Some folk attempt to write a novel this month, I'm told. However, this is the month where I draw a Little Something Daily instead. It's not likely to make it into my Dev'Art pages as it's more about the exercise than the result. But ya never can tell, right?
There be insects about. Shepherded a weta from the flat the other day. The slug squadron appears to have momentarily abated. Monarch Caterpillars are devouring my rather weedy looking swan-plants. Hooray!
Been reading a lot too. Mostly crime novels, it seems.
It's like cake, without the weightgain! I devour on average half a book a night. (the whole book if I'm really baaaad.)
By the way. Rules for "Little Something Daily" - pick up a pen or pencil, and draw/doodle/scratch/scribble something. It might take one minute, 15 minutes, half an hour... etc.
It's not about being perfect either. It's about doing. (And, it can be a lot quicker than 2500 words a day ;D ) Gogogo.
Also, thankyou, o givers of Llamanation!
I feel like one of the Llamanati now...

What I've been up to.
So there's a project called "100 days", which means dedicating the time to do something each day for a hundred days (usually artistic). And I've been illustrating a character of mine called "The VSG" - some images of which, I'll post here. :)
Some of you may recognise it as the little chap from my Weurdle Waucrack drawings - in truth, Weurdle Waucrack is just another branch to what it gets up to in its spare time... ;D Hope you like them.

I blink and...
Next thing I know, several months have snuck by! How can something of such reasonable size be so stealthy?
Recent activities involved partaking in a weekend workshop on digital illustration. I can definitly see the difference it has made between my previous attempt at digital painting, and the new one. Less lumpy for starters!
Next week I look forward to trying my hand at sculpting - lordy knows how I'll fare, but if I deem it a worthy attempt, will post that here too.
Tidying Stuffs!
Alright, the month's challenge is over, so going to shift some of the pieces about and delete the scrappiest :)
I've been good at persisting with the doing something daily, since then, so let's see if I can stick to it, eh? :D
Nearly there!
28 days gone, two more left to go, and then I will have completed my task to do some drawing/painting wotnots, every day this month!
And then I'll go and clean out the Scrapbook section, as it's probably fuller than my Gallery now!
What have I gotten out of the exercise?
Well, if the last time was discovering how much I liked dip-pen and ink, this time was a lot about trying to get to grips with painting "digitally".
And now... SLEEP. It's hideously early in my morning.
