was going to draw with oil pastels in the evening, but ended up cross stitching instead.

new sketchbook.. intending to hopefully fill it with landscapes... lil spring/summer project maybe / hopefullyyyyyyy. also got some more oil paints.. went for different tones of the colours i usually go for to see what difference it makes...

i was going to go to a life drawing thing that was egon schiele style and at 3pm but i woke up and decided to go back to sleep as was exhausted from work the prev night. they do some sessions on tuesdays so might go to one of those rather than a sunday one

week conclusion:

been struggling to sleep a lot, a lot a lot even for me,, but managed to get little bits done here and there. 

really need to get adobe again, but keep putting it off... i think out of fear ill lose my job again as its not very Secure.. but i think i just need to say fuck it and do it, as i need to start actually physically working on deld bit by bit and get stuff knocked off. its a project thats been lurking around forever n i need to be done with it..

cross stitched a lot bc had to finish the two b4 on coming tuesday as going to see my mum n grandma so can give it to them.........
