Artist Statement:

Hello there,

If you have stumbled across this art profile, it means that you have embarked into the crazy mind of Avali (Jai Wo)!!! I'm not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing, but I once learned from a good friend that you should never start a sketch book or online gallery without an Artist Statement- something profound and distinct that you want viewers to know about your artwork. So in respect to you, me, and this online gallery, I will do just that!

When it comes to personality, I like to stay positive, up beat,sunshine-happy, and inspiring which is often portrayed in my artwork. Color is the pinnacle of most of my works, but my style mainly evolves around whimsical designs that are also a fettish of mine. Through my artwork (or messy random sketches), I try to explore different nationalities and cultures with a brightness and excitement of learning. And I like to give a feeling through my style that hopefully encourages my viewers to stop and think about the world around them a little bit differently.

Even though most of my stuff is sketchy and random gibberish, I truly hope that you draw a sense of inspiration or postiveness from my gallery, and feel happy and beautiful for yourself. It may sound cheesy, but if my artwork can brighten someone else's day, that gives me all the more reason to continue what I'm doing.

I don't know if I've given this artist statement justice, but I hope you enjoy my gallery!

Side Note:

Feel free to drop a message or comment, and I will get back to you as soon as I can. Requests are currently on hold right now for the lack of free time I have, but if you are interested in having me do a request, go ahead and send a message and I'll see what I can do.

Thanks to everyone who has ever commented or watched me grow as an artist!

Side Side Note:

Okay, so I know I just got around to updating and everything. I even revamped my profile page. But unfortunately, I wont be here as an active FAC member any longer. I plan on having this profile up for a while, and I may upload things from time to time, but I recently updated myself to a DeviantART gallery. I really wanted to start fresh with a new gallery so that I can continue to grow and develop my work, but its difficult to do that when there's two galleries, a website, and photobucket gallery to keep up with. So to condense my internet niche, I'm announcing that I am leaving FAC.

I want to thank all of the friends and views who took time to view my work and give their consent. Without you, I wouldn't have gotten this far. If you would like to see more of my new work, simply go to my website. (I'll be posting there quite a lot.) And I'll be putting a link to my DA page here soon.

Again. Thank you so much FAC. I wouldn't have strived to come this far if I hadn't started this profile three years ago. Thank you everybody!

Jai Wo

bruffleshnifHey-low there ! *SQUUEEEE*
I alternated cool aid red with subtile, dark red, and I cur it shorter and latyered. It looks awesome...I luff it X)
 
Now, Avali...you absolutely need to get on a roll coaster ! Those things are so amazing, it like flying..I wish I could fly...but I can't ...so that's why I go on roller coasters ! Theres this one, my favorite, the Vampire, that goes upside down five times in 4o seconds..corkscrews AND loops...and I went front row...twice..you can't walk straight after you get off that one..
 
And don't worry about being a vampire...I am too, I mean, I was in the amusement park, everyone was brown, or orange or slightly cream..I was completely white XP still am..and proud of it X)

bruffleshnifAnd I have you and Bart ! Who I can express all my feeling to and can count on to be there to listen and agree with me XD
 
I really love you lots :) *pulls you both into a mega huge cuddly bear hug*
 
Now, today I headed in to work again, and this time Josie acted like nothing happened O.o it really freaked me out. Really, I think that woman's bipolar..I feel so sorry for her husband..he's so nice..
 
Also, I've discovered that, instead of  listening to her complaints, I can go do something ( watch Gabi's evil and diabolical plan unfold )
 
Josie comes up to me and starts complaining about all these things I do wrong ( which by the way I don't, she just feels like changing the rules )
I pretend to listen intently, then suddenly go : "Oh, I should clean that, it's filthy!" and point to some random thing that looks slightly dirty.
This makes Josie mad, because I'm not listening to her anymore, and instead walking off. On the other hand, she can't say anything because I am in fact doing something useful that needed to be done.
I am happy because I get rid of her,she is mad because she can't mouth off to me but can't do much about it. I win X) Also, it is quite fun to watch her run around, annoyed and confused.
 
Now, I'm all exited because
 
1) I'm getting my haircut tomorrow, and I might be getting some red streaks too. 
 
2) This saturday, my class is leaving for a six day trip to NY, so besides having lots of fun shopping and sightseeing, I also get a break from the hassle of work and my bipolar Josie.
 
3) I love roller coasters. I just do. And there is an amusement park around here, which I adore. It's not the most amazing in the world, but it's definitely a lot of fun. Usually in the summer, since our family never goes anywhere I stay home and do nothing. This summer, I will go to the amusement park X) I even made a point of learning how to get there by public transit and I got a season pass :D

verziashello. thankd you very much for the nice coment ^^

bruffleshnifI'm not the only one who gets picked on, and then there are the people who never get picked on she has favorites, and those people can't do anything wrong. There's Francine, who was her favorite for a while, and she told me about times that Josie would sit her down in her office and have little chats while the rest of the employees were running around like chickens with theyr heads cut off trying to survive the rush. Now Francine left and went to help them and when she came back Josie asked: " Why did you go help them ? You didn't have to go work, I wouldn't have gotten mad at you.." ( Note that now Francine is not her favorite anymore, and is probably the most harassed there, it's horrible )
 
Now, I think there's something wrong with the way she takes care of that place. The worst thing is that, in times like these when I know I'm right I just don't say anything. That happy, perky, opinionated Gabi that you talk about ? When I go to work and am there getting all these lectures it just turns into a droopy, depressed, shy, secretly hating everything to do with the place Gabi.
 
There are people like Francine who have it so much worse off than I, and it's horrible to watch, especially since Francine is one of my best friends there. I just ...feel like my problems are so small compared to what other people have to deal with, so I always feel like I shouldn't be complaning, that I shouldn't have these problems, and that if I do then it's just my fault for not being able to handle it...I guess that's part of the reason why I can never get myself to talk back to her.
and man, I have to go in to work tomorrow...

bruffleshnifHey..I just came back from work.
It was just...horrible. (You don't have to read this, it's just one big rant )
 
 
Josie kept pointing out all these things I did wrong, and all the other perfect and awesome employees and I just felt like ..ugh
The thing I hate the most is that every mistake I make is the end of the world as we know it, and when someone goes and does the exact same mistake she just shrugs and walks away or just plain ignores it.
 
" Gabriela, you're not taking enough initiative, look at all the others, they all have something to do, you just stand around" she says, while in the back of her two of the guys laugh their heads off while putting away dishes ( and not at all helping us like they were supposed to ) and another girl ( who was cleaning things over and over, not actually helping )  and another guy ( who was just explaining to his fellow guys how he'd been carrying a plastic scoop in his hand for the past twenty minutes, and no one told him to get back to work because if you're carrying something it looks like you're working so no one bothers you )
 
I hate that they don't have any rules, and just make up things as they go. It is standard procedure for every one of our coffee houses to use the red scoops ( bigger ) and not the black scoops ( smaller ) for the salads.  When I came in they told me the exact same thing, now I'm using the red thing and they dog about me putting too much in one portion. Then they show me how it's supposed to be done and it's a fracking rip off.
 
Then there's the part where they just point out all these things I do wrong, and the worst thing is that they're right, I do do those things wrong. I mean, it's not like I'm not trying to be better, but I just keep screwing up and they're always conviniently there to witness...
 
I just feel like smacking my little head on a table ...over...and over ..

bruffleshnifAVALIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII   and BAAAAAART
 
*spazz attack*  You're getting highspeed ? Wow...I'm still stuck with the rusty old dial-up...
 
It's always so nice to come back from a really annoying and totally nerve wrecking day to read your comments ! Really, they just make everything so much better. It makes me all happy ^_^
 
I've had a pretty rough week, but I'm okay now, especially since I just came back from a day in our amusement park X) I've been on all the huge twisty roller coasters so many times I couldn't walk straight anymore XD
 
Speaking of straight..I know a couple of people who absolutely loathe gay people o.0 They keep saying theyre evil, and that being gay is wrong and..I'm thinking, why is it wrong ? I mean, love doesn't have to rely on genders...

bruffleshnifaaaand for some reason my message got cut there....well, at least I managed to get my point across, the only parts that's missing is the "I love you Avali and Bart" cute cuddly part :P it was the best part too !

bruffleshnifAww, you know...your comments always make me feel so warm and fuzzy :)
You are a really amazing friend and if anything, I am fortunate to have met you on Fac.
Otherwise, I would still be stuck in that same little circle, getting flamed 24/7 and having absolutely no inspiration at all.
 
Life can be overwhelming sometimes, I still have anxiety attacks from time to time when I watch how easily time slips by and notice that I've just waisted it and done absolutely nothing. I think, that's one of my greatest weaknesses. that for some reason I always feel pressured by time. You know how most people are content knowing they have the rest of theyr lives ahead of them ? I always feel like I should have certain things done by the next year, or else I would just be a failure >.>
 
In any case,  I know what having a crowded week is like, and the

bruffleshnifOh, dear Avali, it wound like you've had one hell of a week. Everything's just been happening all at once. I hope her sister was allright, I've had to deal with food poisoning one...not fun
 
And I am so sorry about your rabbit. Things like that happen, and there's not much we can do..but, I believe that nothing truly dies until it's forgotten. Our friends live on in our memories, no matter what, and we always remember the wonderful times we shared with them, and I know that this rabbit...hasn't died yet.
 
You did get throguh the week, and by the looks of it, you are still the happy, fun, cat-obsessed Avali I've come to love. Also, I have to admit, watching Bart sulk must be quite fun. But remember that, you always have bart, and Ollie, and the other cats and so many other frinds that will always be there, and will always listen, so no matter how overwhelming the times, you'll know someone is there.
 
I've found a poem a while ago, and I've come to love it, the last two verses are one of my favorite quotes, so I'll share the last of the paragraphs with you :
 
" Don't quit when you've run the farthest, for your goal is almost nigh. Don't quit, for you're not a failiure, until you fail to try"
