Art posts are public, everything else isn't.
Add me and I'll probably add you back! :D

So, due to me being a complete moron and trusting people online (I'd rather not get into details on the internets for all to see, if you really want to know and I feel like I can tell you, I will or already have told you) I currently have $-900 in my bank account.
NEGATIVE NINE-HUNDRED. D:
This is considerably less than zero.
In two weeks I'll be moving downtown in to my first apartment and will have a $600 rent check due.
So I need some monies super fast. Therefore I am selling many things in the next two weeks, the first of these being my mini-fridge:
Craigslist Ad with details!
Also in the upcoming weeks I'll be selling super cheap arts and possibly some dvd's, jewelry, books and an original NES if my brother doesn't buy it off of me.
Don't want my shit? Donations are appreciated. :D

EDIT: I also posted some earrings.
Here!
AND
Here! <-- these ones are for stretched ears. :)

I joined Twitter. Because I am a whore for the internets.

So I'm doing another internet thing for school! Participate! I know everyone is busy, but if I had time on Monday to be a lesbian for someones video project, I think you have time to make 5 minute video about your first time on the internet.

Internet Video Diary Project!

DO IT!

I made some flash for school. Here it is:
My Home is My Shelter.
It has sound, so turn on your speakers.

A link!

Everyone should email so I have lots of things. :)

I have made my website better. It looks almost the same, but I swear it is better now.
Observe! pie-parade.com
No new art on it because I am lazy.
Spring break yeeeeeeah! Only I have a whole lot of homework to do over it.
Also! Congratulations to Shannonhery! I've heard England is nice. lol

My student union is in deep shit. Let me list the ways;
Financial controversy swirls at UofT Scarborough
Despite deficits, student pols increase their pay
No Bluff’s: UTSC student union shuts down restaurant. Workers protest pending wages and union execs’ $63,000 raise
Debate, protests flare as SCSU heads for elections: Secrecy surrounds pub closure. Petition started to boot union president
And finally... Bluff's sit in, facebook event.

Video from the LolArts!
One minute and fifty seconds in is mine. Yaaaay!

Hai Alise-Ann,

Congratulations! You have been selected to participate in the first-ever LOLcat art show, opening on Thursday October 23, 2008 in San Francisco, CA at Varnish Fine Art gallery in the heart of downtown San Francisco at 77 Natoma Street at 2nd Street.

Your concept and style has truly impressed us and we want you to show your LOLcat artz to the world! Please confirm by replying to (email omitted) before September 29th so that we can confirm your space in the gallery.


:D

To celebrate my internets, here's a meme thing that's been going around!
Draw Yourself as a Teenager
( Under the Cut )
I was a winner. It's a mystery as to why I didn't have men dripping off of me. hahaha... god I hated highschool. :/

I got in the juried student show! Everyone should try to go to the opening if they can. :D
School is still insane. Bleh. :/
And my website has arts now.

I've been making myself a website; www.pie-parade.com. There's no arts on it yet, but there will be eventually.
School is very busy.
I hate Tuesdays.

SCHOOL IS FUCKING CRAZY. AHHH!
It's just art assignments... EVERYWHERE. D: I'm stressed, I'm cranky and yet the finished product usually makes me very happy. Happier than a finished essay anyway. Woo.
To makes some moneys I am selling jewelry and arts at this website; thesilverwolf.etsy.com. Spread the word, tell your friends, buy something, blah blah blah.

Also, I has a boyfriend. Hurray. Somehow I have managed to not scare him off and this is after I convinced him to be in some reference pictures for my next painting. :D

Nothing cheers me up more than lolcats.

:D
And Christmas themed mini-eggs thanks to Meg.

I'm going to try to show you guys my newest art project, but the link might not last long. This is because while the general belief going is that the internet is for porn, image hosting websites don't like it when you post images with genitals getting attention in them. So...yeah. For this project I took a picture of an old lady looking at some art in an gallery and replaced that art with black and white high contrasty porno. It looks pretty awesome if you ask me. Also... free internet porn is messed up and hilarious. I don't know how people can get off to this stuff.
Anyway! To the art. NSFW
( Voyeurism! )
Now imagine that all nicely printed on glossy photopaper and about 22.5"x15" big.
Moving on! Actually I have nothing else to talk about.

The excitement for the past few days came from a freak soap bubble accident. I was going to do the dishes at work yesterday and I must have grabbed the bottle of soap too hard because all sorts of tiny bubbles squirted out the top... and hit my in the face. Well my eye to exact. What happened next looked something like this;

I have never experienced anything more painful. So doubled over, eye swollen and tears running down my face I managed to stumble my way up stairs to the staff washroom where I attempted to rinse my eye by opening it in a glass of water. Two things happened here, the first being my eye would sting even more because soap and water are good pals and the second I spent most of the time gagging because I hate eyeballs and the sensation of opening my eye underwater grossed me out. I am a wuss.
I'm going to make a full comic about this incident eventually. The whole thing was hilarious in retrospect, seeing as I was brought to my knees by a tiny soap bubble.
When I was able to kind of see and think straight I managed to go back to work with a swollen, sore and leaking grossness eye. It's still leaking grossness today. :(
So. That's about all that's happened. I have today and tomorrow off and I work at 1 on Wednesday.I don't think I'm going to have a day off for a while after this, I asked for the 20th off because I have a Doctor's appointment so I have a feeling I won't be off until then or the day before.
Mural lady hasn't paid me yet. She's emailed me about fixing something I can't fix without repainting whole sections (besides painting over electrical covers is stupid) and I can see her car in the driveway so it's not like she's not home. Her older daughter spent a day with Kyra at the trailer and they were there to pick her up so she is just stalling with the money giving.
I have to renew my health card today because it expires on Friday. EFFORT. Blah.
Also Unicorn vs. Narwhal.

Today I was dragged out of bed by Jehovah's Witnesses at my door. Here is some proof.

It was a very nice tiny old lady and she gave me this booklet. The questions she asked me about God were pretty awkward, mostly because I lied and said I was on the fence about the whole thing. I drew the line when she asked if she could call me later to talk using the excuse that this was my parents’ house.
Well! That was an interesting start to my day and probably the most interesting thing that has happened. Yesterday I lazed around mostly except for the few hours I spent finishing mural. That's right, finishing. It's finally done. Here are some pictures; they're huge just to let people with slow internets know. ( Under here! )
So there's lots of things wrong with the whole thing, but if I spent time fixing everything I wasn't happy with it would never be done. I'm not a big fan of drawing fairies either so I am glad to be finished.
I work today at 3 and then work for the next few days after that. As usual, I don't have my hours for after Sunday so I have no idea when I'll be back. Blah.

Here are some mural pictures as of yesterday. Right now all I have finished is the unicorn, the tree is almost done... maybe.

The bottom half is pretty much done, so I still have to do from the fairy in the trunk up. Bleh. The thing I'm most proud of are those rocks. Those are some fine freehanded from memory rocks.
( And the unicorn is under the cut )
Today I paint more once I get off my ass. Blaaaaah.
I was going to post something else but I forgot what it was. Dammit.

Horses have weird anatomy. Being lazy I never really bothered learning how to draw them, so when Mural Lady requested a unicorn I had to use reference pictures. I decided not to use reference pictures of unicorns, because it's all someone else's style and they're all usually grossly skinny. The one thing I do know about horse anatomy is that they have a good amount of muscle on them. To keep it on the thin side I looked at pictures of skinnier horses, nothing thick like a Clydesdale. Happy with the sketch I send it to Mural Lady with the rest of my sketches of fairies and crap. Her response?
I like everything but the unicorn. Can you make it less "thick" with its head up sort of more alert and proud? Make sense? It's really hard to describe what I can see in my head.....
So now I have to draw some sickly stereotype unicorn. Well not really stereotype more of a following the traditional myth but not in an ugly way. So crazy skinny deer legs all around. Bleh. As for the proud part, I think I need to make its head tilted and look off into the distance in some mysterious sort of way. :/
So! I am back from my four days of work. I have tomorrow off, but I have no idea what I'll be working next week. Nothing exciting happened while I was at the trailer. I may or may not be getting a raise and a really big storm came through and I took pictures.
