Only 10 days until I'm off to Mexico for Christmas! I'll admit, I'm a little bit gloomy that I won't have the traditional snowy white christmas surrounded by miles and miles of family, but I haven't had that sort of Christmas for a long while anyways, so I guess I'm used to a little unconvention around this time of year.

From the looks of it, most people here won't be having a very white Christmas anyways. There's hardly any snow on the ground! Hopefully it snows a little more for everyone here before the big day. It's hard to imagine Winnipeg on Christmas without a nice, thick blanket of snow :S

Anyways, I know I won't be recieving any presents this year besides this trip to sunny Mexico... but do any of you know already what you'll be unwrapping this year?

Merry Christmas everyone!

So the other day I was writing an email to one of my lovely friends and we had started talking about drawing and art. It really made me think about how much time I used to spend drawing for art class up until grade 12, and then after that I don't think I've even touched a drawing pencil... at least not to actually draw a decent picture.

To add to this as well, I was just browsing through some other work on Deviantart and I realized how much I miss painting as well!

I've had these large canvasses in my room for so long now and I haven't touched them at all! It's such a shame! I think my goal for December will be to paint up at least one of those canvasses! Mhmm, that's what I'm going to do!

Anyways, I went through my grade 12 art portfolio and managed to find 2 drawings that I thought I might share with you. Here they are! :)

Studio Space :)

1 min read
I'm so happy! The studio owner, who has been letting me use her space has fiiinally given me some available dates! Yay for relief! I can't wait to get my own studio background, and eventually my own space!

Other stuff, I have a shoot tomorrow morning! I am not a morning person, so hopefully this works out ok... it should be fun as long as I get my coffee :)

Look for some new posts soon!

The weather here has been so strange this year! I really can't believe how unorothodox it has behaved. All summer it was raining, windy and freezing and then Septemeber rolled around and it became incredibly warm and beautiful outside. Throughout October it hadn't even gotten cold enough for the leaves to change their colour, but then it snowed for a day or two. The snow melted and it went to +7-14 degrees everyday... Now it's the end of November, and we still don't have snow on the ground! That's so untypical of Winnipeg!

I'm not complaining, although a little snow would probably put me in more of a christmas spirit. Ultimately though, it doesn't matter because I won't be having a white Christmas this year anyways. I'm just getting a little frustrated because now that the temperatures have become -5 somedays, it's getting harder to shoot outside and I don't have my own studio space.

I've been allowed to use another photographer's studio space twice a month, but it's getting to the point where I'm needing it more than that. I guess I'm going to have to think of some places to shoot indoors, other than in a studio...

I'm very grateful for a lot of the client work I've been getting lately, it's nice to have some money in my pocket, but I'm reeeaaallly itching to do some more personal stuff. I've set up a shoot with 2 of my favourite models to take place next week, I'm not going to say who they are or what we're doing, but I'm sooo very super excited!

I want to try some more conceptual work, as a lot of what I've been doing lately is more model portfolios, where they need specific shots just to show off their face or body and not really involve any sort of environment or idea. I've been enchanted by so many artists here, and on Flickr... I'm so inspired!

Anyways, it's day 5 of my gym obsession until I go to Mexico... I should go get in better shape...

Oh.. and on a side note... my dad's snowmobiles were stolen last night. That makes me so angry :(
