I'm doing well

I have learned that art that most art need a strong concept, I learned a lot more about photo shop, and also learned that Art takes a lot of effort. 
The area I need to improve are drawing subjects and making them realistic looking, and still better concepts. i need to work on the values and shadows for making my work better and more real. 
In three years I hope to be in college, Not exactly sure what I plan to do yet but I hope I know by then. I well still most likley being making art all the time. 
I have learned a lot about art, about blending and things of that nature. I also learned that you need to work on your art a lot and you can't procrastinate, or you don't get anything done

Progress

I guess I will start this blog with how my work is going. As far as my shark piece I'm finished with it but if i have time i will make some changes to it. I also downloaded a few brushes, they have been VERY helpful as of so far. I have started sketching out my next concentration. i working on some idea for the breathe piece right now. I'm trying to work in brick some how to on of them. Or I might use something else from nature I not sure yet. But I'm defiantly trying to draw my concentration pieces more real and cleaner. I think I'm starting to learn to at color better and more efficiently, and I'm starting to notice proportions more. 
      I got my hand on Apologies are for the weak by Miss May I, the cover art was done by one of my favorite artists. Dan Mumford, I also I'm happy that my piece got an honorable mention at the show.

Recent art, and other art related subjects

I'm going to start this free blog out with that I'm starting to get behind in my work which isn't good, but I'm planning to catch back up. I'm finishing up the shark piece right now and I just need to turn in my still life. I keep forgetting too turn it in. anyway I'm having a little bit of trouble filling in all the white spaces on the shark piece its becoming really tidiest. although its going a little faster using the dodge and burn tool instead of selecting a darker or lighter color and I'm not sure if I'm going to add teeth or not yet. I think I'm progressing as an artist bit by bit. I still need to work on the coming up with concepts thing. But I think it coming along well I usually me something to spark an idea. I also decided to add these lyrics from on of the best the devil wears prada songs in my opinion. So thats what I need to work on in art for now.
Reptar, King of ozone, by the devil wears prada




Bring it to your lips and experience
The sulfur infect everything that we've created.
Don't twist this around.
Don't attempt to justify what we know is wrong.
Tendons are torn and screams are released
Into a poisoned, mathematic atmosphere.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/t/the_devil_wears_prada/reptar_king_of_the_ozone.html ]
We're composing our funeral songs, note, (note) note by note. (by note)
We're composing our funeral songs, note, (note) note by note. (by note)

With this I declare that tomorrow is an allusion.

What if the clouds are fragments of mistakes,
Fabricated by the factors of our foolishness?

We're composing our funeral songs, note (note) note by note. (by note)
We're composing our funeral songs, note (note) note by note.

PROVE ME WRONG!
