A memory I have from when I was young. I thought her hair was beautiful.

what do you mean that's not what spacemen do? EVERYONE knows you do funky space ballet in "Zero G" when you go to space. duh.

monday will be my 200th post. wooooo.

Wednesday

mario! mario.

(I was not feeling so hot earlier (actually I was, I think I had a fever) so I took it easy. Kenneth got that new mario game for the Wii today. please accept this sub-par drawing of two marios.)

Italians, man.

no real significance to this, it's just late and I'd like to get to bed.

I havent been thinking much about artmaking the last couple of weeks. I think it's mostly from trying to adjust to working again. it'll come back, I think. doing daily drawings helps. the shame of putting so little effort into a drawing one day pushes me to do a better one the following day. or the shame of several days built up. ahem. my art peeps may or may not know what I'm talking about.

anyway this girl is getting abducted. she's pretty surprised! please click on the image to see it big. I'd have saved it even bigger if it wasn't such a big file.

Wednesday, of course

woo, good hair day!

I get real nostalgic for Final Fantasy 8. I was playing it a lot and really fell in love with the characters right around when I was 13-14, just as I was moving across the province and graduating to highschool and all that. maybe I'll tell y'all more about it sometime.

feel free to show me some chocobo love down in the comments. or maybe a video game or song from a game that you find especially nostalgic? for me it's definitely this particular song.

So I was working on this and yeah. it ended up looking not real great! it's got 14 frames, and I didnt put it all together till the very end. however, I spent a bunch of time on it so I'm going to post it today anyway!

SHE IS SURPRISED BY SOMETHING UP AND TO HER LEFT.

I hope to do a few more days like this with .gif animations. consider it testing the waters. I really ought to think back to the short workshop that I did in highschool. there was lots I was told and shown that I should put to use now.

also, I guess I should learn more about using Flash for animation? any leads on a cheap way to do this? I can't remember what my brother Nathan used to use to put his together.I think he may have paid for a program. I know very little about any of this. D:

hope everyone is doing well! I'm doing pretty good overall. :)

Wednesday

last minute drawing. thinking about deserts.

Wednesday

go go gadget androgyny.

oh, also: it's 24hour comic day on saturday. go visit your local comic book shops yo, and bring some munchies for the hardworking comic artists! I'm thinking about giving it an unofficial try, but I'm unsure. I think it may be better for me to start off a little slower. I've got some ideas brewing, I will need to learn this from the ground up. the paper up.

anyway.

wednesday! it feels like monday. sheesh.

Wednesday

awww.

can anybody guess what happens next????

Wednesday

ran out of time today because I was watching Warehouse 13. it is a pretty great show. so instead of squid you get me poking around the colour wheel. my old pal.

Oh, wednesday

Ohai.

Wednesday

THIS GLASS IS GETTING IN THE WAY OF OUR SHOWDOWN.

Wednesday

I really do. I can't think of a more interesting storytelling medium (not that I don't also love other storytelling mediums!). Every few years I come across a game that I just get completely obsessed with. it's a good feeling. :)

ah, I thought of all kinds of things to say here while I was drawing, but now I'm drawing a blank. oh well!

hope you are all well.

Wednesday

hey, s'up?
