Ideas.....At 3 Am

Ideas at 3 Am... cuz I got home from work around 7pm and decided 'you know whats a good idea? Taking a nap.' No. Dumb. Dumb idea. I'm up far to late now. What has come out of this is the mulling over of ideas. I've had some ideas of comics that I've been batting around (cuz what, i'm a cat now?) and i've put some scribbles to paper.

I've been really into the idea of coming up with a story about girl scouts. I really want to use scout paraphernalia but I'm having a hard time deciding on what audience I'd want it to appeal to. I dunno. I really would like to write something for young girls to relate to thats comedic but at the same time I love adult humor so it would probably turn into something for young adults. I dunno. I should come up with a few story ideas first and see which audience it would appeal more to and then work from there.

I've come up with a new daily sketch theme. Lets see how long that will last. It's called "Everything is Science" in which I depict bluntly the fact that everything is science....because it is.....think about it....

Also I've been considering my wanting to do animations. I've always wanted to combine my love for music with my love of cartoons.....so animating to music? I've always thought it'd be really cool if i took clips of songs and just animated a character to it....I really like combining acting and feeling with the overall feel of the songs I'm listening to. We'll see....I have a lot of school work to catch up on.

What have I learned from this post? 1.) My writing skills need some serious work 2.)You can't start every other sentence with "I've" that's ridiculous....and lazy....and also 3.) I refuse to cut down on my use of ellipses. Deal with it.

Remember That One Time I Used To Like Drawing?

I used to like drawing. School killed that. I'm trying real hard to build my self confidence back up. It's hard when you feel like your only cheerleader. Life is gonna push you over but you gotta be able to pick yourself back up with no ones help right? Anyway, here is the final project from my digital painting class last semester. The assignment was to depict a forest from a well known story two different ways. Each scene had to have its own emotion. The morning scene was suppose to feel comforting and the night scene was suppose to feel threatening. I chose Snow White as my story.

I'm going to try and make it a point to post more often. It'll give me a goal and a reason to make personal art and not feel bad. I think I'm finally done feel bad for myself and now I'm just motivated.
