Hi

I finally got my computer back yesterday. Sweet Jesus. I should be working on something shortly.

Update

The situation is still the same; HOPEFULLY I will be getting my computer back tomorrow or Wednesday, but I'm not holding my breath. They have been saying "tomorrow" every time I call them, and they've had it for two weeks now. Pretty ridiculous. They keep ordering all of these parts from Asia and possibly Saturn.

I've been so bored that I made a new blog where I talk about music. Maybe if I actually update it often I can make some money with AdSense. That would be neat.

With any luck, I will be back to posting art again in the near future.

Computer Problems

My computer has been at the shop this week due to some fried parts. I guess I was playing video games too hard. For now, I'm stuck with my older PC that doesn't have any of my art tools or programs on it. I think everything should be fixable, though, so hopefully I'll be back in business soon.

T-Shirt Design 1

I've been trying to think of more ways to make money from my art besides freelancing, and I think I might have some funny ideas for cartoons that could appear on T-shirts. I've worked in retail before and have a pretty good idea of what people will buy. Basically, a lot of people love ridiculous humor that borderlines on raunchy, and I think I'm pretty adept at that. These definitely won't be your grandma's kind of shirts (unless she's one of those cool grandmas).

Apparently, it's best to use a maximum of 8 colors when making these. I think I ended up with 7 or something, but I found it a little challenging, especially since black and white count as colors too. However, I think it will be fun to experiment with some creative "workarounds", if you will. Plus, limiting myself to so few colors can result in an interesting and unique palette in every piece.
