March just slipped right away from me.  I've finally started renovating my studio; got a coat of paint in the ceiling yesterday, and the base coat will go on the walls today.  It's hard to even move with all the furniture that's usually in there filling up other parts of the house.  

I've been working a little with idea I had regarding memorizing figure proportions. I mean, it's one thing to "know" a figure is 8 heads tall, but when you go to draw sometimes you make the head too big or the legs too long.  I was thinking, though, of how we learn to write letters in elementary school, repeating them on that special lined paper so we know how tall a little "a" is supposed to be, etc.  So I've been experimenting little with that, and if it really works I'll be sure to share it here!

Once I can, you know, access my scanner again, which is now in a corner of the TV room, looking rather forlorn.

Hi :) I have been looking for an artist that captures the energy and passion of WoW characters and you're gallery shows that to be one of your many talents. I know you're closed for commissions, which I respect and understand :), but I wondered if you could let me know about pricing? I met my fiance in WoW 5 years ago and it's his birthday in February so I would love to get a piece of art done for him. I did check your website so I apologise if I missed it!

Thanks so much! I'm not sure if I'm going to be open again by February because I have some big projects starting next year! I will definitely be posting when I do, though. I'm also going to be restructuring how I do commissions as well, which will hopefully give folks more options while still keeping it reasonably affordable (hence why there is currently no info here or on my site!)

At any rate, thank you for watching!

Thanks! And yay! I never knew people were out there's trying to help street cats until this summer. It's such a great thing to do, and they can become such awesome pets (like my Sam has become!)
