Evening!

Hey everyone!

It seems I’ve been away for a while… sorry! Been busy with work, helping people out and just generally relaxing, but I think it’s time to come back and start creating work again, so stay tuned! :)

Konichiwa!

Just a quick hello to let you know that I haven’t dropped off the face of the earth or anything…

I’ve been working traditionally lately which means I have to scan work in, and it’s safe to say I’m a little lazy when it comes to scanning. I’ll force myself to do it shortly and show you all what I’ve been up too :)

Also, L4D2 has taken over my life again (Why is zombie killing so much fun!?). So if you’d like to have a game, feel free to add me. My ID is ‘C.’.

Hope everyone’s well.

See you soon!

Eventful week

Last week turned out to be a bit of a strange one!

Firstly I was in the basement at work doing some archiving and ended up dropping half of what I was carrying. I bent down awkwardly and (embarrassingly) split my trousers… ARG! I called my friend down and she lent me her cardigan to put round my waist and then we laughed about the whole thing. I managed to get home without any more embarrassment. They were my favourite work trousers as well! :(

Usual work days followed, then Thursday came. I’ve started to donate blood whenever the blood mobile it at our office and I’d booked an appointment for Thursday afternoon before I headed off home. Giving blood went smoothly. Got up and sat for a bit holding the little bandage on my arm while the nurses tended to other people. Anyway I looked down to see if I can take the bandage off and noticed I’d started bleeding so had to sit for a bit longer to make sure it stopped. I then left with my friend and started to walk back to my desk, however after getting half way I noticed my arm was bleeding quite a lot so

Thank you!!!

I’m so shocked! I viewed my email on my phone and it wouldn’t stop ringing with all the new followers and questions - it’s still going now.

Although I’m not sure what brought you all here, I hope you stay and enjoy my work (even when it’s terrible!).

Have a great evening and thanks again! *grins*

This is what I’ve been up to lately. I’ll post the finished piece tomorrow (and touch up that terrible wheel at the front!).

Observation

I was sitting at my desk the other day and got quite annoyed at myself as I wasn’t working. I then realised that I’d sat down to begin drawing at 7pm only to lapse into my awful routine;

1. Watch TV and eat dinner

2. Decide I need to get up and do some actual work

3. Log into my computer

4. Look at my favourite blogs and check any comments/emails

(now this is where it all goes wrong…)

5. Follow various links and browse websites that I’m only looking on at aimlessly

6. Realise over an hour or two later that that’s all I’ve been doing

7. Start work at 8.30pm

8. Finish at 9pm to do a bit of exercise and reading before I go to sleep

9. I might do a bit more work at 10 until 11pm before I nod off.

Well it’s safe to say this has to stop, otherwise I won’t be producing very much.

I’ve been off work for the past week on holiday. I needed a break from the office and wanted to visit my family as I live a few hours away from them at the moment. It was really nice to see them and we went to a guinea pig farm with my niece (who was 4 yesterday) and I’ve never seen so many guinea pigs in one place. The picture above is just of one corner of the room! I swear there must have been close to 100 guinea pigs there…
I’m definitely not looking forward to going back to work on Monday. It’s just so repetitive and I can only cope so much with telling myself ‘I’m doing it for the money and the experience’, it’s not even anything to do with art which is the worst thing. Oh well.
I’m working on a couple of things at the moment so I’ll post a few updates soon on those.
Hope your all well!
Oh and I’ve changed my blog layout (again) which you’ve probably noticed. Let me know what you think and if there are any errors.

I got a little bored of the old layout and decided I liked this one. I hope you do too!
