I met her via Raven, and it was a pleasure to shoot with this awesome Floridian. I only regret that we didn\u2019t get a chance to play some video games while she was in town, as she is a fellow avid gamer! Anyway, this involved about 100 yards of dark blue and light blue ribbon, which I thought matched her hair quite well. I\u2019ve posted some of the pics <a href=\"http:\/\/www.evanhaydenart.com\/photography\/chelsea_tangledupinblue.php\">here<\/a> on the site (or click the preview pic above), but if you want to see the rest (and hopefully vote for them!), you can check out <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zivity.com\/models\/ChelseaChristian\/photosets\/45\" target=\"_blank\">the full gallery<\/a> on Zivity. Again, this set is NSFW! (lots of nudity)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In other news, it\u2019s looking like life is bringing me back to Southeast Michigan again very soon (January 2012). Maybe it\u2019s not the best idea to mention this on my professional-art-gallery-<em>check-this-shit-out<\/em>-site, but this recession has been pretty tough on me (as it has on most people). My artistic output has dropped dramatically the last couple years (even the pics you see above, I shot six months ago, and only just editing recently).\u00a0 I think it\u2019s time to go back to Michigan to regroup, save money, keep doing freelance work, and just relax a little. I think this will open up my life better to being able to make a LOT more art\u2026 photography, illustration, design, music, comics, illustrated-photography, etc. I know from experience that I can\u2019t make good art when I\u2019m always stressed and under the gun. It\u2019s one thing to have an intense, stressful art deadline. That motivates me. But the constant stress of worrying about covering my expensive bay-area rent, going into debt, and living in a crappy part of said bay area, has been making it hard to focus on creative projects and has diminished my creative spark. I know it\u2019s living within me, dormant, and it\u2019s come out to say hi during times of less stress. I think it\u2019s time to clear my mind, lets the spark flourish, and make my best work ever. Sure, I\u2019ll be back in a comparatively boring part of the country for a while, but I\u2019m a firm believer that one\u2019s home needs to be a sanctuary, and I could use that a bit while I \u201crecharge my batteries\u201d. I hope this doesn\u2019t make me seem unprofessional, but no one is resilient forever, and while some artists thrive on living a tortured existence, I am the opposite.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I probably won\u2019t be posting much on here for a little bit, until I get resettled (or recharged here in the bay, if a job comes together in time). Stay tuned however, and enjoy your holidays, whatever kind you celebrate!<\/p>\n<p><!--StyleSheet Link--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello everybody out there.
