My brain is WEIRD. Whenever I dream (may it be a nightmare or a good dream), there's always these overly complex plots with character development going on. For instance, yesterday, I had two really elaborate dreams. In the first, I was in the 1920's in a big steampunk-ish city. A songstress had hired me to protect her because a dangerous secret admirer was on the loose. So I was a weird bodyguard/superhero called "Mysteria" that had a purple batman-esque suit. The admirer turned out to be my brother. It was weird.
The second dream I had started in a circus. Two brothers worked there (and they had a serious Alphonse and Ed from Fullmetal Alchemist feel). The circus master decided it was time for the boys to go to school since they were super smart (which pissed off another apprentice that wanted schooling as well), so the brothers got dropped off at this weird academy in a steampunk-ish city (yet again). They make friends with a gloomy girl and a fun-loving boy, who turned out to be a princess in disguise. The brothers ended using their super awesome circus skills and epic smarts to save the princess from being wed to a an epic, sword-gun-canon-thing wielding dark knight.
I'm not really sure what these dreams mean, aside from maybe i'm reading too many comics.
I picked up contracts again. Why? Because I miss working on children's books. My drawing stuff is weird. On one side, i've got my morbid and strange printed comics. On another, i've got my watercolored children illustrations. On another again, I have Namesake, that isn't quite happy or quite creepy. It's like i've got a full range of very different things to draw.
I LOVE IT.
For some reason, the things I love always seem to be either youth literature, or strange, or both. Creepy things can come up in kid's stuff though. Kids like to be scared.
Sketch of a girl and a wolf for said kids drawings. I love the loop in her hair.
