Im about to settle for a few games of Black ops, after a few days on the the tablet. What do you like to do when you've gunna chill after a hard days arting?

Just being slow, had a burst of free time but now im back to work (full time hours + a fuckload of travel sucks) so yeah they exist as sketches currently.

Also shaving dreads off, they are doing my fecking head in for various reasons.

Also also I having that fleeting feeling... the one where I just want to run the fuck away from everything, quit my job, move to a new city and all that crap (Done it 3 times, it just makes everything harder) delete all my art profiles and just start again at some later, wiser point. I know this never helps and I wont be doing it. I'm just one of those people that learned to run before doing anything constructive about what I'm running from.


Also also also, Douglas Coupland is an amazing author I'm ashamed to say I've only this year been reading his books.

Where and how exactly do you do your stuff most comfortably... I have a makeshift drawing desk thingy in-front of where my laptop goes but I still find I'm most at ease and do better stuff if im sat in the living room half watching something on tv half being social...

Just wondered, whats your ideal drawing environment, I guess I sum mine up as 'background social noise'...

Why must I be constantly redesigning my characters... I get one down and move to a new one, then just start again when the cycle is complete, I'm just trying to add more characters to that cycle...

I hadn't really thought through what I was typing, but typing this out helped me realise what I'm doing. So I'll share >.>

Oh well, summers coming, I'll try and get a head start on this one.

-Sketch

Somewhere it really feels like 'something' has come loose. Err...

getting dreadlocks

I must remove some of this doubt that clogs my mind...

My lifes pretty chilled atm, having my week off work, after crazy stoner gaming session, Ive decided ( realized) that the weed is seriously inhibiting me... It was ok before. I was a very casual smoker but oh man after the last year or so I have been baked more often than not and its fucking my brain so I'm ditching it for some long term time (depending on if it actually makes a difference to my art maybe for-ever). Its not addictive like nicotine or crack but you just miss it...

Anyways new art coming soon, working on references for my 'sonas... I think I can finally get over the huge mountain of a mental block has been Bunny girl Mels reference sheet, I've attempted it so many times, and it always ends the same... the niggling doubt, is it right... will I just rage delete it again? and also Ive been having issues with why she is there, what she really means to me... Oh yeah I also know that I ask waaaaay too many questions about things I shouldn't, that is doing my head in aswell. But once a question is asked it becomes a gaping wound that must be tended to. And also I guess I'm at that getting old point of asking myself why and how I fucked my life up so much. but I have new tools, new resolve, and a new plan. And I must learn to let things go. I am learning, it's just so hard. (ooh-eer missus)

Smiley happy faces and hugs all round. I've managed to stay focused (ish) most of today, I think things are falling into place. and after I get this issue of my 'sonas out the way I can get on with it.

It's in writing, it's official now. /scared face. Chocolate buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Why oh why do we get inspired as soon as we should be going to sleep.
Yeah I know the brain phases and stuff but CURSES!

One shiny happy goat.

My seven year old niece-monster is now strong enough to gimme a piggy back.

On a different note, what do people listen to while arting? Im into this chilled Hip-Hop thing, some cunnylinguists, hilltop hoods, drapht. What are you reaching for when you sit down to draw?

Share me some moosic peeple!

I feel a primal call coming back. I keep looking at things differently, the last few years have changed me a lot more than I'm used to,

I used to be the goat, aspiring for the herd, to be the protector of the forest, an evolutionary desire made real by horns and hooves.

Right now I feel it. I need a pack of warriors to fight with and beside not a herd to protect. It was a dreamy ideal that I can't live up to at the moment. I used to be the goat. But now I need the Cunning to hunt again, Teeth for ripping, new Tools, new Claws, new Eyes. anywhere but here, I thought I was fighting the urge to runaway again but it's not, It's the urge to run into the thickets and bring down the beast. I'll bear my scars. It's beat me once, twice before. I need the fear to drive me.

I used to be...
What the fuck has happened to my life.
Now I'm drifting, I've lost the light
So now I'll prowl silently into the night
Prepare to stalk, be ready to fight.
Then I'll be.
Me again.

Alot of things for me are completely fucked at the moment, and fuckit, I take responsibility, I never should have let things go so far down certain roads. I tried to lead by example, but I'm an example to no one. How can I be?

Also I know I swear way too much. It's a family tradition. but that' no excuse. Not anymore, I keep using these excuses to justify my sorry-assed self. They fucked my life and dumped me in it so why should I give a hoot about their traditions? I can actually be a lot more articulate than this but well, I haven't been practising recently.

Hopefully my dreaming will throw something at me in the next few days, but now I need some symbols.

:D

Really. This house is so complicated I just can't give a rats-ass about it anymore. So fuckit.

I has some evil man-flu, takin it easy, payday seems so far away.
I'm gunna stay in bed alot I think. :D *snuggles into duvet*. now just need to entertain myself. Bored and too wobbly to do much, can't afford to take time off work so I've been sniffling my way through work and just feel wrecked to be honest.
