The End is Near for Another Year!

Happy Holidays Everyone!

Hope you enjoyed my favourite 3 F's this time of year "family, friends and FOOD!"

What I thought about this week:

It is less than a week until 2011 and I was wondering about the things I wanted to accomplish in 2010. Oh don't worry it is all art related!

I wanted to create more in 2010 and that was accomplished.
I wanted to write a and post some of my creations "check"!
I wanted to learn more about the process of others art and in so doing take what I could use to encourage and compliment my process. "check, check"!

Some things I didn't want to do (but did anyway)

Whine about my process and become frustrated...
Complain I didn't have enough time to complete something...
Not have goals...

Some things that happened along the way (mostly unexpected)...

Met some great people and artists...
Felt good about what I was creating...
Happy in the moment of creating...
Actually completed some things I said I was going to do...
Started to work on a web site...


Thanks again to all of you who take the time to read and comment on what I am doing. It is very cool of you and your positive comments and criticisms are taken in the spirit they are given!

My Art Week:

I had to pull back from a project that I was co creating with a friend. I have too many of my own things to do and I couldn't in good conscience expect to give it the time it needs to happen. That said I have started working on my third project and I am pretty pumped. Here are some things I have so far...


Some experimenting with tones and a smoother inking setting oh and my notes to myself...




I also worked on these thumbs for another story with some trial inking along the way
Next up is trying to get something on my www.jahhdog.com site and a discussion of 2011 for next weeks blog!

Keep creating!

ArrrOOooo!

  2. Thanks!

    Nope they are two different stories. The first one came from an idea I had in my 30 characters in 30 days. I believe the Chuck Tara character is up in November's posts. The second is a story idea I've ruminated over the past couple of years...

    ArrrOOooo!

  3. I mean "YES" they are two different stories (my mind was a mess) but I used the same tools to do them...
