I wanted to write a little something about what I shared with an acquaintance. I'll call her Sally. Well, Sally and I are not exactly acquaintances that just met, but we're also not exactly friends. We worked together many, many years ago and kept in contact through Facebook. There's nothing more than the usual interaction within the posts and photos. Sometimes, we communicate through the chat. Usually just to touch up on something we may have read in the news feed.
Well recently she wrote me just to ask...

Computer program is still down so no work on Jack & Justine. I have the feeling my goal of finishing them before the end of the month is simply not going to be met. BUT, that does not mean I am without "work". LOL. For New Year's Eve we dressed up my king in a polo (my partner's choice of attire). For me, it needed a little "something" and I simply could not just let it go. I decided to whip up a bow tie. It was just a last minute thing. I didn't think I could do it because I still had to get myself...

A quick catch-up on the schedule:
my partner had been on vacation so we steered away from the schedule a little
bit. But, so far our scheduled mornings are working out great. It’s the afternoons and early evenings that we’re
still “as it goes” with. I don’t mind,
but I need to cut out a block of time to get my own work done. Right now, I’m just trying to squeeze work in
when I ca...

My partner's on vacation this week so it's going to be a busier than usual one, working at home and running errands. Luckily, I was able to sit and get some background elements together just to see what they would look like. I'm somewhat satisfied with how it's coming along. I like having Jack the same height as the flower in the picture. I have to see how Justine looks in it because she will be taller than him and I don't know if she'll look too tall next to the flowers. If that happens I may have to shrink Jack...

Sadly, this weekend update is a very short one. I got a little caught up working on some home projects and I didn't get to do more coloring on Jack & Justine. Although I started working on their shading and other details, I didn't work much on their backgrounds. But, just because I didn't sit to work in a way that I have something to show for it, it doesn't mean my mind wasn't working on them.

After hours of trying out different body parts on Jack & Justine, I ended up using the same ones I shared with you before. At the moment, I am not too worried about the arms because the project consists of different images in which the arms will be in different positions. I settled on some colors, but I'm not sure if I'll be keeping them. I have to add shading and details to the images so once I do that, I can...

On my Weekend Update post I mentioned a new graphic design project I wanted to work on. I was finally able to put my characters together. It gave me a little bit of work trying to find clothing I liked for the male character, but so far this is what I have. I'm not really quite sure if this is going to be the end result. I'm also not quite sure about the colors I'll be using. But I really like the...

So I've been working with the schedule and it's actually been working out pretty well. Of course, there are days when I have to go out to run an errand or go to an appointment so I can't really stick to the schedule. When that happens what I do is simply switch that day I went out with that week's Saturday.

I created a vision board this year. A vision board is basically a collage of images that represents the kind of life you want. The collage is used as a tool to help you clarify the goals you feel you need to achieve this life. The main thing on my vision board, the thing that I feel I would achieve if I work on the other smaller ones, is Inner Harmony. There are a couple of material things on my board, like a car (tell me what professional pedestrian doesn't want one), but there are things I want to do like make...

I wanted to share with you the last graphic design that I made. It was originally supposed to be a Christmas gift. I wanted something with robots because the recipient just LOVES robots. At first I wanted to go with a retro classic looking robot like this one:
(get this greeting or other gifts from Zazzle!)
But, I wanted the design to be a simple design because I wasn't sure what the final product was going...

Ok. This is it. One more go at this. I did try, but there are so many things that get in the way. I think mostly it was time. Like I just had a hard time fitting it in. I am not the busiest person in the world, mind you. I just always found others things to do. Be it for the house or for my family. I'm not complaining, I just...I wished I had more for ME. ...
