It's Starting To Look A Lot Like Spring

The weather is finally starting to warm up and as much as I like winter, I am quite excited for longer days and wearing cute dresses and skirts!

Today was the first day in who knows how long when it actually warm enough to go out without a jumper (although it was only 20ÂșC ha) I think us Australians get a little excited after winter! I wore this dress today when I went to get some decorations for my birthday next month, it has come so quickly.

It is nice looking out my window and seeing the sun shining even if I am stuck inside doing homework. I have so much to do this weekend as lots of my work needs to be handed up this week for marking eep! I have been working on a lot of art work over the past week I still have heaps to go!

My visual study is focused of self portraits so I spend a lot of time looking at photos of myself which is a bit weird haha. This photo is of a lino cut that I have been working on, inspired by Barbra Hanrahan. I feel like it has a sort of 60s mod vibe to it which was unintentional.

Okay so I have nothing against other people's paintings but boy oh boy, do I hate painting! I can never seem to get the right shade, or if I do, there isn't enough of it. It frustrates me so much and I try to avoid it as much as possible haha.

That's all from me for now, until next time!

Well Hello!

Over the past month or so I have been thinking of getting back into blogging and well, here I am!
I guess I will start by re-introducing myself...
Name: Chelsea
Age: 17
Currently: in year 12 (and have about 8 weeks left, which I am kinda freaking out about)
Subjects I am doing: English, Art, Fashion, Music-composing, history, solo performance and ensemble performance
(I am actually doing more subjects then I need to because I am crazy and like doing lots of things even if it drives me insane)
Plans for next year: I am hopefully going to be studying fashion at uni (if I get in, fingers crossed)
Hobbies: playing in my brass band (nerdy, I know haha), sewing, reading magazines, playing Animal Crossing (shh it's fun and cute okay) and painting my nails (when I should be doing things like homework haha) 

So yeah that's about all I can think of really :)
Here are some random photos from the last couple of months
