Yea, I know what's on your mind when you say, Stay with me tonight.

As promised, the sample for my upcoming joint auction with the lovely Ana and Jaded. You get to see it before anyone, because you are an awesome blog-watcher. Way to go, you :)

I'm super stoked about this auction, it's gonna be epic. Can't give everything away yet though!

I'm really really good (read: bad) at going to bed on time, so here it is, 2am (again), and I'm updating my little section of the blog-o-sphere. How typical.

Things are changing for me. My mind is changing. My plans are changing?

At this point, my mind keeps changing from day to day, so it's almost not even worth it to officially put my opinion into words; it'll be different and irrelevant tomorrow. Cryptic? Yes. Helpful? No.

For now, let's just enjoy this:

filled with my sorrow and blood in my fields.
I am the voice of the future;
Bring me your peace,
Bring me your peace,
And my wounds, they will heal."

I can make you ice cream; we could be a sweet team.

I am getting the craving for black tights with boots, wavy long hair, and 80's sunglasses in turquoise. Basically, let's be totally rad.



Good God, I have so much on my To Do list... and yet all I wanna do is sit here and sketch some fashion illustrations. It's so much fun to be a totally ADD artist.

I feel like I should have something more groundbreaking to say to you guys.

I'm going to be in a Holiday Auction with two lovely, killer lady artist friends of mine. Since I promised to put sketches and process work up here for you, enjoy this chick:

She's a little messy, forgive me. She'll be CG'd.

The final version will be exclusively for my auction sample, which will probably launch Dec 5th or so.

Also working on lots of custom commissioned jewelry for the holidays, which is super exciting because I keep falling more and more in love with accessory and product design. Like I said, ADD. I like to refer to this condition as "Jane of all Trades".

Oh my gosh. I need to move out. For real.

"And you're a big wonderful tangle of lungs and arms and fingers and toes and broad shoulders and a sweet, sweet face."

And the best cover I've heard in a long time.
