comic book peeks...

so i made a few goals on my birthday and i am already getting to work on that list. here's (#11) the comic book i was working on over the weekend (in between painting & rva jobs, of course!). lot of fun to draw and make up random little stories.... 

i like little in between projects... for example, things i can make while we're watching project runway & dexter. mhmm. what fun projects help you relax? 

 

next up on my goals list must be the Children's book. it's already written & needs cute illustrations. i can't wait to show you... the story is so cute.  XO.e

I sew while watching 30 Rock over Netflix. and when sewing isn't relaxing, i like to make lists of goals or and doodle in my planner.

um, you're amazing! i always wanted to make my own comic book or publish an actual book. perhaps it'll be on the list for next year.

i put pictures in my inspiration book to relax. like when i want something crafty, but don't want to drag everything out. it's simple and fun and relaxing. :)

thanks so much!
kinzie, i use black felt tip pens and uniball pens (bold). i agree that it's tricky to find good pens and it all depends on the type of paper you like to use too! when you find a good one, buy a bunch! XOXO.
