Inspiration!!

First of all, I've begun to wonder if anyone reads this, especially since I post so rarely. So yeah, all you non-existant readers (who happen to be reading this at the moment ;) ) Feel free to comment or something so I know you, in fact, exist. Otherwise I'm just talking to myself in writing, and that's just overall unappealing, and even a bit pathetic.
I really haven't been able to think of anything to draw lately. I like drawing people, that's been my focus of late, but I avoid men/boys (for some reason I have no ability to draw them), and you can only draw so many girls in pretty dresses standing under trees (with the occasional bow in hand). That seems to be my style, and it's growing quite boring. So, I just decided today that I'm going to put a little story to my drawings. I draw a lot of people, but I rarely draw scenarios. That's my new goal, scenarios. :) The first one that came to mind, damsel in distress, a knight (yes in literal shining armor), classic. One thing I forgot to mention, I also hate drawing multiple characters on the same paper/canvas/drawingpad thingy. That makes drawing a scenario of a damsel in distress and such pretty challenging. Inspiration to the rescue!!!! I've decided to do a series of drawings, each featuring the character at a certain part of the scene and hang them around my room. The first? Well actually I'm already halfway done with it. It's the damsel...and guess what? Yup, she's in distress. The drawing is actually focused on her face (bowed, eyes closed, tear running down her cheek) and it cuts off around the bottom of her ribcage. She's tied to a tree, or a post or something. Next comes the knight riding to her rescue. Then possibly the two of them together after she's been saved, or her showing her gratitude (probably giving him a true knighthood for his bravery). So yup, that's my project for the moment, I'm kinda excited about it. :) Now I just have to decide if I want it in color or black and white.  Oh and another message to people reading this sentence; :) I will not be posting pictures of the drawings, so you'll have to come over and check out my walls if you want to see the finished product. :)

Writing.. words. :)

I've been writing more lately. :) I love it!!! I went for a run, another thing I absolutely love!!! So I'm excited  I'm auxillary pioneering this month and our circuit overseer is here this week. :) Anyway, I have nothing more to say. Happiness today, feeling productive as of late. That's about it... Oh! I forgot! Girls' Night was a hit today, lots of pictures, and outdoors fun, and pasta for dinner. Later, we watched MegaMind which is an amazing movie!!!!!! :D Anyway...Goodnight, service in the morning. :)
