getting back to work, c’mon art mojo!~
wishcandy: Venus. oil and graphite on panel. 8x10 inches. 2010 Inspired by space, the 80s, and war. My intergalactic babe. Nostalgia sunday! I also need to make more neon space explorers. Clearly.
wishcandy: Sweets for the rebellion, 5x7 inches. Mixed media on paper. I was shaking from a sugar induced coma brought on after baking some homemade oreos. It doesn’t take a whole lot of sugar to get me hyper, given the right circumstances.This image is inspired by those cookies, dubbing them Rebel Girl cookies. I wanna do a bigger piece inspired by her! ♥
Take it as it comes by wishcandy Sometimes you have to be tough, let all the bad shit roll of off you and still come out of it a champion.
Darling what have I done? by wishcandy Lately I’ve been going back and forth between watching Six Feet Under and listening to the Scissor Sisters. It’s been a wonderful and interesting juxtaposition. Death and audio glamour. Been reflecting a lot on fear and not letting it rule everything. Embracing change and making mistakes. We learn a lot from mistakes and it’s important to do what we need to. We’ll do our best no matter what happens. We are stronger than we think we are. Take charge! P.S. - I put this lady up in my new shop.
Saddled by sweet nothings by wishcandy “Go out and do something. It isn’t your room that’s a prison, it’s yourself.” -Sylvia Plath  Whatever is keeping you down: solve it, squash it, run free!
Flying Blind by wishcandy It’s necessary to stop and enjoy small moments, simple pleasures. But if you slow down too much you’ll sink into the ground. Keep moving forward. You don’t have to be certain, just go. One step after another.
Shadows of our past & future, graphite on paper. 9x12 inches, 2012. Lately i’ve been in mourning. It was sparked by rewatching White Oleander. I’m no longer who I was a year ago, a month ago, a day ago. It’s both beautiful and sad. Happy to be growing and changing, but if i’m not careful i’ll float away.
stormsuxx: wishcandy.tumblr.com sashiko rules So sweet! Here’s a portrait I did of Storm recently! Glad she adores it. ;)
public sacrifice by wishcandy My last piece before I disappear into an adventure! I’m taking time off of my blogs and most social networking sites. Time for detox, new friendships, and room for new ideas! I’ll be back next month or so! This will have to tide you over until then. Look forward to new madness!
