Good news, everyone!
I'm going back to school in September!
During the last half of 2012, I felt so trapped that I felt like I couldn't breathe. I put walls up so high that I was disassociating from myself just to get by. I wasn't even doing the things I wanted, because, well... what was the point? But then I realized that if I was just going to throw my life away, I might as well throw it away doing things I like.
I went up to the university today and I asked about my former credits: they were still good!
So then I asked if I could register as a student: I already was from before so I didn't have to pay again!
Then I asked about working toward a major: turns out that since I'd completed two years of my Bachelor of Arts, I was due to declare a major! And that's how I'm going to be working toward completing my Bachelor of Arts with a double minor in Digital Media Studies and Visual Art. Will that get me a job? Probably not. But I already have a job that's all right... so I'm going to keep that while I go through school. No more loans to fund this venture!
I'm so excited... I'm going to study art!
I'm putting together a portfolio...
Hang Me Up To Dry
February 2013
Mixed Media on Canvas (torn paper, acrylic, lights)
19.5"x 39"
Destruction of Venus
November 2012
Mixed Media on Canvas (torn paper, acrylic)
12"x36"
...and you can see more at my website, odessafrost.com
Lastly!
33 days from now my newest set, Chelsea Girl, hits MR. I worked hard on this, I hope you guys like it.
