I'll be graduating in spring! Woo!
(Bye bye fancy Journal skin…!!)
Hello my lovelies! I figured I should post a journal again before it reaches the 1-year mark since my last one… 2 days early, woo!
Yeah, so things that are new for me… I made it into the Illustration major at my school! Yay! Mostly a cosmetic thing, but it lets me have priority in the ILUS classes and it'll say "Illustration" on that piece of paper I'll get theoretically at the end of the year. Oh, right, did I mention that? if all goes well, I should be graduating next spring! Not too shabby! It only took me seven years of post secondary education… heh.
As for what happens after that
Old Artwork and let's talk!
Old ArtworkI've been thinking recently about putting a lot of my old work, especially sketches and unfinished things, into storage. I've been trying to be very forward thinking with my art, since my tendency is to work really hard at something and then, when it's finished, to stare at it for a few weeks, months or even years before moving from it and on to the next thing. I love my old artwork, even the crappy stuff from highschool, because even if I look at it today with what I know now and cringe, I can remember that back then it was the best I could do, and I'm proud of myself for accomplishing it all. That, and I believe I was much more c

Banisher comic, Britain trip and other stuff!
Banisher ComicHello! So I've begun to upload "Banisher", a comic project I made in three weeks for my final project in my Ideation & Sequence Illustration class last semester. One page will be uploaded a day, with the last page being uploaded on July 4th. I really hope you guys dig this, it was a lot of work and I'm pretty proud of it, even with its flaws. We all have to start somewhere!
Summer and Fall
So this summer I'm working on a lot of art stuff, mainly trying to establish good working habits and to develop some projects I've been meaning to work on. I've been focusing a lot of attention on my Sable & Aster comic project, which

I dont like how this sounds at all either :/ I havent had any luck selling commissions for real life money as is and with the economy the way it is I dont see how this can help. Less known artists that dont make much in the first place and need that money to pay bills arent going to get much out of this. Especially when they have deadlines and due dates for bills... having to wait 14 days and then if you want a check you have to wait for it to come in the mail.... then you'd have to run off to the bank to get it deposited, THEN write your checks for your bills. That's pretty ridiculous if you ask me! I dont even like the whole paypal part either. I have one but I've never used it plus I dont have a bank account either right now. So if I were to want to use this I'd be one of those people that have to wait for a check and get it cashed or deposited into my bf's bank account before we could use the money. That would be fine if we didnt have to wait 14 days. Plus the whole points system is stupid in my opinion. Especially because they are requiring that you buy the content with points which means instead of the money going to straight to the artist like it does now, there is now another step which doesnt need to be there. This is great for people who just want to buy points and then spend them at their leisure but it's not so great from the artist end of things.
