tonight's super vague wip:


(not comic-related -- getting some bang art done -- or rather, drawn and discarded)

Wow, turning off email notifs for comments has made me feel much better. I think in part because email is my space for "things I need to deal with", and so having all of the comments drop in there, unthreaded and without context, was very stressful.

Anyway, I didn't get a chance to take a pic for my daily wip post last night, so here's a belated picture:


It's socks that I tie-dyed for the Arts and Crafts New Year's Gift Exchange that I hosted at work today! The gift exchange was really fun -- I went and got us boba, and we took turns sharing the clues that we received and then getting the gifts. (Context: in mid-Dec I asked people to sign up with (a) what sorts of things they can make, and (b) an art prompt and a craft prompt. Then I made assignments. Everyone had to leave a clue to what their gift was.) It filled me with so much joy and love at the creativity and thoughtfulness of my coworkers. <3 <3 <3 (Someone painted a mug! Someone made magnets! Someone did an oil pastel of the roads that they've traveled! Someone made a really cool abstract painting using Illustrator!)

Anyway, I gave away the 6 best pairs to come out of this tie-dye batch, so I suppose that counts for:

Day 9

Commit an Act of Kindness. In your own space, share what you’ve done, talk about what you’ve done, or simply leave a comment in this post saying you did it.

I only had about 20 minutes to work on art today, but here's a bit:


I'm done-ish on 2 of the 3 backgrounds! :)

Tonight's wip:


(Sorry I'm being coy about what the comic is actually about. Although I'm ... 3 backgrounds from being done with the inking!)

anyone else feeling the lack of images on DW?

to address that, I'm going to try posting daily screenshots from whatever I'm working on. It'd be a good way to keep me on track, too. :)
