Story time of "I'm awesome and full of teh win"
17 years ago
Story time kids. Gather round and listen to Miss Aly. Come on settle down, this one is a good story, full of action and adventure! Ok, ok I lied. Just my life but if you stare at my tits and pretend to listen that will be fine too.
Once upon a time Miss Aly had to paint a fairy tale painting for her sometimes wicked independent study teacher who told her in his honest opinion, just all the other teachers, that because of her lack of inspiration she wasn't going to pass Senior Jury in the spring. Miss Aly shed many a tear on this matter and life was hard. Not even the little fuzzy animals that tended to her could help her.
Fast forward kiddos.
Miss Aly finished her painting yesterday and stood back and admired it. "This isn't bad" she though. "In fact I think it's quite good!" She went in full of courage ready to brave the beast and his sharp words, this independent teacher from New York who works for Marvel comics.
She steps into the ring and hands him the picture after pleasantries are exchanged.
"Let's get it on! Make this a good clean fight!"
She eyes him warily, goes into her stance and has her dukes up, waiting to throw the first jab. He hasn't said a word yet, is just looking at her painting. Finally, he turns and look's her straight in the eyes:
"Alyson, this is FUCKING AMAZING"
Bam. Pow. Miss Aly is down on the floor, that uppercut came out of nowhere! Blind sided, the bastard! She thought..
SHe warily pulls herself out. He isn't done yet. Blow after blow he rails upon her. There's no escaping it!
Kerpow! How did you ever do this??
Slam! Are you sure you did this?
Smack! The colors are gorgeous, this is..just wow!
Aly's down on the floor. Why won't they call KO??? She's panting and can't take anymore!
"I'm not used to praise at this school after 3 years of abuse!" She cries.
He goes for the killing blow now. "This is so amazing..I just..hold on" He picks it up and carries it under the good lighting and whips out a camera and begins to take pictures. "I have to show this to some people. If you can do 3 more like this..senior Jury will be a cake walk for you.!"
3..2..1.. DING! Fight's over. She's out cold.
He pulls her up and says "Give me your hand. I have to shake it now and you deserve to be called an illustrator today."
Who won kids? Miss Aly isn't sure as you can see from the bruises she just suffered. But today I am full of win and I am fucking awesome.
The End!

Nah he'd win every time, he makes ppl cry!
But if something good happens... you know this means tomorrow you will be eaten by cave goats.
-B!
The thing is, just by looking at your most recent work- I believe that you have ALWAYS had that kind of talent.
So I wonder if...maybe...your teach had said those mean things to you, in order for you to reach your full potential.
Reverse psychology :P
But even with that...
Dont lose heart in yourself and at the same time, be realistic. Your art ISNT going to be great just on the first try!
GREAT art takes time...sweat....yes, tears...but your efforts in what you do, when you feel that your work is REALLY done and REALLY stands out above what you had done previously (I call that 'evolving')
Something to think about! *hugs*
I'm trying to not lose heart. I've been in an out of a 2 yr block and some personal and financial stresses have made things hard as of late!
*hugs* thanks for all the nice kind words though and the watch!
