New Stuff is On the Way

I’ve been working on new pages and fleshing out story ideas. A lot of my time, recently has been spent working on a commission story. This has been financially helpful, as well as a good kick in my creativity! I haven’t felt this good about art and art making since before the car accident that ruined my drawing thumb. I’m so excited!

The plan is to work on the commission AND my comic at the same time. Now that I’ve unstuck myself, should be doable!

I have been working out some kinks in the two current stories, buy sketching them out in my sketchbook. God, I missed sketchbooking. So, more of sketchbooking to come, as well. Helps me think out loud.

I should have a new page of “Barcrawl” out this week. Above are what I’ve been drawing in the last few days!

Draw or Die Draw Together

So, on Tuesday I attended the second monthly Draw Together event put on my D.J.Coffman and his wife Ally for Draw or Die Club in downtown Pittsburgh at the Federal Gallery

It was super fun, and I got to hang out with some old friends and met a bunch of new artists to sit, eat, talk and DRAW together. It’s a really fun thing to do, to draw around other people and socialize. As an artist, I usually sit and draw by myself. It’s so much more fun, with company

Draw or Die Club is a club that promotes drawing, every day. For fun, for profit, for mental well-being. It’s awesome. https://drawordie.co/

DJ had a list of prompts to go from and you could roll a dice and see what to draw. I ended up doing one of each and an extra doodle, too.

I’ll probably do this next month, too. And if you’re in Pittsburgh come on down and hang out!

200 pages or bust…again!

My annual trek towards 200 pages is on again. I have come close for the last few years, but never made it to the magic 200!

So far this year I have 168 in the bag, with just over 2 1/2 months to go!

In the works I have 21 of 24 pages done for ” Gardengnomageddon“, I have 14 of 24 of “Creephunter 2″ done and I have 3 of 16 done for my Mobile download, Mini Phin “Imp”.

Then I have to work on something else to put me over the top. Perhaps “Sara & the Goblin hoard”. That one’s been in my head for 10 years!

Wish me luck, I’d love to make it this year!

It was another crazy- busy weekend. I had my cousin’s wedding Sturday after my daughter Emmy’s third birthday on Friday, the whole time trying to see my parents as much as pssible as they are in from Tampa this week for the wedding!

Yikes! I just wanna draw! I’ll try and catch up this week. Next weekend we re-do the kitchen!

Blah!
