Can anyone tell I'm staying with my mother for break?

Almost forgot....

I need to go back and find the actual book.  The Seven Chairs and Mr. Linden's Library were some of my favourites but this is the one I was talking to Zoe about because her strange rocks reminded me a little of it. Not that I need another side project right now but doing stuff like this.. Creepy drawings and rando titles plus lines of text. Ahaha so much fun.  

The Mysteries Of Harris Burdick by Chris Van Allsburg.

 

Post Thanksgiving haze

I dislike feeling overfull. For sure.  Now it's time to just sit around and drink tea in mental preparation for the next week.  Must: glare at panels until they dry faster.  Find more voice recordable greeting cards. Run around like headless turkey (or waddle rather given post-thanksgiving status) finding the people who speak the panels and get them to say a single word normally.
Thought: will they all come to the show now that they know they're in it?
Counter-thought: cars...
Sub-Catagory: Speak to kyle about base for mosaic thingy. I've now got some sweet bottle caps.

Backlogged Postage

Apparently Florida had not yet discovered the interwebs.

The plan was to have some Words With Friends, a happy drawing and another page of the graphic novel done for the crit.  as of now- mostly check.  Need more of the page (only laying out stuff done now.) I love the compositional problems these pages lead to.  I think it takes me about three times as long to plan and lay out a page as it does to colour it in.  

I'm using the grey-scale markers in both warm and cool greys to imply colours and textures, which is about as far as i can go into colour and stay relatively sure of myself.  Colour is scary stuff.

Playing around with angles is much more fun.  Thanks to Mark Wetli for the panels....

The juxtaposition of these is really a little disturbing at times.  The Lady Agnew one is so recognisable...
