Slacking...?

I haven't been uploading daily, it's not as easy as I thought it would be.  In a way it is, I was only planning to upload any sort of daily sketch or doodle but I keep thinking it's gotta be more "produced" then that and then I get overwhelmed and chicken out.  Laaaaame.  I have been making art though, I've been painting alot, so maybe I'll upload a photo of what I've been working on.

I've been using acrylics again, which I haven't done in ages because I learned that I don't really like them.  By trying them again it's reminded me that I don't like them.  I loooove using oils but the paint thinner is horribly smelly and I don't have enough ventilation in my place to use it so I haven't used oils in ages but I'm missing them something fierce!  So yesterday I was at Michaels and I saw they have ODORLESS PAINT THINNER! Why did I never see this before?  So that is definitely going to happen and I am most absolutely going to start painting with oils again because they make my guts twirl in a fantastic way.  I'm excited.

Drawing is still my favorite though I think.  I ordered some Copic markers a week ago and I can not wait for them to arrive! I am so amped to use them.  I just started with a 12 pack, halfly because that's all I could afford because they are like a shmillion dollars each, and halfly because I thought it would be good just to start out with a basic set of colours and then add each marker individually after.

Why is the coolest stuff so expensive.  Well it's obvious why but it sucks.
The good thing is that they have them in the Michaels in the town I'm moving to (they don't have them here which is weird because it's a way bigger city), so I'll be able to get them with coupons always. Yay!!  I love deals.

Here's one of my old sketches so I at least upload SOMEthing.


K I'm gonna go paint now bye.
