Holy Crap

Ok so its been two months since I've posted, wow. Bad me. Well first of all the person I found to teach me turned out to be a total flake, (interesting to be on the receiving end of that) and basically was all committed to teaching me then never actually responded to me so we could meet up. So then I was going to go to the tattoo school in Portland but its 9 grand, which I don't have plus rent and my credit sucks and there's no federal funding because its licensed not accredited. So that's still a vague possibly very good idea, if I can ever manage the money. So I've been trying to work on drawing more, finding the motivation is difficult to say the least. What can I say I'd rather veg out and do nothing in front of the television or surf the web then spend an hour practicing my drawing like I should. I've been looking at other options for work type stuff. I'm attempting to start my own business taking erotic portraits for discreet professionals and I've got my first customer Saturday. Should be good, I'm getting $300. If nothing else, that money will be a big help with whatever I do next, even if no one else takes me up on my services. I have an interview in Key West when my family goes there on vacation to apply to work in a gallery selling art, which would be pretty awesome, mostly because its Key West and I'm hoping they'd let me sell my own work there as well. I've also decided to apply to graduate school again. I'm applying to the American Film Institute for a Masters of Fine Arts in Cinematography. Its something I'm good at and a career I'd enjoy. Now I've got till May to do 2 twenty minute videos that show off my skills as a cinematographer. Wish me luck.
