Here is today's card. I had another migraine today. I really need to work on getting more sleep at the right time of day. I was able to get this card done, but didn't start tell late and it was hard to focus through the pain. I felt like this little guy was dancing in my temples.
I have great news! Two of my cards were accepted to be featured on Listia.com. This means they will have the opportunity to be seen by many more people! I am looking forward to seeing what the added visibility will achieve. Final Bid 279 credits. This card is going to Florida! First one there so far :) The Sock Monster Something steels my sock at night, I know not where it goes. For when I wake by morning's light, I see my right foot toes. I hear him sneak and creep around, as I go to sleep. I feel him pull and tug my sock and: swear I hear a BEEP! But as I think more clearly now, a beep is not the sound. In fact I am quite certain, of where my sock is bound. For it was not a Beep I heard. but one gigantic....... BURP!!!! Feb 3rd, 2012 at 9:42:00 PM PST by choxter

I found out last night as I was falling asleep that my first Creature Support card sold! What a wonderful way to fall asleep. Then I woke up with a great song in my head. Here is a link to the youtube video for the song. I worked on my newest card after taking my daughter to school. I was really confronted by the decreased size. Trying to figure out what I could fit on it. It will be a challenge to get a whole creature on one, so I thought I'd just start with a portrait to get the feel of things. This might be the first time I've drawn on Smooth Bristol paper. WOW. I love it! It blends so smoothly. You can really see it in the mild haze I added behind the face. Getting that subtle of a blend would be very difficult with other paper types.
Once I got it done I realized I had missed a call and checked my voicemail. It was from one of the apartment complex's in Newport that I applied to. They are going to have an opening in March and they wanted to start the process of getting me verified! I'm so happy. I need to move very badly. My rent is just too much here. I won't quite cut it in half but I'll get close :) Today wasn't all sunshine and roses, but then that's life. One of my favorite auctions I just won from listia arrived in pieces. Not due to the fault of the shipper but the mistreatment from the postal service. It is hard to travel so far when your made of glass. Fortunately the seller has another of the piece that broke and we are going to try to get it here again... so there is still hope! Ah hope, such a very important thing. I wonder how to draw it? Final bid 754 credits. Won by the winner of the first card #1! |
When searching for a creature use the specific name or number only for best results.
