I like the term 'work in progress'. Perhaps I like it a bit too much because it can be used as a general term that essentially means 'work that isn't finished but I do intend to finish it...'. Of course nowhere is it stipulated exactly when... which is where my procrastinatorial tendencies come out.
Well here's a quick shot of WIPs that I actually worked on today... the kitten is close to completion and the other two are ready for ink (which will hopefully arrive tomorrow with my Blick's order).
So after a few weeks of complete and utter inefficiency it seems that I might be back in the swing of things. Finishing older works as well as a couple of new ones are my priorities for the next month or so.
I also have another piece that I'm excited to show you - I had to keep it under wraps (quite literally) up to this point as it was a Christmas gift. Due to Circumstances I decided to fall back on satisfying two of Neil Gaiman's three rules... I'm easy to get along with and my work is good, but in this instance it wasn't on time.
Speaking of which, if you have not seen Neil Gaiman's commencement speech from 2012 you absolutely should watch it!
To be fair, this piece was a gift for the in-laws and working on it covertly
while they were visiting over the holidays was just too difficult. They are cool with it being finished in the next couple of weeks, so I'll post a
WIP image of that one here very soon.
Happy New Year and cheers to all! Here's to getting a good start to the year!
