2009 general work. a recurring 'theme' i see in my art, is that i rotate subjects. mostly from human, to furry, back to human again, back to furry, etc etc. i go through phases where sometimes i just want to draw animal people. and then i get sick of it, i guess, or i get ideas for 'real paintings' and get back to drawing more traditional things.

also summertime seems to make me want to draw more colorful, for some reason. strange. i must have seasonal affect-your-drawings syndrome.


i also just finished a painting that i can't remember where i saw it in my head before. it must have been one of those things that comes up when i'm falling asleep. i certainly know i didn't see it in a dream.
i did see, the other day, in a nap, my comic. it was a [comic-related] biblical story, where horace was playing a savior named mathuiyas, and keesha was playing a lame/blind homeless girl named kiesha [who in my brain-character-logic is the 'biblical' origin for her name]. the interesting thing is that i think i dreamed it in comic format.

( the txt file i wrote down groggily after i woke up -- )

it was in black and white and had still frames instead of moving. actually, i think most of my dreams are in still frames, now that i think of it. i am not a moving pictures kind of person. anyway, it was weird because most of the time i dream in color [supposedly unlike the rest of humanity. i know for a fact that i do because it's been an integral part of the story and details of many, many dreams i've had]. and i don't believe i have dreamt much about my characters before, either. i used to get jealous of other people who were so wrapped up in their chars that they would dream about them. now that i've distanced myself from that, i find myself dreaming about them.
