A few websites you may like to take a gander at...
http://www.wagonized.typepad.com/ - Artwork by France Belleville. Even though this is her main site it’s much like a blog which she updates a couple of times a week with new sketches.
http://bw-inc.tumblr.com/ - Blog of Jennifer Duong, who I’ve mentioned previously in my blog as an artist to watch. This is her blog in which she talks about the happenings in her life.

So it's Monday...
The weekend went pretty fast, which is never good and as usual I spent most of my time either drawing or playing Left 4 Dead as it’s too addictive!
The new Survival mode (sorry if you don’t play this game as you won’t have the slightest clue what I’m on about!) in which you have to survive masses of zombie hoards, smokers, hunters, boomers and tanks is really exciting,...

Artist Feature No. 3
I’ve decided for this Artist’s Feature to highlight someone who I don’t tend to watch often, but they are extremely talented and definetly deserve a glance.

Left 4 Dead: Survival Pack
The new Left 4 Dead expansion comes out (hopefully) tomorrow and well I can’t wait!!! I’ve been playing Left 4 Dead since about January and I’ve become quite addicted to it… The new expansion only really adds a new mode called ‘Survival Mode’ which is basically putting players in teams in certain sections of campaigns, and throwing hoarde after hoarde at them....

Artist Feature No. 2
Lois van Baarle, aka ‘Loish’
I’ve been admiring this artist for the past few years but always seem to be drawn back to her images even when I stray away from her work for a while. Lois’s style stands out and what I love most about it is it’s traditional nature. It’s full of texture and what I can only explain as a painterly finish, like you would achieve by...

Poorly!
It feels like it’s been forever since I last posted on here when it’s actually only been 5 days…
Well I’ve been a bit ill lately. Nothing bad, just a sore throat although you’d think being on antibiotics would mean I’d be a little less susceptible to colds/sore throats and stuff like that… but no :(. I’m on the mend though so all’s OK!
I will...
