Art is back on!

[clevermanka]

Thanks so much to hdsqrl whose comment yesterday inspired me to do one more search for workable cupids and suddenly I was inspired by an image I'd already found and I found an old selfie pic to fit it (thank god for two different 365-day selfie projects). I cut out the focus pieces (god, cutting out RayK's hair is always such a hassle), then picked out, cut out, and glued down the texture base materials last night. Tonight is paint, paint texturing, and possibly more gluing-shit-down. Wednesday I probably won't get to work on it, so finishing touches need to be done Thursday night so I can take it downtown Friday afternoon to get scanned for uploading on Saturday.



I'm trying hard not to think about the fact that this weekend was the solstice so now the days are getting shorter and it's just all downhill from here.

Today's Tumblr is Tuesday, June 23: Snails.

Whoo-hoo! And now "Moses supposes his roses have noses, but Moses supposes erroneously" is going to be my afternoon earworm. So thanks for that!

I'm EXCITED for this art!

Also, I have mixed feelings about the solstice. I'm already over the summer weather but OH GOD Boston winter.

Oh my god this piece is gonna be SO GREAT.

I sometimes wish I shipped Fraser/RayV because Vecchio's face is just the best and I have just, so many feels for that character. Just none of the feels lean in the romantic direction in regards to him and Fraser. *sigh* But someday I'll get a dSSS request for a Vecchio portrait and I will love it so much.

Uhmmmmm maybe I will get my ass in gear and do dSSS again this year just so I can request that because YES.

The solstice may have passed, but it will still be a long while before the days get significantly shortened. Lots of good stuff to come. Don't you have a con soon? :)

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

YES! I am going to Con*Strict in July and meeting splix!

[gentlespirit.livejournal.com]
