Something I absolutely adore doing. And it fits like a second skin, showing my comfort in front of the camera. It’s close colour match to my skin implies nudity which highlights a more general level of comfort with my body, and ability to play a role within my own skin. It’s second hand nature reminds me that a ‘creative artist life’ was never my first choice. In fact, I studied Biology, Physics, Chemistry and Maths Methods in VCE and always had an aptitude for the sciences. Art was an accident. The Location: / At home in the back yard. Here I feel most relaxed and comfortable. It has been the location of numerous photo shoots and self portraits, so much so that I would feel like I was abondoning this space to take self portraits elsewhere. It also represents for me, my ability to live off my creativity, as my best selling shot was taken here. More generally I enjoy the idea of fences, of what they hold in and out. And of how to break them down. This is a theme I like to play with in a lot of my work- the emotional and psychological barriers we put up around ourselves, often needlessly. Setting up the shot: / I wanted to appear within the forest of easels and yet comfortable which dictated my pose, leaning gently against the fence. This shows my acceptance of the situation and environment and willingness to participate within it. However I am still holding my doll and not interacting with any other part of the environment. This suggests I still cling to something from my childhood, and have insecurites about the art world and my credibility as an artist. Your thoughts?

  It all started on December 20th,2007. Larry Smith sat on the edge of his bed with his 2 best friends sitting on the floor.”Man,Larry i can`t wait for christmas.I think my mom and dad is getting me that XBOX 360 i`ve been bragging about all week.” One of the boys said to Larry. “Yeah, i think my moms gonna get me that Dirt Bike and Four Wheller i`ve been asking for.” Another boy said. ” What happened to you guys holiday spirit.Christmas is suppose to be about Santa Clause and the egg nog that you drink at parties.” Larry told them.”Come on Larry you know we stopped believing in santa clause a long time ago.” Travis said. “Yeah Larry you need to listen to Travis. He may not always be right but i agree with him on this one. All i look forward to on Christmas is the presents and spending time with my mom.It`s the only time of the year she can spends all day with me instead of just 10 lowsy minutes” Andy said.” You guys are probably right. But is that all you really look forward to on Christmas?” Larry asked”No.Not really i also like the parties i go to and seeing people i never met before.”Travis answered.Bright and early the next morning Larry got up made him some breakfast set at the family table and thought about what his friends said.Then a knock came on the door.Larrys big sister Jena rushed downstairs and pushed larry so she could get to the door first.”Who is it!!!!” Hollard Jena.”Travis and Andy can Larry come out?”They asked.Jena unlocked the door and said….... “It`s your dorkish friends”. As they walked in they looked at Larry in a unfamilair way.”What”. Larry said spitting his ceral everywhere.”Come on dude don`t tell me you forgot. It`s saturday morning for petes sake why are you still in your PJ`s we are suppose to be out shopping for gifts for our moms and dads. But in Andys case mom.”Said Travis.”Oh. Yeah right the shopping.Sorry you guys i can`t make it.”Larry said.”Why not you`ve been saying you would be free on today.You even made a promise that you would`nt bail out at the last minute.” Andy said.”Yeah i know but.Ummmmmmmmmmm.I…I.I have to help Jena get ready for her prom tonight.” Larry said taking a big spoonful of ceral in his mouth.”What. My prom is`nt until a month from now.Look you guys Larrys lying he does`nt have anything to do but sleep.He was up all night doing some homework.” Jena said.”But we didn`t have any homework!”Travis yelled.Jena ran upstairs as fast as she could.”Look Larry you are my best friend but if you keep continuing to lie like this.We won`t have a friendship!Now are you going or not?”Travis asked angerly.”Alright im going.Give me 5 minutes to change.”Said Larry.”Alright 5 minutes or else.”Andy said.”Don`t push it And”.Said Larry.As Larry ran upstairs Jena looked at him and started laughing.Larry wondered why she was laughing but he didn`t ask he just looked at her and ran in his room.After larry put on his stuff he ran outside to Andy and Travis.”Right on time too.”Travis said. As they left off the porch they ran into 2 old enemies.Alex Matason and Bug Brain.”Well,well,well.Look what the cat spit out.Alex Matason and Bug Brain.” Said Travis.”Aw Travis i think you better leave them alone they got a dog.”Said Larry.”Stop being such a wimp Lar they are not gonna do anything with those dogs.”Said Andy.”I think you need to listen to your boy for you get wiped on my by me and my homeboy.Oh and lil Sparky here to.” Said Bug Brain.”Like i said before you ain`t do nothing with that mutt or your homeboy.”Travis said to Bug Brain. “Didn`t we teach you last that you should mind who you talk to.”Said Andy. “What punk i`ll whip your tail.”Said Bug Brain.”Sick`em boy”.Then the boys started to run with the dog on there tail and the other 2 boys behind them.They hit the corner and lost Bug Brain,Alex,and the dog.”Man that was a close one when are you two gonna learn how to keep your big mouths shut you almost got us killed today. Didn`t you see how big that dog was.He could have eaten us alive.” Said Larry.”Stop your worries he was just trying to scare us.” Said Travis.”Well it worked thanks to you and Andy.By the way where is Andy.”Asked Larry. Then they heard a scream. It was Andy they had caught him and the dog was eating him up.”Help, help.Help me Travis,Larry help!”yelled Andy.”Leave him alone he didn`t do anything to you or that mingy mutt.”Said Travis.”You know you got alot of nerve talking to me and my boy like that.” Said Alex.”You aint gonna do nuttin punk about it”said Travis.”Yeah aight.Try me.”Said Alex.Alex threw the first punch and bam. Travis was out like a light.When he woke up he was in a wheelchair in the middle of a hospital.”Wha…what happened?”asked Travis.”Alex threw the first punch and you went down like that.”Larry said snapping his fingers.That can`t be possible he was just right here.”Said Travis.”Yeah hours ago.”Said Andy.”Andy buddy are you alright all i remember was that Alex and Bug Brain`s dog was eating you up and bitting you with his visus teeth.”Said Travis sadly.”Yeah im okay thanks to you and Larry.Larry was amazing after you and Bug Brain got into it and he knoced you out.Larry jumped in it and took on both of them.But he got knocked down.And had a slittyly sprained arm.But thats okay he just has to rest for the next 2 weeks or so.”Andy said.”Man what are we gonna tell our parents?”Asked Travis scared.”I don`t know about you but me and Andy already called our moms and dads explaining what had happened.”Said Larry.”What.Ya`ll just going to let me hang like that.Ya`ll suppose to be my boys we look after each other.”Travis told them.”I know,i know,i know.But this time we couldn`t bail you out you made your own desicion nobody asked you to help me.”Said Andy.”Hold up, hold up,hold up.

  At least not for a while. I won’t say never, just in case I decide in a year or so that I do want to do the bachelor of Arts, majoring in something lovely!! But for now I’m happy with just having work to contend with and juggling my art and RedBubble around it. / btw… I finished the Diploma of Mulitmedia and my parchment will arrive sometime in January!!! Yay!!! This week’s been really slack where the computer’s concerned… so sorry to those who have missed my gorgeous cow batting her eyelashes around the bubbles. After the 3 weeks before that of mad rushing around, working double shifts and trying to get tafe homework done, I didn’t even want to look at the computer. But I did check my emails then answer or forward one or two, then turned it off again. Today, I’m back to nearly normal ;D Yay!! No work until next week, hopefully mid week, so I can still have a few more selfish arty days (with a bit of housework inbetween I suppose). I defrosted the freezer today, so one job a day’s pretty good!! Tomorrow we’re putting up the Christmas tree. Its ok… the camera is charged and memory card is empty!! Ready to sneak up on any adorable kitty climbing and chomping on branches!!! Today, I also revamped my Cat and Bird into a Christmas card and wallart. I happen to think they’re pretty cute!! They make me smile, so when my art does that I’m happy to upload it here ;D / I’ve sketched another card, with insects this time! I’ve just got to redraw it to bring it to life. Something to do on Monday if I don’t get to it this weekend. I love this new hard life I’m going to lead… drawing and painting (traditional and digital) on 1 or 2 days a week and working on the days left over after time spent with Zac, friends and family. So that’s me for now… here’s some pics for you all to gaze at!! / Love at Christmas to colour in / Happy Christmas in white Oh!!! And one more thing… bragging this time!!! I sold a calendar!!! My first calendar sale!! woo hoo!! So Thank You to the mystery buyer. Its of a collection of photographs I took while backpacking in Europe ;D I wish you all a happy, wonderful and relaxing weekend ;D / xx / GG
