Life and Learning

Not much of an art post, but related.

The last couple of weeks have be Cray- Zeeee. And its taught me a couple things:

Patience with computers can be very hard but the more you learn about them the easier it gets.

Working in a place you find uncomfortable with a not so great landlord is very distracting.


More specifically my computer broke again. And at first it looked really bad which was terrifying as no computer makes it a bit hard for me to earn a living. It ended up being only that I lost my, FLUFFY, main hard drive (but hardly any work) and I have to get some memory replaced (again). The new hard drive is named Crookshanks. During and since then I've been putting a lot more effort into learning how my computer works and how to fix it myself so I don't have to waste time getting help diagnosing problems. It's been really difficult for me to comprehend but I am noticing that the more I know the faster my computer is out of commission when it does break down.

Also I signed my lease on my new place. No more basement and florescent lights in a month or so. It's closer to public transit as well, which means its easier to meet with clients. Gonna miss my roomies though.

This all means, that the bustle of moving is gonna keep me busy in the next month and half. And right in the middle of all of that, my little sister is coming to visit from Germany. I haven't seen her in almost two years! I've missed her so much. I'll be going to see her in Missouri and Illinois. But I will try to get some sketching in between all the car/bus time. (Really wish I didn't get motion sick)


In art news..

I'm just finishing up that Kreo project now, which I will post whenever I hear of it getting put online.

And work continues at Language Sprout. Just vocabulary illustrations right now. Nothing too exciting, but honestly I like the relaxation of its simpleness with all the other stress happening.

I have a fun little sketch from Independence Day I might post soon if I find the time to scan it.

Really wishing I had more time for some new video games and to work on my personal illustration I posted about last. Maybe the time will surface sometime in September.

SO MUCH TEXT. I'M DONE WRITING NOW.
