Researching Farinelli and watching the movie several times furthers what I have been saying for the longest time; there should be castrati in this day and age. Yes, castration is barbaric, but I believe that it's necessary in order to reach the heights of which the castrati of the 18th century obtained. For now, all we can do is digitally push up a contratenor's voice into the higher register of soprano.
But, all major projects are finished so I'm relieved. Which means that I have a lot of time over spring break to simmer and relax. Oh joy.
Currently working on a new layout. Not sure what the theme of it may be, but I think I need to take a break from all the regality I've been creating.
In other news, on the bus ride from school I actually drew something worthwhile! ::gasp:: There was this guy sitting across from me, and when he wasn't looking I would draw his profile. Compared with my attempt at Gerard's face earlier that day, this was a vast improvement. I'm happy.
I should try drawing/painting something specifically for this.
