Preliminary Sketches

All of my time today has been taken up by doing my preliminary sketches for my costuming class. So much painting has happened. I'm so bloody tired it's ridiculous. But, I am actually so proud of my pieces! Our assignment was to design period pieces, and I was watching The Importance of Being Earnest the other day, and I really loved their clothes, so I got my inspiration from that time period, the 1890s. We only had to make one outfit, but I really liked the male clothing as well, so I designed a couple's piece. :] I turned out rather well, and I'm fairly proud of them. :D

I designed a jacket for the female, so I also made a sketch of her without the jacket:

And here's the male piece:

These aren't the final renderings, but I'm happy about them. Yeah, I'm not the best artist in the world, at all, but the fact that I was capable of these astounds me. I like designing clothes; it's fun.

Nothing much has happened today. Just had to wake up early (Mondays and Wednesdays are not my friends), tried not to sleep through intro to theatre, and was given a paper and oral report topic for my philosophy class. blegh. :/ The way my teacher is telling us to write papers(for philosophy) is so weird. I don't like it. They're supposed to be straight and to the point type of papers, but I'm a creative writer for crying out loud, and he's basically saying no creativeness or fanciness. Pretty much, he's throwing everything I was ever taught about writing in honors and AP English right out the window. -_- I like philosophy, don't get me wrong, I really like the class, but yeah, the paper is dumb.
Funny thing though, I have a two hour waiting period between my theatre and philosophy classes, so I usually just sit in my car and read whatever book I have and listen to music. But, today, I was so flipping tired, that I just leaned my seat back and I actually fell asleep. xD It was a nice nap.
Now, it's 2:10 a.m. and I have to get up at 7:30 a.m. :[ But today is my last day of school for the week. Yay!
