Got some resolutions out of the way early. I always used to wonder why I felt most creative when I had a ton of work to do but no ideas when I had free time. Returning to school and working full time made me realize it’s not cruel coincidence but rather I NEED to be super swamped with work to get ideas. I don’t know why, but it seems to be the case. Maybe I can only draw if it’s in the form of procrastination. Either way, I’ve started drawing again. Vector, mostly.

Still planning to, however I’m going to need to make time for it since I just was accepted to graduate school today. New year’s resolution says I’m still going to have some new art soon!

Accepted! Woo! :D

Here’s a sample of a future project.

I finally closed on my first house last week, and now there’s plenty of painting, yard work, and the moving of furniture and boxes to be enjoyed.

I already know where my drafting desk is going, so as soon as it’s moved in I should start drawing and posting again. Oh, and I’m redoing this website.
