yo! Lazy is good!

I'm mega lazy lately. I'm working on this comic book and my original assignment was to design two characters, I finished 2 days ahead of schedule. Now, since some people quit, I have to make up for their characters, not to mention the slack of others, yet I have to pencil, ink and color the thing. Now I have 11 characters to draw, I've only done 4. 3 of which are on profile here. Honestly, I just don't think I want to do it anymore lol. I have another comic book opportunity with a friend and the story is very solid and unique and I get more creative control. Funny thing is, I'm not getting paid for any of it. :)

Anyways, sorry to rant. No new drawings, really. Nothing I want to display anyways!

I've been asked to draw a T-shirt design of "a boy made of peanut butter and fluff." I know, I know! I'm not sure what to draw but I've got a boy covered in peanut butter with pillows strapped to him and marsh mellows scattered on the ground. Only thing I could think of!

Peace!

Hey hey! Awesome pictures! Lol just came here from photo-lucidity, if you haven't already read the comment I left on your profile then urm . . . read it! Tehe! ^^ I bet you cant guess who I am! :D

Hey :) It would be hard not to guess your identity right =D
I like your art, and the fact you draw and take pictures =D
I think most of the people on photo-lucidity came from Fac, or at least I did (via the button on the front page)
Yay!

Yeah lol same But PL is fairly new so I think its god that people from FAC are joining it. Plus its interesting to see some peoples photographs! Yeah I'm an all rounder really, not afraid to try something new I guess. . .

Pegasusmon, Schtrall der Hophnon!
Do ya like Fullmetal Alchemist? If so, then my gallery has the thing that revigorates the mind, a little.

*slaped on head by sis* - Stop promoting yourself! Geez we're not on Youtube, you know! | - Gomenasai, Nicko!

Anyways, wanna see and on which one you like, could comment? I suggest this now, before they get to many... ;)

Thanks for the comment on my Wyld picture! I'll actually take your advice to heart and probably re-submit the drawing.

I actually thought I cropped it well enough to have even white spacing but since the axe was sticking out so far I think it confused my program!

I'll try and fix it :)

If I were you, I'd move into the graphic design field then. You can use photography as well as drawing and manipulating your work with computers.

I'm majoring in Illustration with a concentration in graphic design.

The thing about jobs is this:

They CAN be hard to find. But if you are good enough, you'll be surprised at how quickly the doors can open to you. The reason being is that most graphic designers simply .... suck!

Not just in their talents, but they overcharge, rip people off and generally give us all a bad name. Plus, most of them aren't that great to begin with. So I can't help but laugh at some of these people.

There was a guy that opened up a pub here locally, hired an artist for a weekly salary of 250 bucks to get a few paintings completed. 2 months went by and the only thing the guy completed on time was a shootty drawing of a river way in Ireland (Since its an Irish pub). So the owner stopped payment to the guy, the guy came in doging about how the owner stopped payment, and wondered why.

Needless to say the owner got very angry and threw the guy out of his pub. Hired a true professional (one of my professors) who charged him a flat fee of 60 bucks a painting and completed it in two weeks. Done.

So you see, its these A-holes we have to deal with. Problem is, most clients don't know they are being ripped off until its too late, then they are afraid to hire someone else for fear of it happening all over again.

But once you get in and start doing your thing, you'll build a steady client base. That, and there are plenty of job openings, if your portfolio is good enough, anyone will hire you.

My advice to you is this: Do what you love, for a living. If that is art and photography, then do it. No questions asked. TRUST ME. I used to be stuck in a situation doing something I thought I liked, something that everyone said I should do and convinced me that I liked enough to pursue. Discovered that I hated it and when I finally started doing what I love, all these doors opened for me and schooling became easy for me. I make straight A's without even trying, really. My home work doesn't seem like homework at all.

Not to say that an art degree is a cop-out degree, cause its not. It takes a special person to succeed at it. You and I are probably the best artists we know, am I right?

I'm not talking about online or anything, cause this is a common place to connect with other artists, but that being said, we are a rare breed.

We are like reptiles, we get better with age, stronger. Other people are mere mammals, they peak and get weaker.

The longer you draw, the better you become, no matter the age. If you, say, landscape, you eventually peak and then get weaker at it, then what? Retire? Same with just about any job out there. Except art.

Anyways, sorry this is so long, but the gist of the story is, do what you love doing, no matter what anyone says. :)

Its the only way to truly be happy.

wow your pictures are awesome! Photography is all about framing out a single moment in life and completely capturing it, no matter the subject matter.

You've done an excellent job. I think you have a natural talent for photography. I can't imagine the patience you must have had to capture the gecko and bee, let alone the rare opportunity in the frozen rose. Not only is it frozen (which obviously isn't the time of year for frost like that since the rose has bloomed) but its a vibrant yellow which compliments the background completely.

Well done!

Thanks! ^^
