So I think I'm going to start another blog called "Artdella." I need to have some sort of almost portfolio of my work up on the internet, because, well, everyone else seems to have at least one. If I actually (miraculously) ever win one of these tshirt contests, I mean......someone (or everyone) is going to be like "wtf who is this girl we need to see a portfolio NOW NOW SNAP SNAP."
Because that's how it is on the internet. Everyone needs proof that you're who you say you are, and they need it quick.
There's this website called teefury that I've been wanting to sell a shirt on, but it's not like a vote thing....you have to send an email with a file of your design to this intimidatingly great designer named Jimiyo, and they decide the fate of your shirt. They look through your blog and your designs and they decide if your shirt is appropriate for their site or not. And once you have a shirt up on there......phew. That's major kudos. More people will be visiting your page than you thought possible.
I feel like I'm learning alot through this tshirt thing I'm trying. I mean, I'm learning how to handle rejection......I've been rejected, what, 20+ times already? Mostly I just wanna give up, but owell. There is something bad that I do, though. I'll design something, and in my head I'm like "Oh, this is good. This just might get me somewhere." And then I get like no votes and not even any comments...... THAT has happened like 5 times thus far.
I'm getting a tougher skin, though. Thank goodness. It's actually helping me cope with my color photography class's horrendously brutal crits. I swear, those fuckers are out for blood.
Ahh well, I'm gonna go back home to Chalmette and.....keep designing. Later. :)
