September 30-in-30 Challenge Begins! Day 1
And thus begins my next foray into Leslie Saeta’s 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge. I feel like I’ve gotten off to a rough start but I’m sure that’ll work itself out soon. For day 1, I think I should have left well enough alone and just had the background, instead of adding the ink. […]

So I’ve apparently lost two months somewhere. I’m sure it was well spent, somehow. Anyways, finally back to doing some art again. I’ve signed up for another 30-in-30 Painting Challenge organized by Leslie Saeta set to happen in September. Definitely looking forward to this and because I’ve decided to work in a standard smaller size, […]

Happy Sunday, folks! Right now I’m in a good mood because game 5 of the Stanley Cup Finals is tomorrow night and here’s hoping the Blackhawks win it at home! Oh, and I have some art and writing to share as well from the past two weeks. Storytime first – I’ve finished two “new” fanfiction […]

Hmm, I missed last week for reasons. No idea what they are, but I’m sure I had them somewhere! I’ve completed three pieces and have two more in progress, so this might be a bit of an image heavy update. And I’ve also managed to post a new fanfic over on Fanfiction.net and discover that […]

Hey, two weeks in a row! I’m on a roll! And I realized that my idea of time when working on a painting is skewed. I was finishing up today’s piece and thought to myself “This didn’t take too long” but then I looked at the clock and realized I’d been working for almost 2 […]

Seeing as my last State of the Art was back in week 8, I’ve disappeared from updating here for over 2 months. Pathetic. It’s not that I haven’t created any art in that time, but a fair amount was spent in an art funk of some sort that I’ve finally decided to just push through. […]

Yes, I missed a few weeks in there, c’est la vie. I was in an art funk for a while and just needed to take a break, but this weekend has been really productive, I think. In addition to getting my donation for the Art for the Paws fundraiser, I’ve been doing work behind the […]

The local shelter in my area, Helping Paws, is doing an art donation/raffle event and I decided to take part. I donated my money to get a canvas, did my piece, and turned it in today. I’m a bit nervous because this is the first time I’ve put my art out there like this. I […]

So here it is, my first “State of the Art” wrap-up for week 5, aka the week ending January 31. I meant to post this on Monday, but work and not feeling good-ness got to me, so it’s a day late. This week ended the 30-in-30 Painting Challenge hosted by Leslie Saeta that I took […]
