Ultimate irony of ultimate destiny

Posted by Zhon - January 8th, 2014


I find it incredibly ironic that the bulk of my freelancing work lately is centered around writing about art.  I went to college to be a working artist, not an art historian.  I don't mind writing, but it is something that seriously grinds my soul into dust when it turns into a full-time job.  But I need the cash...  Funny how things work out.  Not "ha-ha" funny...  Bull*#$! funny.

 

I guess in the end I shouldn't complain.  Right?  I am sitting at a desk typing on a keyboard.  I could be selling death-sentence potato remnants through a sliding window to snotty college kids at 2:00 AM instead.

 

Ugh.  I just want to draw...

Cool story bro

I'm not in your position so it's obviously easy for me to say this, but just find time for it. It sucks that you're not currently able to do it for money, but if you really do like drawing just buy a notepad and doodle on it every now and then, because it really sucks when you want to do something but just can't.

Yeah... I've come to realize over the past few months that all of the things I complain about are completely under my control. Except for not being rich, that's Obama's fault.

Sweet! You are talented!

Do you draw anime?

Not since I moved from Japan
