Knives and Dresses

...are two things that don't usually go together.  This is especially true, considering I'm referring to an anime character whose name is Knives, and he definitely does not wear dresses.  But I would pay to see him in one.

Okay, this time I've got a quick note on "draw impulsively," a drawing, and plans for a dress.

Draw impulsively! (Kekkai fanart opitional.)

I did two drawings in two weeks!  Woo!  I want you to envision me sitting at my laptop doing a happy dance in my chair, because that's what I'm doing right now.

I'm tentatively trying out a new art motto: draw impulsively.  Usually, when I get an idea for a drawing, I log it away in my head.  Then, when I actually feel like sitting down and working on a drawing, I'll browse my mental list of ideas, pick one that sounds pretty good, and work on it.  "Draw impulsively" means that when I get an idea for a drawing, within twenty four hours, I take up my sketch book and do a quick loose sketch of it, maybe 15 minutes, 30 tops.  If it's looking good, I'll finish it.  If the idea (or my ability to draw it) turns out to be lousy, I'll drop it and move on.  I've cautiously set a goal of one drawing a week, but we'll see.  I need to get started on some costumes, and that may throw that goal out the window.

Art things and Life things

Well, gang, not much here, but here's what I've got.
