I have returned from the joyous flurries of activity in the southeast U.S. that comprised my vacation. Lots of fun visiting relatives, hanging out with cousins, eating at strange locales, beachcombing, visiting museums, catching lizards, sleeping during long car rides, swimming in spring-fed rivers, and watching clouds on 3+ hour flights. So, yes, lots has happened. I actually didn't get any owed art done thanks to a trip to Barnes and Noble and some screaming babies on a plane that would just not allow me to concentrate, but I bought meself a moleskine and have lots of blind and half-blind contours as well as some doodles to show for it. I'm taking a leaf out of ~Winged-Evil's book and only using pen in my moleskine. It's hard but very liberating.

Enough babbling about vacation. Right now I have a list of things to do before I go off to college in August and owed art is on that list!I'm trying to be more creative with art in general, so I'm making an offer: If you're already getting a request or doing a trade with me, feel free to ask for something other than what I offered! I've also been working with my tablet & Photoshop more often lately, so I'm willing to give digital stuff a try. Bookmarks, icons, badges, busts, buttons, ACEOs, busts/portraits ... go crazy, guys, seriously.

Also, if you're getting a request from me but want to turn it into a trade, feel free to say so! I've been doing some character development lately so I actually have more than pictures to offer to my traders.

That's enough babbling on my part. Take care, everyone!
