Family things...

Sorry for the brief interruption of posts this week everyone, I had a family member that was rushed to the ICU and spent most of the week there. They are out, all is much better and things should be returning to normal here soon.

Thank you for your patience!

There are times...

...when you just cannot concentrate enough to create

...when you must push through those things in order to begin creating once again

...when inspiration comes once frustration settles down

It's been a tough week. We've all been there. It appears thought the storm clouds have now passed, and from some of the bleakest moments this past week, all of a sudden ideas just came flooding into the ol' brainpan.  I'm looking forward to this coming week to get them out onto the digital paper.


Oh, and a shout out to Joshua Kurz for his new blog. Click on the link in the left column there with the other artists and give him a shout out too!

Hoodalolly!

Throw pillows

For fun, in celebrating the latest Scene Additions set 8: Rugs, hides & Books, I decided to make a few thank you decorative items as freebies and will put them on here for folks to grab if they so choose.

First up: "Muthur" pillow...no self respecting orc cave doesn't have a commemorative pillow of when their mom said no to desert after the midnight raid and was met with three arrows to the heart.

Rugs and Floor covering

I've always enjoyed drawing fabric - the folds, the way lights and darks meet and create triangular patterns. This latest scene additions set takes advantage of that fondness to create some rugs. So far, I've created close to 40 variations of runners, rugs, and animal hide floor covering.

Now mind you, it is yet to be seen how well this will be received, but it sure is fun making it.
