more sketchbook.
trying to get back into inking.
i still love watercolor tinting my sketches.

want to attempt a 365drawing challenge soon.
maybe when school starts back up for my friends I will start a-finished-drawing-a-day? sounds like a crazy fun challenge.

also, the chick in pink with the unfiltered cigarette and the Luger is Dr. Girlfriend from the TV show The Venture Brothers. <3

It's as if I'm terrified. As if I'm playing with fire.

graphite. sketchbook.

it's becoming increasingly hard to concentrate on anything at all.
except for very specific things.

this will end.

Stars; they're just old light.

Intolerable.

Bartleby(!) comes from Bone by Jeff Smith.
Sometimes, when I get bored, I draw with highlighters.

Random thoughts I've had while riding on public transportation last week:
"My soul is bi-polar."
"She's pretty as pornography."

Just picked up a new Moleskine blank and a Pentel GraphicGear 1000 .5 (which I'm probably too excited about...).

How How?

Fan art! Well, fan coloring. Matt Grigsby (http://grigsbyart.blogspot.com/) colored this sketchbook page of mine I posted way back on 5/30 under the post "and i'd still be stuck inside these bones...". I think it turned out pretty awesome! Go to his blog and check out his stuff! He can also be found here: http://www.robopocalypse.com/ (along with yours truly).

How how?
How have we come so far?
Unassuming, unnoticed.
Innocently, we waited for the right moments.
We came so close to failure,
Yet we reigned above the rest.
The success flowed around us
Like cool, sweet waters.
...And now it's only a vague memory.

I remember when I couldn't feel my legs and I thought I was going to die from the pain.

An idea I had for the upcoming Siren Nation show which is happening in October.
The theme is "The Journey"* and it is only for women.

If you read my blog and are interested in submitting work/or just learning about the shows email here: art@sirennation.org or go here: http://www.sirennation.org/

*Personal journeys or overall historical statements will take priority in "The Journey" theme.
