Creature Card #26 "Equidander Playport"

1/27/2012

0 Comments

 
I'm still trying to play catchup from yesterday. Yesterday had to be the busiest day of my year so far and will likely be the busiest day of the year for a long time coming. On a whole it was a good day. I just ended up with WAY too much planned. I had an insanely crazy dream and only got about 4 hours of sleep that night. Once we were all up I took  my daughter to school I secured my son with a great friend and headed of to my first appointment. I did an interview class in the morning, stopped by Blick art supplies in my spare moment between appointments and then met with my voc rehab counselor shortly afternoon. I had scheduled a surplus off auctions on both listia.com and Ebay to end all that evening, the week prior and hadn't considered the impact that would have on the day as well. I was trying to juggle the comments on the auctions and my appointments adding unnecessary stress to the interactions. Once I got home I had about a half an hour before the kids showed up, and then my best friend Annemarie came over to cook dinner with us. I was able to start my creature card in my interview class but I didn't get to work on it again until 10:30 pm that evening. There wasn't a lot of room for adding extra interesting details. I was worried I wouldn't be able to get it done. I was able to get it listed before the day ended but my blog and other posts fell after midnight. I think I got to bed somewhere around 2:00am this morning. Then today I had laundry to finish, and all the auctions to mail out. It wasn't a bad day yesterday. It was just exhausting. I had a wonderfully successful card auction that really surprised me, and ate the best home made apple pie ever. There were downs too but on a whole it was a good day.

Today's card is a great example of the difficulty I encounter when creating an unknown. When I don't know what I'm going to make it easily runs off the page before it should and leaves other areas in need of attention. I tried to add something to the other area but found it to be unsuccessful. I like it :)


Final bid 707 credits. This card now lives in New York. This creature is androgynous and is named "Equidander Playport"
