Hi there SG,

Been a while since I posted. I felt I was posting too much. Giving too much away. People don't wanna hear my every thought.

I won't go into what I've been doing. But things have been pretty good. Feeling okay. I'm doing regular exercise. I'm getting out with friends a lot more. I've really cut back my drinking. Job still sucks but I think most people are in the same situation in that respect so I can put up with it.

I've been drawing too:





I've actually managed a comic. Feels pretty good.

Although I totally rushed this and it looks it. It took me about two and a half hours. It's helped me realise the rut I'm in. So, it's been good.

I'm not totally happy with my work right now. I actually feel like I've got worse as an artist over the last few months. I know this is in my head and not true, but it's making me rush things out of frustration. But when you rush you're not making you're best work so it doesn't come out quite how you want it to. Thus, keeps adding to the fact I feel I'm not as good as I used to be.

So, I'm going to try and NOT rush. I've always been one to draw pretty quick, but lately it's ridiculous. I don't even see my mistakes until they're already inked up and finished.

Comics are such a difficult thing to do. I don't know why I decided it was comics that I wanted to do but it was. They are difficult, but so satisfying.

Decided to join a life drawing class. Should be fun. I've done them before and you can never do enough life drawing.

Hope you're all good SG. But seriously, where is everybody?!
