NEW WEBSITE
Q: What's the next step?
A:
Heh...
here
it is. See you in a year!
Q: What's the last thing you finished?
A:
The
new website
(and I fixed the links for this one!), just finished it this evening. My goal was to make something much more simple and BOLD.
Q: What did you do this year?
A:
I completed three canvasses in a space of less than three months. They're not too very big...2 ft x 3 ft...but they're big enough. I've chosen to do them with acrylic and it's been a real learning experience for me, for two reasons:
For the
first painting
, I had to use a pallette I have never used before...muted creams and red-browns mostly. (The other two are in my more oft-used combos of cyan//red and
blue//orange
.)
I had to make the brutal mental shift from straight black and white comicking to painting. THAT was an experience, I can tell you..!
I have also been teaching myself to draw comics. It has been a long, long struggle with rocky beginnings, and I still have much to master...but I feel that I am
finally
ready to launch the comic series I've been working on all this time...I look forward to the next year with excitement! ...I've also made original comics for a local magazine for more than two years...the
Things Fall Apart
series.
Aside from that, I've been doing my best to hone my skills at
digital art
(and as a webmistress for this site).
