monsoon season
Once again today I have no sewing/costume progress to show you. I have been embroidering like mad but there’s nothing to show for it right now. I DID finish the front panel, which means I’m over halfway done. I finally counted and I have 10 panels – and I’m on panel 7 now. I’m on track to be done with…

the daily digest
Well I did not accomplish most of my goals from last week because instead of doing other stuff over the holiday weekend and saving embroidery for weekdays, I embroidered all weekend. But let’s rewind first. It took me longer to hem this than I expected. Why did I hem it now? I did let it hang to see if it…

all for freedom & for pleasure
Well we are over here thawing out after the snow. When I posted Wednesday I talked about how much snow we’d gotten on Monday – well we got WAY MORE on wednesday! It ended up being a record – most snow we’ve had in something like 53 years?? Crazy! The backyard Wednesday night: The cove Thursday morning: So yeah Chase…

white out
It’s Monday again… it’s snowing with a wind chill of NEGATIVE 3 WTF… but I’m in a good mood because… WE GOT OUR VACCINES SATURDAY NIGHT!! Yes it’s just the first of two but I’m SO EXCITED and relieved to have this shot. Obviously we are not in any of the groups currently getting vaccines – we aren’t healthcare workers/first…

mini muffin monday morning
I got a pack of mini muffins at the grocery saturday to have for breakfast the rest of the week. This morning I wasn’t thinking and brought the entire tray up to my work from home office (instead of bringing 1 or 2). They’re tempting me to eat more than I should. Anyway I actually have some sewing stuff to…

all the things
I’ve basically got 2 weeks worth of stuff to post today. So hold onto your butts, it’s going to be a long post! Let’s separate this into topics. 1. Las Vegas So last week was Vegas for work. I didn’t think I was going to have to do this show again but it got pulled together kinda at the last…

a gigantic post
Warning you now, I have a ton of photos today. Going to start with probably the least interesting thing. Sims screencaps. And they’re not even screencaps. I literally just took photos of my monitor, because I’m lazy. It never fails that anytime I’m in the final crunch of finishing stuff before a deadline, my brain is like, “Ok, let’s play…

A giant art post
Yes it’s a huge art dump. Well huge by today’s standards, not so much by like… me circa 2001 standards. First up is a Amidala picture I’ve been working on for a while… I got bored after I finished the face so I’d do just a little bit each day because I didn’t really feel like doing the rest LOL…

some stuff
They can’t all be good titles ok? I drew Diana. just a time waster. I ended up liking just the lineart better than the finished thing so I’m glad I took a screencap of it. I did a little more than that but didn’t like it so I’m leaving it like that one. In other news a couple of weeks…

Glinda!
So mom and I have been working on a simplified version of Glinda’s “Popular” dress from Wicked. I keep saying it’s a theater project, but it’s not really for a play – but it’s for a theater related project. Anyway, we went a few weeks ago and picked out fabric, and mom has been working on the skirt. I’m in…

Various art and stuff
Ok really there’s no “and stuff”… it’s just art. But the title seemed too short. First up is this Edith sketch from a month ago. I started colouring a while back but I got bored and haven’t finished it. Don’t know if I will so I thought I’d go ahead and upload it. Maybe I’ll at least finish her hand,…

Is it Disney time yet???
So Friday and I had my “re-do” of my doctor’s appointment from earlier in the year – the one I had the panic attack at and they sent me away! No panic attacks this time. BP was still high but not as bad as last time. It’s over and done with for a year! But I for the past couple…

the word “sketch” holds no meaning
Like literally over the past few days I’ve typed the word “sketch” so many times to tag posts that it no longer looks like a legitimate word, it looks weird and wrong. SKETCH SKETCH SKETCH But I’m all done going back through the archives of my blog and adding in all the old stuff. Enjoy at your own risk and…

A Gigantic Dump of Artwork
So I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that I knew I had “a couple” of sketchbooks in the attic at my parents, that I’d seen them once when I had to go up there a few months ago. I wanted to go over and grab them and see what was in them, mostly driven by knowing that some of…

Starman
I’m here working on my website today… I’m avoiding social media, because it keeps reminding me that David Bowie has passed, and it’s too upsetting. We lost him far too soon. So I’m focusing on working on my website and trying to get this revamp finished. And since I haven’t posted much recently, I have a backlog of photos to…

Art Post: Unfinished Costume Art
So I was trying to do this project where I was drawing each of the costumes I’d done, so I could use them as the reference in each portfolio entry — that way, I’d have a good full-length view of the costume I’d made for the viewer to compare. I actually got a few done before I abandoned the project…

Art Post: Shadowcat
In 2012 I did this little project where I was trying to draw the characters I’ve costumed as — just quick little simple things I could use as the “reference image” on my costume site. I only got a few done before I decided I wasn’t going to use a reference image at all on my site anymore LOL So…
