Instead of studying for my upcoming Psychology exam or writing the three papers that I have to hand in on Monday, I’ve started channeling all my energy into procrastination and art projects. Ever since leaving art school for the semester (something I’m starting to severely regret at this point), I’ve been craving art projects like Pete Doherty’s cat craves crack. (Haaaa, alliteration.) I’ve started a little notebook with sketches and ideas for photoshoots, drawings, and paintings. This week, I decided to actually start some of the projects I’d had in my head.

On Wednesday, I went to the Pratt store and the hardware store to buy a canvas and some paint. Then, I spent the afternoon on my friend Carianne’s rooftop spray-painting a tree branch gold and doing abstract painting on the canvas I bought (pictured above). If you think that the painting looks kind of like a sidewalk with gum and bird poop smeared all over it, GOOD. That’s exactly what I was going for.
