either that or dellusional
do we really see things differently to the rest of the world?
like today
i was at work...(wait X_O i still am..XD) and my boss's mums around 2day...and i'm supposed to be all PA like and get her tea and talk 2 her bla bla...and then i thought ...ok, im just sitting here, might aswell draw something...we had to do a portrait of an old lady during life drawing classes last night, so i thought id practice my portrait skills a bit XD neways the boss's mother was more than happy with sittin there while i drew her...and i swear to god...that was one of the best portraits id EVEER done like ever...i honestly thought i captured her really well- not just her face, but the things she was telling me about...i sort of etched it into her expression (hardship/depression etc) and i dnt know- i thought it was a really accurate depiction...
i must be lukin at it from a really odd angle tho cuz wen i showed it to her she laughed at it and ripped it into tiny pieces! 'god- this is horrible- u made me look so withered- and butch! like a man! hahahah!' ...i so badly wanted to say 'but aunty, thats wat u look like...' XD
i honestly thought it was a killer portrait tho- damn, i was soo pleased with myself...i dont know what made me think it was so much better than perhaps it really was...
ah well...*shrugs* i made it for her- guess its better to see it ripped up in ur face than come back the next day to find it in the bin ^^"
