art job pls

i had a job interview today for an art instructor position at the local art guild and i think it went very well! they love working artists and are working for people to instruct in the morning because they don't have many of those so i'm like yeeeaaaahhh that's what i want! they were very impressed with my references and my skills, which was great, and i got to talk about a few of my artist friends and acquaintances which they really enjoyed too. one actually came into the guild at the end of the interview and they were like "i see you know danny!" and i was like "yeah! his wife too!" because they're both artists haha. i am really confident about it, i've been looking for a remote art job for awhile but the applicants are so high - a friend sent this one to me and i thought why not? i want to be an art therapist and this is a great way to start, especially if they need more morning trainers.

it also helps that it's downtown and i would be across the street from where my wife works hahaha, pleaaasseee.




LAST NIGHT I GOT TO BECKY'S DEATH and it was so fucked up lol, i love becky but also her death was so elaborate that i am like woooooooow this is great. the flashback scene about her letter to diane was really lovely... i have a soft spot for sisters with age differences. i love diane's character and how she's always pretending she's cold or nonchalant when really she's close with her sister (and pretends not to be), is a daddy's girl and spends time eating lunch and dinner with polly is RIGHT UP MY ALLEY. i love that she's bisexual too. idk if i will be able to get it but the scene where she's talking to york about why she paints trees and has a gallery full of trees is so goddamn good. i love characters like that, elegant, cold, standoffish, lots of people have issues with her... ends up being totally different than the character puts on - a little sad, a little sweet, a little dreamy ♥ <-- i can't believe i remembered how to do this, my 12 year old journaling self just jumped out



the tension is still rolling and the other world still makes me tense up and curse which to me, is great. hiding and running from the raincoat killer is way more fun than constantly mashing buttons so i don't die. the running especially is right up my alley and makes me hold my breath, i feel like i am actually running away from the RK in that moment which is *chefs kiss* love me some immersion.

i've been writing my dreams down this past year in hope to make them into something. i wanna get into using blender to create odd 3D human models like 918 and the original version of the godawful date ariane that was uncanny central to recreate these dreams or bits of these dreams. drawing them is fine but it doesn't let me get that dreamy almost-nightmare feel that i want for these. i add writing to my photography a lot too and i wanna make a zine with those things tied close together to create an uncanny, unsettling yet comforting atmosphere to go along with the rest of my work. i've got a lot planned that a part time job would be great for so i am able to get more supplies for these kinds of things!

my recommendation for you all, if you enjoy art or art commentary that is feedback based and not like the usual art critique videos, is solar sands. he has a lot of interesting topics that i don't see talked about and he's great to listen to when i'm making dinner, doing dishes, etc.

AS A FINAL NOTE, I'M SO CLOSE TO GRADUATION. i can't believe it. i'm so excited!!! the journey is going to be new after this, i'm ready to just like... make art and make art and make MORE art and then kiss my wife in between all of that.
