Okay, before I get into the meat of the title of the blog, I bet you noticed I did some more changes to the site...yup, I changed more...dots are being connected. I think it's almost complete, although I reserve the right to change things anytime I want...because it's mine! MINE I tell you!! All MINE!! You get the point. If you do have any feedback, you can comment or contact me. I'm always up for some constructive criticism, so long as it's not trolling. Trolls are not allowed...they will be banished from this realm and swatted on the nose with a rolled up newspaper...if paper cuts happen, all the better.
Anyways, the challenge I've undertaken since I got my sketchbook, has been, well...challenging. Subject matter, remembering to date the damn sketches...yeah...oops. I kept forgetting to date the sketches...so the ones at the start are going to have vague-ish dates, but from when I know without a doubt when the sketch was sketched will be dated. I can't believe I forgot something like that...all the whirlwind of the other stuffs are clogging my noggin' full. I have gotten a few head shakes from the hubby...and a few "wow's". Especially lately. I joke around about the deep murky muck that's inside my noggin', well now it's on paper...in ink, forever, or until the paper biodegrades and then it will be lost. I am just having fun...and losing the fear of being judged, or fear of just drawing what I'm drawing. It's disturbingly cute and creepy. The goal is being achieved...along with learning how to draw animals I never had the courage to even attempt before. All is coming together nicely.
On another similar update note...I have begun a new traditional piece...yup, it's disturbing...it was birthed out of my sketchbook. I went a little too far on the initial piece...and tore it up. It was a solid design, but the creepy vs. cute was off kilter...it took me a few days to knock the idea loose, but once freed of it, I came up with something that had the right balance. All about the balance...that's hard for me since I'm very clumsy...seriously, my Dad bought me a t-shirt that reflects my clumsiness. Every time I wear it I end up hurting myself in some odd way. The shirt is cursed...or I am...or both...either way. It is an awesome t-shirt. I shall digress and try and stay on topic...don't you laugh at me! I stay on topic most of the time...hey, quit it! The previous paragraph was on point...the one before...well okay, maybe you can laugh a little bit.
The ideas are flowing, my minions, the daily list that I make are being checked off and I am feeling accomplished. Not only am I challenging myself traditionally, but digitally as well. Right now, all is well in the realm of the art stuffs. Before I sign off...look no need for eye drops again, this HAS to be a record!! Be sure to check out the site...it has all sorts of tweaks and changes, big and small! For now, enjoy your weekend. It's another beautifully unseasonably warm day in my neck of the woods...hmmm wondering where that saying came from...woods have necks? Do they have toes, arms, a head...or is it just merely a neck? I am off to the Google to find my answer out. Until next blog...
