Actually there's nothing special about November the 17th and I was going to title this after a Yankee Candle (November Rain ohoho)
But then I remembered this little gem of a title and I think the 'Because it's _____ the _____' journals are gonna become a thing around here.
Since y'know, I suck at coming up with cool titles.

COMMISSIONS
-Commissions that are left to do are listed in my journal
-Many of these are AUTUMN THEMED COMMISSIONS, and as we all know, Autumn is coming to an end on December 21st. I'm looking to work on several (3-5) commissions a day, and for days when my carpal tunnel is giving me crap or my inspiration is lagging, I'm going to still push myself to draw these up traditionally as sketches then digitally draw over them. I'm looking to set myself a deadline on December 1st as motivation.
-I won't be working on November 22nd & Whichever day we go to see Ashley and her husband- To be announced. (I mentioned them a while back, he is the man who used to be my General Manager but is losing his batter with Clear Cell Sarcoma Cancer and has a few weeks left.)
-For anyone interested in getting a commission done by me, I will announce reopenings once I am closer to the end of my current commission list. These new commissions will also jump into the 'winter' theme, for anyone who is interested in that biz.
-Normally I would announce my art themes when I am announcing commission openings- but I'm going to make an exception and throw them in here.

I'm thinking of playing around with color themes as well. Not sure if any of you guys are into set-color Christmas stuff, but I'm into the 'Cold Christmas' colors. HOWEVER, this year I've thrown red up in there. It's weird, because my OCD sees the blue and red together and wants to separate them, but I am happy with what little I have.
Cold Christmas: Blues, Silver, White
Traditional Christmas: Reds, Silver/Gold, White, Ivory, Greens
Rustic Christmas: Browns, Beiges, Ivory, Greens
Elegant Christmas: Gold, Silver, Ivory, Greens
Other: Whatever the flip you want! ;D
Honestly, I'm just happy that WBBQ has been playing Christmas music since the 4th. The station doesn't change from that, fricksake it makes me feel so nostalgic and happy.
I have something else to add to this- but I'll be tossing that in later. It just started raining and even though it's a cold gray November day, it's really stunning and I want to go hangout around the window and watch the storm.
ILUALL SEE YOU IN A FEW. <3
