Ren Faire - Opening Week

Willard and I just got back from going to the local renaissance festival today. It was fun but kind of boring since I left.

Since the management changed, most of the cast is different, and some of the fun events/acts got taken out.. ... .. its turned lame. I hate to think a place I once loved, went this direction.. but I guess it always has to happen. It was on its way down anyway, the guy that owned the land was a doucher, so its his fault.
I blame his old self.

It was nice meeting up with people I haven't seen in agggges, especially my old boss from there, Beth. She's pretty cool, we bought a Mortar & pestle from her, something we finally managed to get.

In other news, my search for a corset has once again been unsuccessful.
I could not find one for under $100.. its pretty ridiculous. I mean, I completely understand the idea of profit and yadda yadda... but some of them... they definitely weren't worth that much.
But whatever, you'll have overpricing at small shops sometimes.

I can't say I bought anything productive besides a homemade perfume with a fancy bottle from one shop. The husband made the perfumes and the wife maintained the shop and bottled the perfumes. She was super sweet, too bad I didn't catch her name..

Honestly, I didn't think we'd stay as long as we did, but for some reason the day just flew by. I figured we would be there for maybe 4 hours at most, but we ended up staying from 12-5:30. I'm still not sure what we did all that time.. it really didn't seem like we did anything interesting.
I guess the atmosphere of the faire just made time pass quickly, but go figure I want to be somewhere and time stops being slow. XD

I will have to search online, or save 40983459034509348 dollars for one of the homemade corsets at the faire. Either way, I MUST GET ONE. I'm determined.
Maybe i'll try haggling..

We plan to go back soon, maybe next time I'll remember to take pictures. XD

Starting a Comic

So, as the title says, I'm about to start a comic.
This comic will be about my new story/comic, Citrine.

I've been trying to get this idea out of my head for a long ass time, so this is the only way I can think of getting out it out there and keeping the juices flowing.

I've been working non-stop for the last 7 days now, so its been a bit hard to rest my mind enough to produce something useful. Every way I turn and think, I find a road block.
I then get distracted by trying to figure out the road block, and then I get frustrated and get away from my work.

This is an ongoing situation I can't get over. I need to find a way to stay focused, its really starting to make me lazy.

But anyways, I rediscovered that I have a Flickr, so I'll be posting some arts and concepts, as well as comic pages on there. Look forward to something at least.

Binkybaby WIP sketch

New Blog Layout

I think I've finally set one on layout finally. The older/other layout was just too contrasty for how I've been feeling lately. So, as I feel more calm and pensive, my tastes do as well.

This one is much more fitting I think, and prettier.

Let me know what you think.

allergies.

I hate allergies..

They leave me unable to see clearly for awhile...
I'm trying to do art for once, and my cat thinks its a great idea to try snuggling right now.
(aka. I'm allergic to cats.)

Normally I'd be all for petting her or cuddling her, since she seems to not be as happy or healthy as she once was. But, she in turn makes me ill.

I know she doesn't mean to.. but why rub against me while I'm doing art??

....some things are just more important.


Art > Cat > Clowns > your left foot > Bubblegum > Forts > Popsicles > 3 eye alligators


I mean come on,.. everybody knows that.
