Well, it seems it's been a while since my last post. It's been a very busy autumn. Productive in many ways. I've been doing a lot of researching, drawing, experimenting, practicing, trying out different techniques and styles. Clearly, still trying to figure it out.
My goal is to one day feel settled and satisfied with a style. I think I just want to start feeling that there's a little more "smooth sailing" with my drawing process. That I feel a bit more settled in and comfortable with what I'm doing, I guess. Though, hopefully, you don't stop getting better!
Here's are a couple short Diary Comics that I did in the summer/fall. It was really fun to do these. I didn't worry too much about drawing everything perfectly which was quite freeing. And it was cool to write about my son, who definitely got a kick out of these. In a way, these two stories are a good "day in the life." When I'm not drawing, or procrastinating.
