Summer Wave of Art

 

When I notice how I haven't made a comic in a while...I decided to make one, it's been too long. I have lost my touch figuring out comics so as I started this comic it was supposed to be something completely different but, as I was doing it this idea came out and I like it much better. It just really came to me and I asked my sisters for advice and grammar check and my older sister has asked if she said, "You said not to pretend, I wasn't pretending!" at the end, before it said, "I was just kidding! Mistakes were made," but I like it better the other way. 

I have been working on Sweet and Sour 2, even though the first book is still not out there yet. I have a way to possibly get it published but I just want to make sure that the grammar is correct, so I had my friend read it and now my sister is reading it since I don't have an editor I'm doing my best here. I haven't done a vlog video, for I never know what to do or say in them, but I am working on other animations. I don't know if I should spoil what it is for I want it to be surprised, but I will say that the title is called "Death By Peanut," hmm?

I am also working on another project, I have been diligently working on for a few weeks now and it's not my book. I have been hired to work on a children's book for someone else, I am not sharing details about it for I don't think I can, but I do want to say that I was very happy to do it. It was originally given to a relative of mine, but she has too much on her plate so she asked if I can take it, I gave the guy a few of my examples and he liked it so I was given this task and going to get paid. YAY! My first thing ever as an artist! Besides Fan X, last year I was at Fan X with my friend selling art and it went ok, didn't make very much but it was great being there.

Summer is almost over and it's always a birthday wave for me and my family, in August we had birthdays every week, and I was asked to make some of the party invitations. Besides everything else I was trying to draw, I made time to draw birthday parties invitations for my family. I am not going to share them exactly but I will share that I drew my daughter and her cousin's birthday party theme wear. It was a mini mouse theme party, and on the cake, they had this picture below on it! Isn't that the cutest! it was a great party and so happy that everyone likes my art.


I keep getting requests which can be hard but I manage. I had a request for myself as well, haha. I decided to draw all of my family members and their families as a family portrait. I won't share my whole family but I will share mine. My family right below. Me and my two kids, the beginning of this year was messed up, and not only because of everything else that was happening this year, but for me personally I had a decision to make and it was part of the reason why I stopped drawing for a while. It is personal and not ready to share it, but I do love my kids and want to be there for them no matter.

And lately all summer long I've been doing this chapter, chapter six. Today I realized that I finally got to the end of it and finally on Chapter seven. I didn't do the one page a day at all, I only got to it when I can and it shouldn't take that long but also this chapter was hard to do because there are complicated scenes in it. It's full of action. Fighting, arguing, and such so I was dreaded on it.
