Jan. 8th, 2012 10:39 pmSo, today has been a mad rush back and forth interspersed with bouts of stress and frustration that I sought to mellow during my brief moments to myself by watching far too many Emilie Autumn videos on Youtube. *laughs* I am finally finding alone time for more than a few minutes, and am drinking my chai tea, and still listening to Emilie on my player. (She's quite addictive.)
My grandmother has healed up enough to be able to walk with a walker, part of the time, so that'll make it easier. She still needs to be supervised to make certain she doesn't fall, but it seems we're through the worst of it. Hopefully that will mean that we all will have more time to work on our respective projects and such.
I have one more character portrait to do. I am going to start on it tonight once I've calmed somewhat; I meant to start it earlier but I was too stressed and that is NEVER a good thing when I sit down to do art. I just end up crashing my program, or finding my Wacom suddenly decided to stop working, or the computer turns itself off or starts stalling, or some other completely random and unrelated thing that always seems to accompany and thus exacerbate stress. Don't you love how that happens?
So, if all goes well, this week will have Free Sketch Day on Tuesday, and $5 Character Portrait Days on Wednesday and Thursday. Hopefully I will have more sequential hours to put towards these things than I have for the last few weeks. And I still have to complete the art for last month's Prize Drawing. Also, once I've finished this last portrait drawing, I'll post all of them in a compilation, probably tomorrow sometime.
Ah, I'm finally starting to mellow out a bit. Good.
