Artsy blurp

Summer is closing in to us, which I'm warmly welcoming. The past semester has been spent abroad, in Finland - of all places. I've enjoyed the stay a lot, but can't wait till I return home to Norway in just two weeks! I've had plenty of moments where I missed my fellas in Norway, which at times weren't pleasant at all. Still, I appreciate the people I've met here, and the Animation first-years whom I've spent most of the semester with are great people!

I wouldn't doubt a second that I miss home. My sudden activity here was somewhat startling for me, as I didn't intend to - and rarely had the opportunity - to spend a lot of time on the computer, drawing.

Before going to Finland, I bid my 5-year old laptop good night. It had become a slow piece of junk which I couldn't customize to my liking as it was an old school-laptop that wasn't properly taken out from the school's system, and my home university would have everything I'd need for whatever I would like to do anyway. Because of this, I'd only have computer access when at school. To be honest, it's been quite nice. A little stressful at times, when it came to urgent emails and such, and sometimes I wished that I had something I could contact friends for free with, as not everyone are privileged with having their mom pay their phone bill... And calls and texts aren't too cheap abroad.
But I've managed.

Regarding my sudden activity, I don't expect it to last - and won't try to keep up a defined level of activity or anything. I've just been very inspired by looking at nebezial's stuff and videos lately, and wanted to try out some stuff. I definitely recommend checking out his art, the guy's been producing a smackload of stuff at breathtaking pace. My painting tests are probably also a curious direction of procrastination from working on my last animation assignment for the semester... heheh... It brings memories, though. I haven't done this for years - being able to sit down and just draw for hours, until the late reminder from mr. Stomach that maybe eating would be a good idea. I wouldn't know how healthy it is in the long go, but this flow of curious inspiration surely feels good.


As you might have noticed from the latest drawings, I've created a tumblr for myself. I had one already, that was dedicated to the world of Hirnagard - so I needed a different one for anything else I'd draw. It's pink and awful! Isn't that lovely?
