Thelma and Louise File

  • Suzannah
    The 'Thelma and Louise' File, inspired by the photo taking in the famous film - throw the camera out to arms length, and just shoot. Framing, sizing...it's irrelevant. Its all about capturing the moment. Here's me, capturing the moment with special friends, near and far....

drawing for fun

last night, I went to a life drawing class in Smith Street, Fitzroy. For fun.

Now those of you who've been reading these musings for a few years now will remember the hilarity of my first life drawing efforts, when I began uni last year.

Last night I realised, I am still no master at the life drawing. But they aren't AS bad as the first set...and I enjoyed the evening. It's kind of relaxing, although the short poses (2 and 5 minutes) are not long enough for me...I like the longer poses!!

This is all for my visual diary to build up work for my final project for Studio Theory, which will be the Madonna piece.

Today I am at home, writing and trying to finish assignments.

Words to Live By

  • WABI SABI
    ...the beauty of things impermanent and incomplete.... Wabi-Sabi is the release of control. It avoids beating up the creative soulo for not achieving perfection. Recognising and embracing our imperfections allows room for growth. The only result for demanding perfection is certain failure... prefection is a cruel boss. It leads to giving up, depression and anger rather than eagerness for growth and improvement. Living a Wabi-Sabi life means letting go of the stress of competition, relentless achievement, and replacing them with a willingness to let life find its own pace... In a Wabi-Sabi life, you recognise all things are impermanent, imperfect and incomplete. Once you open the door to imperfection, a creative force rushes into your life... We dont know what will happen tomorrow. Often we cant influence the future. What we think of as failure is simply a lack if knowing. You dont always have to know. And you dont always have to be in control. Take off that heavy obligation of knowing and controlling...then decide right now. In this moment. To live and grow, And leave perfection behind. - Quinn McDonald - Sommerset Studio March/April 2006
