Okay, before we get into the nitty and the gritty...still haven't hit 200...so head on over to Facebook and share the page, invite your friends...you can do that...although it is a bit hidden, now...with all the constant changes Facebook does. We are getting close...so thanks to the minions that are helping out with this...the piece is getting restless in it's file...
Onto the news...so the perfect day. What's that all about? Well yesterday I celebrated my birthday...a new decade has begun for me...which one, I'll never tell...It was a perfect day. Lots of love, and fun. It was low key, I'm not one for big hurrah's or crowds...just me and the peanut gallery. Tearing the town up...getting new workout stuff...a few art things...which I'm very excited to see what I can do with them. I was playing with them yesterday and I can see some really creepy and surreal things in the future. Which excites me.
Yes. I did art on my day of my birth. I don't do art just as a career...I do it as a passion, too! I didn't do too much, but this week I have a feeling there will be a lot of art. I am excited about it...still working on the one piece...he's part of the Monster series...which we'll get to in just a minute. Taking a bit longer because I just need to get the textures just right...That and I'm still learning how to digitize my traditional rough sketches...a learning curve, indeed, but one I'm having so much fun doing. I think each piece will keep improving...well that's the hope at any rate. I am still letting the canvas "talk" aka Abstract...when I don't have the time to put in on the beastie I'm working on...
See the segue there? Pretty smooth, eh? I have started a Beastie Series...that's mainly what my rough sketches have been. I embraced them...they are all pretty unique...and it really gives me a chance to push myself and learn the program in different ways. So far, so good. I'm excited about them...they do take longer, because I'm learning textures, etc. digitally. Traditionally, not a problem...digitally...a beastie of a different colour. I love learning and seeing them evolve...again it is letting the canvas "talk" or in this case the beastie...What is he/she about? What do they want? I know I sound crazy...what's new?...but I never really have a plan on what exactly I'm going to do with them...I just let them tell me.
Hmmmm....the more is...I haven't really had time to game...I want to try out Fishy People's new patch (that's Clockwork Empire for those that don't know) but I really haven't had the time. I am able to stay up at the PC for longer, now. The foot is getting better...ever so slowly...too slow. It's driving me crazy. Still not walking quite right and my balance is a bit off because of it. It is healing...and being able to be up here longer, I go for art...above everything else. My reading has slowed...because I'm healing...but I still do make time for it...for the most part what I read is what inspires me and fuels my art.
On that note, minions, that wasn't too bad...I tried not to ramble...thankfully the coffee had successfully invaded my bloodstream, as I got a late start this morning. I actually slept in. I'm still in shock...I think it was because the perfect day really wore me out...I will see you all on Hump Day...there will be art...and probably more 200 stuff...and shenanigans'! Hope your start of the week is a good one! Until hump day!
