Graphite from a while ago

Sometimes I just draw about the things I am thinking of. These two are from late spring of this year, and are both about 15 inches x 22 inches. For some reason, I always have this urge towards text in my work. I think that propels me forward, but often when I look back I want it to go away. It's important for me in the process, but is not often needed. Here I like it, though.

An Organized Person

I have recently decided to be organized. I was never really messy, or maybe in college, oh wait...my room was usually a MESS when I was younger. I think I progressively became neater as I got older. I've been realizing in the past few years that when things are chaotic and a mess, I feel stuck. Like I will never be able to find anything. There are too many things to look at.

I started to organize my studio a little better. This is what it looks like :

Notice that there are a still a lot of things, but all tightly stacked so that they arn't piled on top of eachother. It actually looks kind of ... like someone with a problem did it.

Part of this has come out of having to make the most of small spaces in the city. I need those boxes and bins, because there is important stuff in them. But...I needed a place to put this bookshelf. I think it works, as long as I don't have to go into the bins too often.
