The coming storm...

As of late, I feel as if I am standing on a precipice of some sort. Starring over the edge into a fog.

I'm finally getting paid for some of my work in the theatre. I've found a good group of filmmakers who seem to be genuinely interested in my endeavors and also in a future work relationship. Aside from all of this, I have an audition coming up. An audition that is bigger than any I've had before. An audition that could be the start of more fruitful relationship. An audition that would be the first real step toward making a career of this art I can't seem to stop practicing.

Amid all of these thoughts are countless murmurings of doubt, fear and above all longing. I desperately long to make a success of myself. I've made a lot of tough choices in my life and I can't help but feel discouraged at times. I can't help but wonder if I made the right choices. If I'm meant to be doing what it is I'm working towards.

How does one cope with this inestimable and overwhelming desire that is equally matched by fear?

And I can't help but find it funny. All the times others have come to me with questions and asking for advice. All the times I've asked others. All the things I've experienced....

...All I know to do...is breathe.

Gandalf's Staff



Still going to paint the staff, but it's 95% done.

Smaug Episode 4



So, I'll be cutting out my basic shapes for the head today and getting them attached to the frame. Then it's just a matter of cutting and shaping the foam to make the head.
