The tedium of pet portraits has been broken up by some surprising updates - my sister sent me a page of a book that was burned in our library fire to draw on for a fund raiser for a new library, and through my friend's mother a relatively popular potter in the area has given me five baked plates to make designs on and plans to have them sold!!! I love getting new and unfamiliar formats to work on for new art (though I am completely lazy in doing it myself >> ), and it sparks my imagination . I'm going to draw a fish on the burnt library book page, and I've got all sorts of ideas for these plates. And this morning I was depressed... huh. *supposed to be connected to the art update, but now just sort of feels disjointed*

...I'm not really that professional, am I? *glances around guiltily*

Speaking of drawing, I'll probably be on Ustream sometime tonight.
