It's Been Awhile...

Wow! It seems like an eternity since I've talked to you, all my lovely readers. I feel a bit guilty, because I've had loads of opportunities to update you on any and everything. Well, nevertheless, here I am now and I come bearing fruits haha.

I had been DYING to shave the side of my head for months, just to leak out a bit of my inner rebel and I do say that it looks rather darling on my. Of course you cant see it u close because of the glare of my lights, but I will be posting more pictures later.

I have started smoking, but not as often as most people. I honestly don't understand how one could go through a pack a day. Yuck!

I've also discovered a fondness for big bows, red lipstick, and panda eyes (my interpretation of "scene" eye shadow). 

Any who, enough about boring old me. What have you been up to? I'm sure its been all kinds of awesome greatness that I cant wait to hear about. Leave me a comment

XOXO,

Newt

Go-go Girl

       I know its been a nice minute since I've posted something, but every weekend I have been super busy gogo dancing and job hunting. One morning though my little sister was snooping around my room and accidentally broke one of my favorite mirrors. Though I was mortified, I made the best of the situation and took these awesome pictures. I feel like the broken glass gives these pictures a more interesting composition and provides great closure. What do you think?

Moving on, I will provide you with my gogo dancing outfit of the day. Youre welcome to leave any type of commentary, albeit negative or positive. Have a great day!

[4. Poor attempt at showing the back of my head] [5. Cross the two ends over in front]

[6. Tie the ends together] [7. Pull them in opposite directions]

[8. Tuck them in under the scarf/headband...]

[9. And tah dah!! You now have a very cute bandana headband :DD]

My Art

Not many people are aware of my infatuation with silk screening. Because of my absence of funds for equipment I havent really produced much, but I will let you see some old stuff. Enjoy!

Since I cant really print much now I guess I will just upload some sketches from my drawing book, and ideas on how I would print them if I could.

The Cools

Recently I was contacted by a young woman who took interest in my blog. She asked if I was interested in being part of a new site called The Cools. Of course, my curiosity getting the better of me, I instantly agreed. So far the site is extremely exceptional, and I like viewing all the different styles.

Battle of the Bands



"Battle of the Bands" is one of my recent prints. The theme of this print was a generic music poster. It was supposed to be about the hip-hop genre but the colors put me more in the mind of techno, or a band like All Time Low or Cobra Starship. Anyhow, later on I will repost this print featured on a t-shirt and if you like it you can arrange to buy it through me. The colors featured are florescent magenta, night-glo yellow, night-glo green, and a sparkly purple. Also there is a layer of black microphones missing. Please leave feedback on this print, whether you like it or dislike it. Thank you!

Happy Printing,

Newt
