i'm partially person. my handwriting isn't neat, my clothes aren't quite folded in their drawers, my books are in their own piles on the floor. painting works well for me because i can nudge it in the right direction to make a painting and i can get messy.
painting in general is an action of mess- i don't really know what's going to happen when i put a brush on the paper/or/canvas. sometimes something coherent comes out and looks decent. sometimes painting results in a fruitless mess, but that's okay, too.
in the workshop today i made such a mess. but i definately learned a lot about palate brushes, and i have an outline and underlining texture for my painting. its a good design, too, i think. the coloring was interesting, and i got to use negative space (!) to connect the face with the background better. <3>
this summer's garden is turning into a medicinal/culinary herb garden. with the tomatoes and radishes on the side. i even found chocolate mint at Hicks last weekend, and that should be interesting in tea. That, and peppermint, spearmint, lemon balm, chamomile, anise, parsley, sweet basil, chives. so far. the chives and lemon balm grew back from last year. the lavender and rosemary did not.
story vs. game:
the protagonist of a story is a character, a separate entity. the protagonist of a game is a person. people learn from example from stories, and learn from experience in games.
