A Stopgap and the Start of Something New.

Hello!

I come to you from what feels like the bottom of a big hill. These last three months in Brighton have taught me three things; the sound of the sea dissolves woes, hard times are hard and to make most of absolutely any situation. Although we have next to no money I really couldn't be happier and somehow I feel like we are finally getting somewhere. My only escape from the tiny little bedsit we call home is creating, dreaming and japanese food.

A Stopgap and the Start Of Something New

This is edited from the sketchbook that kept me going through the summer, I feel like we are looking through a window to the real world going by, but yet to really run along with it. This following image is our means to an end, the bedsit we share and will remember forever for it's miniature size and our big adventures.

My Other Self

I feel as though I have been drawing too many self portraits of late. Is that being self absorbed? I don't want to think so. Below you will find a selection of the final transformation into an animal images I created last month. A select few because the other two are too bad ever to see the light of day ever again. Unless they get discovered by a historian in a few hundred years as they dig through a landfill trying to work out how our society fell apart. Mmm maybe I should sign them? :)

  

This is me, I love the hair it was rather painful on the wrists but worth it I think. All is done with a loverly pen/paintbrush/drybrush I got given to me by Robert Sae-Heng. I can give info.

You can tell I got lazy by this point as far as the hair is concerned. 

Concerning is also the word I would use to describe the Avatar like look I have got going on here.

My favorite one and the fastest to complete. I am proud of the dreamy gaze in those eyes. I would love to  have side-eyes for a day just to see how much I can see and cant see. I can imagine it would make eating food difficult and avoiding lamp-posts. 

Other than scanning these (which took far too long) I am enjoying vanilla smells, listening to Waltz In Black by The Stranglers and a cup of tea and a little cake with a cherry on top! I feel so english!
