So working on this piece got my extremely sentimental and nostalgic. Missy Higgins’ song “Warm Whispers” made it worse. Any time I am in between creative projects (not that my art crawl isn’t taking up ALL of my energy), it’s always this cast that I come back to. And I got sad, too, thinking about […]
what is wrong with me i neeever realized how much i draw this couple until i decided to post my latest one and felt like i needed to post something else years and years and years and years …to think they were at one point going to be brother and sister. O________o
I’m torn between the impulse to write all about my creative happenings now, but without full access to anything I did traditionally, or to wait until I get home (in like 2 weeks) and just take a MASSIVE DUMP (sorry, but the excitement of having my own flatbed scanner back at my fingertips just brings […]
I will always love this character. I love his design, I love his delivery, I love how long he’s been around. I love that he’s old, and he bears his age — he’s got nearly-grown children — but in some ways he’s still got the same heart that got broken by his family as a […]
OH HEY! What has it been, like, three months since I’ve done a substantial blog entry? Okay, well, given I had just enough energy to get these pictures on my computer, it might not be literally substantial…but I’ve done some work! Also, pretty exciting and validating is that I got two pieces into Murphy Square […]
So in the past few weeks, I’ve been redeveloping the past between Danyil and Ingrid in response to a very logical observation on behalf of an editor. Basically, I needed to recreate Ingrid’s descent from human to vampire because her original story didn’t fly with my handmade vampire logic. A baby turned into a vampire […]
(bigger version of this image on this page) My lucidity is waning and it’s almost my bedtime (work early in the morning), but I wanted to say AHHH! One of my biggest challenges as of late is finishing a traditional project — if it isn’t obvious enough. So I did this big group picture of […]
(My mom was getting blood drawn at the hospital today. She has very stubborn veins and so finally they used a bigger needle on a new vein, and blood gushed all over her arm and the floor.) Nurse: Oh, I wish we had a vampire here right now! Mom: Well, my daughter’s vampire novel is […]
I’ve probably got a new layout for OMS lined up, but I don’t feel like making it live yet because I’m not entirely sick of the one that’s currently up. But the image that I made for this new layout is really good, I think. And I also got to stick with the original pencil […]
So, because the upbeat song on the radio (Hot Chelle Rae “It’s All Right”) doesn’t fit what I’m trying to write, but I don’t know what of my own music I feel like playing, I decided I would take a brief intermission and muse in a journal entry. Last week I received my first of […]
