On Writing Graphic Novels

Of all the categories of people you would think would be easy to find online wouldn’t you think it would be graphic novel writers? I mean come on, people!
Maybe I should explain. I am a member of a website called Zhura.com (I wrote about them here if you want an overview) and this website is [...]

NAPP Tour Charlotte NC 08

I made it out alive! If you were following my Tweets yesterday you already know that I didn’t remember where I parked my car after twenty minutes of walking to the convention center. Yes, I said twenty minutes.
The conference was great it was taught by Dave Cross master of some of the coolest things I’ve [...]

Excitedness!

I went on an interview today and guess what? I am now a teacher at a local community college! Of course that’s not as impressive as it could be but it is one step closer to my ultimate goal of teaching at a university (trust me, the experience counts). I’m going to be teaching digital [...]

Dvorak Rocks, PS Brushes and Graphics Inquiries

Last night I got the idea to Last.fm Vivaldi and I discovered something–Dvorak rocks. Allow me to explain why Dvorak would rock when I Lasted Vivaldi. For those of you who have never used Last.fm the reason I like it so much is that it makes it so much easier to discover new music. When [...]

I’m so excited about this. You can buy this picture I painted below on my gallery at my very own website. http://worldgirl84.jimdo.com

Ghost Ship

I love this picture! It is very rare that I say that (publicly) about my own work but in this case I got the ship down perfectly. It took an hour just for the ship to come to life and I didn’t think I would get it to look that much like what I had in my [...]

Skype Me!

You meet some interesting people on Skype. Literally the longest conversation I have eve had about hair with a guy happened last night with someone from India who is studying here in the States. Apparently I’m very good about giving hair advice and he said if he did get his hair straightened he would tell [...]

Asteroid

I finished Asteroid! I meant this one to be based on the old Asteroid video game. The majority of the elements were painted and for the controls I used some photographic elements because I wanted the actual spaceship to have some realism about it. I thought it would be fun to see what it would look [...]

The Castle Picture…The Saga Continues

I worked on it again yesterday for another hour and a half only half as long as the day I started it. The good news is the castle wasn’t as hard to do as I thought it would be and it is just about as close to what was in my head as I could [...]

Nothing to do? What’s that?

Yesterday a phenomena (or phenomenon?) happened to me. I had nothing to do! Nothing to do, nothing to think about and nothing to worry about. This worried me. I always have something to worry about so this made me feel lost which made me worry about not being worried.
This is a problem.
So I took charge [...]
