Hey everybody! I'm still around. How's everyone out there doing these days?
I've been working a lot, sometimes day and night. I haven't been drawing anything for myself in a long time, just working on commissions. None of them are the type of work I'd upload here, so unless it's photographs I wouldn't expect much from me right now if I were you. Photography has been a creative release for me lately. Since it's easier to snap a pretty picture than it is to draw it, I sometimes go out and take pictures out by the beach or wherever I can find something interesting to photograph. I love it, just wish I had loads of money so I can buy the lenses I really want. I've been drooling over the Sigma 500mm, but that's way out of my price-range right now. Would be cool to have it. I'd be out by the beach every weekend taking awesome action pictures of surfers or animals.

I'd also like to upgrade to the new Wacom tablet. My pen is feeling weird and overworked lately. The tip feels a little short and loose. Looks like I'll have to replace it. Just sucks that all these things are so expensive to replace. The one I have is at least five years old. I guess it's about time. I think I'll go for something larger next time, probably the medium size. I wonder if that will make it possible to go more detailed in my work.

So, how's life for you? How are you handling the current economy? Anything change for you? I consider myself so incredibly lucky that I have a job when so many people out there are losing theirs. Surviving these hard times will really force us to become a lot stronger. Things are quickly changing in this country. Sometimes it scares me. It's hard to tell where we will end up in a couple of years, but I don't really like the look of it.

Happy Halloween!
