FUR

So this last weekend I watched the full intensity of Fur: an imaginary portrait of Diane Arbus.

It so so so interesting and odd and wonderful and I would really recommend it.

It's basically about this house wife- Diane Arbus- who falls in love with her neighbor who has that condition where his hair grows really fast all over his body.

Diane Arbus was a photographer, or is, I don't really know much about her, but anyways I really enjoyed the movie!

So I was listening to some songs by the decemberists and started listening really close attention to the lyrics and realized how they use such simple words. I really like that, they kind of play everything out in a really slow fashion, and with really nice imagery.

Then i was thinking about what to do for that book the whistling season. I found the one paragraph that i for some raeson really liked, even though i don't see what could be done with it, and i don't really see what's nice about it. but for some reason i just like the way it sounds when read.

--Cupping the black arrowhead in his hand again, he looked off appraisingly at the prairie bluffs around us. "With all the crisscross possible, this may have been a Mediterranean of a kind." As if Father had invisibly put in his two cents' worth, he gave a slight smile of concession. "Dryland, of course."

I really don't know why i like it

sketchbooks

This year I feel like I haven't been taking enough on my sketchbooks. I do once and a while, but I feel like I should focus more when I do them. Last year I always had tons of ideas and could never choose what to do for my sketchbooks, now I can never think of anything aka I'm really stuck this year compared to last year, which is REALLY annoying me. So Monet and I had a background making party and played with water color pencils to make some backgrounds to help us. I don't know if they really will, but hopefully they make some of my sketchbooks more interesting, or inspire me. Either way, I'm proud of us to have actually done something about it, because we usually don't. yaaaaaayyyy
