Did a little belated spring-cleaning with my Gallery. Created some Folders and moved a bunch of stuff to my Scrapbook so that as the quality of my pieces improve, I gradually shuffle out the more mediocre work and replace it with stuff I really like.

Leaving for a three-week job/trip this weekend, so it will be interesting to see what kind of art happens or doesn't happen in that time. I'm enjoying my little comic/storyboard characters, but am hesitant to expand upon the series for fear that it will become trite. The two I've done so far have been the product of some real, raw emotion, so while I have some ideas for new ones I can't decide whether to pursue them just yet or wait until I'm really feeling it.

I still have to upload that portrait I did at the same time as "Jacaranda." I honestly haven't looked at it since then-- my lack of enthusiasm probably reflects its quality. I want to take another stab at drawing that model and create a piece I'm more satisfied with, but I'll try to post it anyway within the next few days just to give you an idea.

Anyway that's about it. I'm off to get icecream and not work on my research paper.

***UPDATE***

Well I saved tonight and posted "Equally Skilled," the aforementioned piece done around the same time as "Jacaranda" I'd still like to take another stab at this model but I'm actually feeling better about it after touch-ups than I was at first. w00t.
