Damn it!!!!
I was so freakin close to finishing it and I screwed up!!!
Ok for those who don't know. Long ago when I was a troubled gloomy youth. I carved. Or sculpted? Whatever it's called. So someone from this site who is currently avoiding me, recomended I take it up again. She said I was a very creative person and should'nt waste it. If she decides to never call me again I will still always be grateful to her for this advice because carving allows me to entertain the other side of my personality. When I create anything I'm usually very shy to show it. I also get very fragile of peoples opinion of my work. In general the exact opposite of who I am normaly. Not that that's bad but I have issues with voluntarlily being vunerable. Wanna hear something pathetic? I also paint. But I only paint people I care about. Family, friends, significant others. Ironicly, I can never show these people my creations because if they hated it, I'd die heartbroken. So I don't paint anymore. Everyonce in a while I draw a lil cartoon of someone. I have one of Muse and one of Mucci I drew drunk. YOU WILL NEVER SEE THEM SO DON"T ASK.
So I decided to start small. I have this wood carving of an elephant that used to be my avoi (portuguese for grandma, but it's a crime to call her that). For as long as anyone can remember I've been fascinated with this elephant. When she died and we all went to her house to split her belongings I flipped out and cried when I couldn't find it. Eventually I did. Very simple elephant carving= avoi.
I currently own 7 elephant carvings.
Counting my screwup. I decided to make one from alabaster stone. Alabaster is abundant in Egypt so I attempted an african approach. Finishing up the leg I chipped the entire leg off. I have a 3 legged elephant. I actually cried from frustration.
I'll put a pic up to show the disaster. I think it's a sign to either try something different or to quit this attempt entirly.
The Cap can't create with a hook for a hand lol.
PS one jibe about me being a sensitive artist and I'll hunt you down and give you the mother of all wedgies.
