So. Life.
It has been putting a stop to my art lately. I am realizing more and more that this job i have at the moment is not ideal for illustration production or any sort of social life, or anything but work really. And as it isn't yielding big monetary rewards either I am having some serious doubts about it. It has actually made me consider going back to school even. Just so that i can focus on making a graphic design portfolio as well as an illustration one. I've realized that in this country there really is a lot more studio work to get as a graphic designer rather then an illustrator. But the long term plan is still to get out of here. Preferably somewhere warmer... And I'm not completely sold on the whole school idea since it IS pretty expensive and I don't want an even bigger student loan. So we will see. I don't want to put it off too long either, as I am really motivated to get career building, and making great art of course.
In other news. We just booked a trip to NEW YORK BABY! It will be my second time over there, and this time I am going with a bunch of friends so it will be more of a real fun times holiday. Last time was also fun, but that was a uni trip, so fun in a different way. If anyone has any good tips for stuff to do in the big apple it would be much appreciated. So far we are planning MOMA and Natural history museum(again), some comic shopping as well as general shopping, visiting that bridge that is a park now and perhaps some amusement park fun. But yes, if anyone has any more arty or less touristy tips for me I would love it.
I'll try to upload some artwork today or tomorrow. Just needs some finishing touches (and I need to recreate some brushes to do that. :().
