i feel so alive and creative. today, i finally found the inspiration i had been searching for, to finish a painting i have been wanting to complete for months now, as a surprise for one of my closest friends, milly. i will post a photograph later this evening for you all to see the final piece. right now i am lacquering the canvas (three layers), eating sushi and feeling very pleased with myself. i believe the sky is planning on storming soon, lightning and thunder scare me when i am alone.
