Went back down to the shop today. Ivy wanted to see some samples of realism from me, which had me going AUGH JESUS FUCK I CAN'T DRAW yesterday. I hate realism. Hate.
So anyway. Went down there, and apparently the artists that I met on Saturday liked me. They said I was quiet, which is true. XD I'm very quiet around new people. But they liked me well enough, and Ivy and I sat around and talked for a couple of hours. I was totally not planning on spending that much time in the shop, but I'm bad at just leaving places. Ivy gave me the contract for apprentices which basically says that I'm in charge of cleaning the shop and being everyone's bitch for two years in exchange for me being taught how to tattoo.
So anyway, what all this means is that as soon as I sign the contract and have it notarized and get Ivy my first $1000, I'm the shop's new apprentice. VERY YAY.
I told her that I didn't have any money until I got a job or Christopher sold, and she called a friend of hers and got me a good reference for a big temp agency down here. And I told her I'd have a full-time job and she was cool with me just coming by in the evenings and on Saturdays.
So oddly, it seems like everything is just falling in place.
( Drawins under the cut- a hawk, me, and Delerium. )And I have had a headache all afternoon. :|
ETA: And my paid account expired. I'll have to renew that on Wednesday. Balls.
