Haha, I'm ditch-poor right now anyway, so looking at pictures will have to do. xD; All money I can get my hands on right now goes to covering travelling and lodging-expenses for when I travel to participate in the national championship for concert bands by the end of this month. I don't want to have to snitch on everyone else in my group. Or sleep in the park like a hobo. ._.;
Sucks to be broke.

There is a good side though. Your an artist. And artists tend to make the best art when their broke :3

This rule, however, doesn't apply to the Polish so-called-musicians, which act like doing their best when their concurrents are broken.

(Because, normally, nobody would buy something good here in Poland.)

Haha, there is something to that. It's kind off odd. And then they live the rest of their lives broke and then they die and suddenly their art skyrockets in value.

xD I don't really reffer to myself as an artist though, probably never will either. It sounds very... big and grown up. The word artist makes me think of classy, nicely dressed men and women that have little ateliers in the top level of a beautiful house where they sit and paint out their inner feelingssss or paintings with deep, shrouded meanings or with controversial themes and messages, with oils and other things that can mess up your head if you are over-exposed to the fumes, painting on huge canvases supported by easels while they sip wine and cognac from pretty little crystal glases with ornamented stems. They spend years on finishing a picture, and they always wear scarves and hats. [/quick glance into Limely's view of the world]
The only thing I have in common with that image, is the scarves and hats. xD;
 
I'm not exactly loaded either, even after I've sold a few games on eBay for a total of £26.

Well, to tell all truth, I wanted to be a musician more than an artist, but I think the only instrument I can use is my own voice. The art only came when I was hanging around on Rayman fansites and whipped out my Crayolas and wanted my pics on there. Then it just because what I am today - in training.

Never will ? You're artwork is good, very good ! An artist is not made by fancy clothes. A real artist gives his feelings form in a really beautiful way. And looking at you're artwork. I say, don't let your art talent die. Seriously.

:oops: I don't know what to reply to that. Thank you, I guess. c:

On a more serious note, I don't want to become a hobo. xD I want to become a comic artist, illustrator or concept artist. One of those. If I get to do all of them at some point (shouldn't be impossible at all), I would be able to die satisfied for sure.
Another goal for my life is to design a full deck of cards. Every single card should be beautifully illustrated, and no cards in one deck would look the same. Well on the back they would, of course, I mean the side with the numbers and shizz. @_@;

You should design Pokémon cards then. xD
 
I'd just like to do whatever I can put my mad painting and Photoshopping skills into the direction of getting paid for it, at some point. Another part of me wants to record at least one album but I don't even know where to start with that, and there's no way I'm going on stupid shit like the X Factor.
 
Probably my plan in the beginning too, but it's nice to have a goal to work towards. c:

I'm clueless about the music-industry. @_@; Uhhhm but here in this town we have a little studio where youth can go and record themselves and their band or whatever... And it's actually free, even. I actually have a record of me smashing away in rather inept manners on a drum set (after a three-day long course in a band-workshop) with some other noise from the rest of the band in the background. We couldn't quite figure out how to balance the sound or whatever, so everyone were completely drowned by me. :oops:
But yah, since we have that in such a small place as this, surely there must be something like that where you live...

You lucky bastards...
 
You don't have that in Trondheim? I would sort of expect that, since the place is a lot bigger...
I hear it's been very difficult to access the studio lately, though, because the youth-club it's located in has been rather empty, so they considered closing it, I think, but some people are working on re-establishing it again.
Anyways, it's probably just some old junk, that stuff, anyway, that someone wanted to get rid of and just donated to the club. xD
 
Unfortunately I'm not one to dive into the realms of the music industry :P My music skills are purely abysmal and I have absolutely no concept of rhythm or beat, plus my vocal skills are subzero.

In fact, if I said I would be interested in tapping into any branch of art I'd be lying. To be honest I'm clueless of what I'd like to do as a career in later life. Accounting/finance does not appeal, nor does sport, drama, law or teaching. I am a lost hope!
 
I saw a bunch of Monks at the mall today!!

It was awesome! 8D

I wonder if there's a new monastery near by...I've lived here for quite some time now and have never seen any Monks out and about...
