2012 Wall calendar! Woohoo!

I just put a 2012 wall calendar in the shop. This one is the 'Feathers' edition, but I plan on adding a few more in other designs. And eventually I'd like to get my annual smaller calendar in the shop by the end of the month. Go check it out! I'm mighty pleased with it. :)

Illustration Friiiiday....Ferocious.

Today's word is FEROCIOUS.

This is an old, old sketch, but it's what came to my mind. I drew this while I was on the phones working at a call center years ago. I think I filled up three or four sketchbooks while I was working there.

Illustration Friday Post: Boundaries

I've known about this site for ages and always wanted to get into the habit of doing this. This weeks word to illustrate is: Boundaries.

Give me a job, give me security.

Another week of not having a job.... I never thought it would last this long. I get leads now and then but they turn out to be dead ends. It's depressing, needless to say. I've started applying to retail again because I'm out of options at this point. I've also contacted all horse barns in the not too far area to see if they need a hand. Nothing yet.
I really wonder when a damn door is going to finally open for me.
(If you got the Styx reference in my post title, kudos.)

Meanwhile, I started running again. It sucks, but I'm starting to notice subtle changes. Except it's in the high 90's right now...in Ohio, in September. Next week should cool off though and I can get back on schedule.

Finally, there's a new original work in the shop. You can click on the photo to go to the listing. I'm working on a few more since I've got my watercolors out and everything. And for your viewing pleasure, here's some sketchbook junk too.


Adios.

The Outcome

The job I had interviewed for did not get offered to me. At least I had an interview and some hope for a bit. It was just not meant to be, as my mom said. I'm back at square one.

A couple more from the ol' sketchbook.

More Colorful-ness

Just a few more drawings. I'm really liking the elk with the patterns. Might do something like that on a larger scale. That's it for today.

Colorful Sketchy Things

Just some things from the sketchbook. I'm on a colorful kick. Putting my Prismacolor markers to some use. In other news, Cherry just farted while she was sleeping and it's giving me a headache. That's all.
