Black and white




Hiya peeps! I'm back from Ottawa. It was fun. I saw my family and some friends and got some new boots (and not a moment too soon. My current boots were losing their soles!) So all in all, a good weekend.

Seems this week is going to be busy. I work two evenings, get to see people on the other evenings, need to go to the dentist on Thursday morning and i'm somewhat behind on Namesake pages, so I need to draw a LOT this upcoming weekend, i'm hoping to do at least 4 pages. So, i'm going to have a pretty busy, but satisfying, week. I've been meaning to see people for a while. And I REALLY need to go to the dentist. And yeah, I got stuff I gotta do. I guess it's always like that heh? It's real quiet for a while and suddenly, busy!

Despite the incredible upcoming busy, I feel a lot better. I think this type of busy is the good type. The one that makes me feel happy at the end of the day. So i'm getting better.

Also, outside, it's perfect snow to make a fort and a snowball fight. It makes me want to declare war on my neighbors or something. During this type of weather, I wish I was 10 again. And then i'd make a snow dragon.

Too bad I don't have a back yard here in Montréal. My parents have a huge back yard and I didn't even think of challenging my brothers to combat. What was I thinking?

Oh, for those who wonder, the characters in the drawing aren't from anything. Sometimes, I like to just invent random characters. They kinda remind me of the Endless in "Sandman" (I blame you for that,[livejournal.com profile] asatira ).

Going to the dentist is always a fun trip. c__c I hope it goes well for you!

A snow dragon sounds AWESOME. *_*

It would be mighty. Until it melted anyways.

I love the drawing! It's very yin/yang kinda!

Snow dragon would be awesome.

Glad you are feeling more refreshed. Sometimes a little mini vacation can do that to a person.

Yeah, I think I just needed to set my head back into place.

Yep, sometimes our heads need that...

It's exciting to have a lot going on! If there wasn't so much ice, I would love to play in the snow too! When I was younger, I would fill water bottles with food coloring and make snow art! I haven't done that in so long!

Awwww. Too bad we can't all take a snow day together.

An epic snowball battle would most likely ensue.

Dammit, it's like 80 degrees here. I want my snow back.

Once again, I love the smooth inking. And the girl's wispy-ness. :D

Wispy is always fun to draw. I LOVE it.

Meh, have fun at the dentist. >_>;;

Shiny drawing is shiny! Your inking, omg. I still want to read Sandman but I am not sure where to start...

[identity profile] secondlina.livejournal.com 2011-02-08 03:53 pm (UTC)(link)
I suggest book 1. The story itself is really chronological. Read book 1 to 10, thent he sort extra stories. Otherwise, you miss little bits and pieces.

Ooh, really? For some reason I have just...never seen the first book anywhere. It just really confuses me. ^^;
