Hmmm... I wonder

"I wonder what's inside..."

"Heeeelp meeeee!"

Just got back from vacation!
Had me some fun. Finished about 3/4 of Harry Potter 7.
Got some sun. A few bug bites.
Now I'm watching some eps of Monk that I taped.
Good stuff.

Ever seen the old Ellery Queen show?
They give you the clues so that if you're sharp you should be able to figure out who the bad guy is. Isn't that cool?
Had an episode of Columbo on when I flipped on the tube.
Johnny Cash was in it. The guy could act!

Ok, shut up. Monk is back on.

Illustration Friday "Wise"

This week the Illustration Friday's theme is "wise". I was going for a wise old pirate, but I think wizards are do "wise" better. I actually need to get working on other things, but I thought I'd get this up. Need to balance creating with promotion. Doing the illustration friday makes me do both. I'm teaching tomorrow. I wish I wasn't. I'd rather be drawing, sketching, or working on my craft. As soon as I finish I'm zooming back home to finish up some roughs for the Tom and Jerry book. All struggling artists go through this, I know. Having to work at something they don't wanna do in order to do something they do wanna do. But sometimes it eats at my soul. Deprives me of the energy I need to do my best. What do you do? You have to find your fuel. My fuel is a mixture of fear, anger, hope, pride, and desire. Fear of mediocrity, anger at my own complacency, hope that I will be discovered, pride in what I've accomplished so far, and desir...
