An art student that is desperately trying to get rid of that occupation.

A sometimes reluctant writer and secret poet.

A little womanist, a little feminist, a little dark humor, a lot of time, a little money.

    In the cleaning of the closet recently

    I realized that was a retractable easel inside there.

    How did I forget that?

    I haven’t drawn extremely large scale in quite sometime. Model sheets, storyboards and the like don’t need be incessantly large. Perhaps the lack of need for it contributed to forgetting about it…

    I extensively searched my memory for the means upon which it arrived in my closet in the first place. Strangely it didn’t feel quite real, how I’d forgetten. I thought, I would never forget that I share ownership of a drill for maquettes, or a bench pen for fabrication. How did I forget I own an easel…a very nice one, at that.

    Maybe it is not important, but it seems like a reason to make time for the type of drawing I used to do, over the majority of the work I dabble in now, for no other reason than that it made me smile.

    It’s not that other work does not, but sometimes I tend to lose sight of where my interests in art lie deepest perhaps because at times I attempt to dabble in everything for the sake of being drawn by the particular work of another artist. For the sake of knowing it to some degree because I try to intimate myself with their process, especially when I am intriguied by the person…I sometimes forget where my drive is when application is needless.

    Maybe it means nothing.

    Maybe and only maybe.
