Sarah’s Creative Journey

So I have been pretty busy this past weekend and this week.  As always, I'm doing artwork whenever I can.  But lately, I have been trying to catch up on some reading too.  I think I'm up to reading about 5 books currently... Hah. Also, researching schools and internships when I remember to do that. All after work and socializing of course! But I promise you there is some good stuff coming up when I get everything finished. I'm pretty excited myself.  So you should get excited too!  Other than that, just check out the link. It is one of the books I am about to start once I finish one of the other ones. I heard about it not too long ago, and it looks awesome! Well hugs, love, and cookies kids!

So first two are the most recent project I've finished. But I still have about 3 more in progress ones.  The third one is a picture of my cousin about to hit the ball during his game.  And the last one I thought was neat and reminded me of a sunburst.  Plus, it fit the title "Fire." Haha!

Forgiveness The hardest part in life Forgiveness The most heart-wrenching feeling Forgiveness The hardest part of love Forgiveness The hardest part of unselfishness Forgiveness Through the grace of God and the strength of faith and the help of others and a heart full of love one can forgive Temptations, masks, lies, insults the devil is all around only one light shines through Forgiveness Those whom we love Those whom we don’t love Those who hurt Those who cause pain Those who cause suffering Forgive A life of love and unselfishness is not easy Though it is possible one can forgive The hardest part in life Forgiveness The most heart-wrenching feeling Forgiveness The hardest part of love Forgiveness The hardest part of unselfishness Forgiveness Another writing piece that I wrote in high schoo...

1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good. 2. When in doubt, just take the next small step. 3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.. 4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch. 5. Pay off your credit cards every month. 6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree. 7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone. 8. It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it. 9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck. 10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile. 11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present. 12. It's OK to let your children see you cry. 13. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about. 14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it. 15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks. 16. Take a deep breath. ...

So yes, I am making an entire post just for the link. I have to do something to credit the most amazing people I have not met!  So, the movie was and is amazing! (And don't worry, there are no spoilers in this post or link!) And I think, one of my top favorite Pixar movies--I've already seen it twice in 4 days...and it came out 5 days ago now...  I knew they would do well turning out the ending for the Toy Story trilogy, but as always, the result was above and beyond expectations. The fact that they can nail a story and work sweet animation into that is just so sweet that I have no words for it.  (I get kinda speechless when it comes to watching a Pixar or Disney animated movie).  I mean, it would have to be good considering they spent 2 1/2 years alone on the storyboarding and story development! (That's the job I want some day).  The other thing I really love too, is that they are truly thinking about the audiences. Just reading many books over the yea...

I actually did a self-portrait on my own, and it was not an assignment! Did I enjoy it? Yes. Do I like how it turned out? Sorta. Do I want to do it again? Not really.  Every piece has its time and process, and that is how you learn. Plus, the paper was free, so I would say, all in all, I'm glad I did it.

So I had duplicate/extra black and white pictures from photography class and I colored them. It was fun! And now they look even cooler.
