Updates and such...

I have spent this weekend making my site xHTML compliant, re-arranging pages to make it more readable, adding more images etc.. Tomorrow I will be working on windharps.net, the client has made a lot of big decisions in the last few weeks on how he wants his marketing to go. We're refocussing on selling the kits online and drawing attn to Steve's new designs. It's gonna be something else. He's also having a month long gallery show at the Croswell this April featuring the debut of his historical collection!



On a non art note, I've been training the husky's using the "Perfect Dog" program you may have seen on one of those late night infomercials. They're extremely difficult and stubborn, but they're really catching on. We're only having a problem when they're around distractions.



Wytheria is getting a complete overhaul very very soon. You can read details about it up and coming in Wytheria's new blog. Wytheria.blogspot.com Jacqui Cameo and I will all be submitting to that.

Anyhow, on the art front, let's talk about contests. Contests are a great way to get your work seen. Even if you don't win these contests you will get exposure. I personally have gotten quite a few commissions this way. So if you're an artist looking for some popularity or paid work, entering contests is a nice way to do this. And of course, if yo u win them, there might be a good prize involved.

Have a good one! :)

P.S. I miss fallout3 and my laptop, they should be home tomorrow by 4:30 according to fedex..

What's been taking you so long!?!?!

Alright I sadly do not have a lot of progress to report on my WIP of Shylock, I've tried a few different tattoo designs but have hated all of them. Anyone know some awesome places for design ideas, plz let me know! Tattoo art is not my forté. He has power over pestilence so that should somehow be incorporated. I have decided on a small shadow badge over his left pec and three claw marks symbolizing his loyalty to Tsunami, on his shoulder. I'll keep working on it.





Here's a random battle enemy for Wytheria. I realise the perspective is a little off, but I still am amused.


I've also been working on one of those 25 expression sheets. Ideally I'd like to do one for all of my characters, but this is taking some time! And this guy isn't even my character!?!?! This is Alisa's Bob Russel, a well intentioned if occasionally "out of his league" politician.





What's been taking up the bulk of my time (and why I haven't gotten anywhere on these projects) is Windharps.net It may not look as amazing as it could, but I've added a blog there, that uses rss to syndicate to the site, as well as to facebook! I've been updating the blog. I tried to make a wiki page but that failed as it got deleted because I accidentally submitted it before it was done, rather than previewing. Maybe later I'll have the energy to do it again, but I spent forever and lost it all. I'm pretty irked with Wiki. We're featuring a new upcoming exhibition of some really awesome harps. I have seen them in person and they look wonderful! It's of course a secret until they're revealed at the Croswell Opera House in Adrian Michigan for Steve Cameron's solo exhibition!!! (All of the month of March) So go there, but make sure you buy your harps through the website ;)

This is it for this blog, I promise these will be better thought out and written in later posts! I'm kind of overwhelmed with all of this windharps stuff and learning about how amazing RSS is! Now if only Myspace would let you import blogs... stupid Myspace... -.-

:) As always, I love critques on my art! post your thoughts!
