Puzzles are Puzzling
16 years ago
Alright, to start this off I think every one of my watchers knows that I have been quiet for...a pretty long time. I can explain that:
First off, my lovely, wonderful, (expensive) pens were doing great and I think by seeing my ink work that they do well for me. But, recently they started to leak. I did not know why. My tiniest pens (thread thin tip) were the ones leaking, wasn't the large ones, because life is unfair, so I couldn't really do detailed artwork. Basically, I just shrugged it off and I just did my work. I experimented on doing everything in my power to stop the pens from leaking. First I thought I overfilled them. I cleaned them all out and started anew---Which didn't work. What they did do however was this--I would fill it up, not too much, and I would start working with them. They would be doing fine. I forgot to put something in the picture, I capped the pen and put it back for about 15 minutes so I could draw something into the picture. I uncapped the pen and found the cap full of ink. I did not know what was happening. It did not make sense. I only had the pens for a couple of months, while the person I talked to had the pens for years and had no problems. So I stopped doing the artwork altogether because doing digital pictures got old and I really couldn't do inks anymore. Then a few weeks went by and I was ready to use them once more, clean them all out and restart. Well, I grab the cleaner that went to the pens and found the box completely soaked, apparently the little cup that it was in leaked as well, which is messy. So, no pens that day.
So, I go back to the art store where I got them, told them my delimma (sp?) and they told me to bring my pens in because I got some broken pens. In about three days I got new pens and all is right in the world again. ^-^ And I got new cleaner.
Another thing that kept me from art was books and a huge puzzle (1500 pieces) of an eagle flying off or onto, a branch in the middle of the sea with cloads and sun. When the pieces are tiny, everything looks the same. -_-'
Another note: I am now on SA (Storm-Artists) under the name 'Hellhound' If you want to stop by, some of my artwork is there also, nothing recent that I haven't already put up here though.
I also have two pictures that I need to get finished soon. One of my mothers co-workers wants two pictures of her Golden Retriever and a Pit Bull. Inked.
Edit-- Be warned! There (might) now be a load of dark art from me (Like this is any different) I got a new "How to draw book" on Dark Art (witchcraft and symbolic symbols) It even gives the dark atmosphere and it even gives me a color wheel. (O.o that rhymed)
AND! (this is just going to keep going on and on..XD) There is a Novel Writing Month of November, if anyone is interested. You start on November 1st and it ends November 30th. The goal of the writing is to write 50,000 words (175 pages) in a month. There is no prize it's just something fun and challenging to do for Turkey Month. But, if you do get it done and submit it (which the website will be posted after this) and you get picked as a winner, then you will be marked as a true Novelist. So, I'm going for a rough draft of my "Hunted" Story. And if it's good, expect a lot of stories coming into my
storyteller account.
