Still plugging away at C’thulhu there. He’s your daily doodle for yesterday, he just slept in. (Oh HO, see what I did there?)
Today I had some sushi that was very tasty. My experience with sushi in the past was bitter and spicy, and I was sick afterward. Today’s sushi was much better! I had a sampler in an attempt to broaden my range, and tried some eel, salmon, tuna and some kind of shrimp-thing.
This weekend was like walking through cement as it dried. Maybe because it’s getting hot again? I dunno. I felt very uninspired.
And still I drew. I feel like I’m growing as an artist.
Here’s today’s doodle:
Working on these drawings for Connecticon has been educational for me. I’m learning the time it takes me to continue working on a steady schedule. In the past, I drew in spurts. I’d draw a little, listen to a little music, do some dishes, draw some more, read an article, etc. I still tend to do little sprints of drawing activity rather than extended marathon sessions, but I’ve trimmed as much downtime as possible from the in-between. So that’s good.
I wonder if the lack of motivation was due somehow to Danielle’s absence the past day and a half. I’ve always done my best work with an audience. Am I that needy that I require an audience? Here’s hoping for some more autonomy in the future.

A quick explanation is in order. As I worked on today’s Doodle (commemorating the 50th birthday of the laser! Hooray science!) I learned the images I created for ConnectiCon 2009 have been lost! Aaaaaaaand… you guessed it. I lost them in the hard drive crash.
But every disaster is an opportunity in disguise! That means I have another chance to create these awesome mascots!
Unfortunately for you lot, it also means I’m gonna be super busy for the next couple days/weeks. The only doodles you’re gonna get are screenshots of these mascots while they’re in-progress.

This morning I find myself with a little spare time so I thought I’d provide an update on the C’thulhu image. I’d like to say it’s going exactly as I foresaw, but that would be a lie. I’m just making it up as I go, finding out what works and what doesn’t in SketchbookPro. Daily Doodle still to come today, just as soon as I figure out what to draw!
Also this is awesome. Maybe I’ll draw a doodle about that.

Wha… NO DOODLE YESTERDAY?!?!?! Sal IS a failure! No wonder his parents are ashamed of him and women shun him! No wonder children weep as he passes by and plants wither! He should crawl on his belly through ashes and eat garbage! SHAME! SHAME!
Lots of things are going on this week… no drama, just a long list of tasks and trips. There wont be a daily Doodle for about a week as I go about my bid-ness.
I figured I should let you know, so you can commence the wailing and gnashing of teeth. Fear not, loyal reader, I will return with plenty of images and updates.
In the meantime, here’s where I’m at with Cthulu so far:
And Harry and Ron versus the Locket:
