3:00PM - Holy crap...

...I remembered my password!

As you might have noticed, I've been absent from LiVEJOURNAL for quite some time and to be honest I doubt I'll be present much longer. Simply put, I'm not interested in text journalling and even if i was my life is not really interesting enough to narrate.

Yes, I still draw.

Yes, I still sail.

Yes, I still have many delusions of grandeur.

Evidence of this can be found in the galleries section of my MySpace profile which is publicly viewable to anyone with a MySpace account.

Bippidy Boppidy Bonk! (Pencil and Pen) - A sneak peek at a fun little drawing I'm working on to accompany a story being composed by my long time digital friend Athena Nikos, A.K.A. White Owl. She would be the unfortunately unsuspecting character in the middle of the drawing about to be hit on the head by the magician's assistant welding the juggling pin. It's a work in progress, the characters are all out of scale with each other and a lot of details have yet to be worked out so just consider this a character movement and compositional rough.

...Well I'm done cat-napping (Cursed beasts and their bad influences), I think I'll head over to Ennui for a bit with my Mactop and and sketchbook to see if I can get back into the creative swing of things.

Out-of-towners wish me luck, in-of-towners feel free to stop by if you aren't doing anything. I'll be the one pounding his head against the keyboard.

Otherwise, have a very happy Chrismahanukwanzakah season.

Current mood: amused
