Camera!

I've been putting in soooo many hours lately, and I still feel like my amount of work isn't what it should be for my amount of time. Isn't that crazy? 2 hours can be like, 1/2 of a page completed. Anyway, here's some more pages, Jon brought me his camera!

Eureka!

Yesterday, I found a big bag of all the paper scraps I've collected over the last year. It is amazing. I've been working like crazy! I love today.



Unfortunately the only camera I have right now is on my computer, so here's a little glimpse of my workings.

:)






These are still very unfinished, but the fact that I am finally motivated makes me very excited. I'm a little mad that you can't see the detail on these, because that's definitely the best part.

I'm working on these books!

So far, the bug pages have been coming along nicely.





I'm in the process of scanning them in and manipulating them further.

Starting

Why is starting so difficult? I'll have everything down. I'll have images, paper, ideas, but... no composition.

Composition is always difficult at first, that blank piece of paper glaring at me. It knows that I have difficulty starting, and it laughs at my face.

But anyway, I finally did get started. I've done all the image research last week, and I even cut up all the bugs and made new bugs, and I just finally decided I had to start making pages.

This is what my living room looks like. My roommates are going to kill me.




And a couple of new bugs.

This embarks my new semester! This semester I will be making books, and I am so excited!

This week, I've been working on gathering imagery for my first set of 3 small ones. One will be on bugs, one on vines, and one on birds.

I've been scanning in like crazy lately! I've also been doing a lot of drawing, I haven't scanned those in yet, but I'll post pictures tomorrow.
