Seeing Things?

I'm really worried about my best friend Vivienne she keeps seeing things I can't see and she possessed by the boy with the golden eyes!

I could kind of understand it if she messed with drugs or alcohol but she's straight as an arrow!

At first I thought it was post traumatic stress from the death of her Grandma... But Viv is too savy to be fooled by her grief or make it up so it must be true!

She must really be seeing this boy with the golden eyes!

It seems insane but I trust my best friend with my heart.

Hallucinations.

Hey for anyone listening have you ever had a BFF who you think might be hallucinating and I don't mean drugs? What's your advice? I'm really worried about her!

For example the other day on the train Viv thought she heard the voice of the boy with golden eyes & saw a Cup floating in front of her! She called out & everybody saw her... so embarrassing!

If I don't get enough stares with the crazy hair colors and overall "emo-ness"!!

Now I have a best friend yelling things to herself!!

A little about Me?

Okay, so if you have read my about me section yet. You may know like the two main things you need to know about me, Chris Hern.

1. I love Art. Drawing mostly, painting, some abstract stuff, interpreting others art, visiting the art galleries and museums in NYC and music yes it is an art.

and 2. My best friend in the whole wide world is Miss Vivienne LeFaye. We are bffs for life. As dumb as that sounds it is true. I am here for her for life and I know she will be here for me. Although, Viv, it has been a little crazy recently with all your adventures but I will be by your side for every adventure you decide to take! Plus it makes life interesting

Anyway, decided to create a blog so I can show people my art, art that inspires me and also let out my ranting emo side to the world so it is not bottled up inside me!

Anyway, thanks for reading.

Stay Tuned Peeps. Some amazing art coming soon!

Peace out, 
Chris!
