It's my blog, and I'll walltext if I want to.
Today I don't want to. Finished the inks & tones on Merrick, the elephant man portrait, and am quite happy with it. Putting it in the pile to make prints from. Have my buddha / owl piece out, and did some touchup on tones today. It's ready to go, too. Nearly done with 'Chirality', a piece that's been some eight years in development, one terrible sketch & rendition after another. But I got it right, this time. I'm proud of it. Not a thing I say often, if at all.
It's a time for completing work & clearing the desk. I'm taking time off work to build the art pile. Took a shot in the teeth with a cutting board today, so that's yet another injury at this gig. So far I've had my scalp split open, the back of my drawing hand seared, and my bottom lip split & bruised. I associate this job almost entirely with physical endurance & weariness leading to accidents. The raise I'm due in May better be significant. The hospital's already handed me off to the bill collectors: before sending me a bill.
Otherwise, re-reading scripts. Doing thumbnails. Thinking about Promiseland. Working slowly on tarot.
Reading the christ outta comic books. My reading list for March has turned into a motherfucker. In lieu of new posts I just revise & add to the 'Wuxtry' list. Keeps things simpler, and makes me feel less like a blogosaurus wanx. Though after a while I'm not sure what to say, or who I'm talking to. The eternal wangst of the internet addict...
