Oh mah gersh, it has been forever since I have been here, and we only have two members left! Holy carp. I know I have been absent, but wow. I have had back to back to back sick.. and I am not lying. Flu, chest cold, stomach flu and everything else. Life has been a bugger. Sorry guys! I hope I can get us up and running again =(
Oh lordy what a week and a half. Sorry I have been so, " not there'! Sick, stress and just plain inability to do anything creatively productive have got me down in the dumps. How is everyone?!
So, how we doing? I know this is like the least fun place on Deviant Art right now, but I am trying, lol. A lot going on in the noggin, but not a lot of productivity, yah know what I am saying? Collecting a ton of artwork for inspiration and design, and have really been loving jewel shapes. Do you guys research for your projects, or do you just wing it? I am a total research nut. I love to see what others are making, and take those ideas and improve upon it in my own wee little way. Of course, doing what I do, you kind of have to. 

Oh! I actually got a kind of commission for the first time ever the other day! I am really excited, bad thing? I cannot draw for myself worth squat... so I am looking and looking for pieces of this and that to make into a personalized coloring page. It is a, how to describe it, jeweled-mandala dreamcatcher with a spirit animal totem. Inspired by these four pictures, but with totally separate subjects. It's down to the nitty gritty, looking for the stuff. The Good thing? I get all the time I want, because I am being paid back in a favor, not money. So woo! Here are the pictures...

You wouldnt' happen to have a tablet would you? I have a few art programs I could recommend depending on what people have...actually, I think I'll write up a blog post about all the art apps I use this weekend, with examples!

Also: I'm pretty sure most of the people I invited to join haven't been on Deviantart for years, lol...I think I'll write up another post "advertising" the group on the facebook group...
I do have one yes. I have a wacom intuos with the painter essentials 5 program that came with it. I use it on occasion, but the whole pressure sensitivity thing bothers the crud out of me.
(after I finish the blog post, so we look more active, lol)
