can you hear me major tom?

One day I made blueberry muffins.

and then I realized how completely awesome the inside of a muffin looks! Especially blueberry :)
It makes me think of the Whos in Whoville from the Grinch Who Stole Christmas. I learned this year that they all live on a single snowflake, and it makes me think of an ant hill. So combining those two thoughts... did I eat a village of people? I mean look at those deep caverns and round windows and looking holes. I dunno.
What if we live on a muffin? I wonder if we'd be a chicken flavored muffin...since everything seems to taste like chicken.

anyway.

Then came this delicate beauty. so soft. I want it to be huge so I can lay on it. No. I want to be tiny so that I can lay on it.

Usually when I finish gouacheing something, I don't just wash out the leftovers...I do something in my sketchbook. So one day after working on fashion sketches (which I should be doing now..but am not) I did this.

yeah..

AND today I decided to take a break from homework and went to open model instead.
I learned that even though I am continuously taught to do a gesture of the overall composition then work back into it-fixing and adding and fixing and subtracting and adding and blahh. I can't do that. Or rather...it works better for me to kind of draw as I go and compare sections to other sections- proportions-placement-shape-ect.
anyway.
