two Doodles and a short rant
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.
