There is a simple reason as to why I haven't updated my blog in quite some time--and it is because I have been avoiding it.
Recently, as I've started being accepted to colleges and the impending question of what I want to do with my life becomes more daunting, I've been more afraid to share my art. Now this may seem a bit unrelated, but the truth of it lies in the fact that I've been reluctant to update my blog because I haven't wanted to deal with explaining how my college quest is going (and that's not because it's going badly, it's quite the opposite). But it's just not something that I really want to discuss over the internet, and I really haven't got any of it figured out yet.
But as I decided that it was time to face this fear and finally update about what's been going on, I was reminded about why I even started this blog. It was supposed to be a place where I pushed myself out of my comfort zone by sharing my art. The blog isn't about everything that's going on in my life, and isn't a place where I should be feeling obligated to talk about things that I don't want to. And so it's not going to be. I'm not going to be afraid of posting about my art because I don't want to have to address the other things going on in my life.
So once I came to this resolution, I decided it was time to face my blog again and post something. And to honor this occasion, I have put together a little video with the footage I took at the Boston Aquarium over winter break. You can watch it here: https://vimeo.com/59876628
In other artistic news though, my AP Portfolio is coming along quite well, and now that I've got my concentration decided, I will be sharing more of those images. The images of faces over nebula and chemical composition backgrounds are the images that are making up my concentration, and I will be posting more of them as they are completed.
Here is another one of those pieces:
