itesser ink: progress, uncensored

This is the fourth post in progress in... a while. offline life has been more consuming and interesting than online life and projects lately. For example, today I finished off my first sketchbook. It's been a while coming, but right before dinner I doodled in a last mbear on the back page of the book. No more pages!

Well, there are a couple sides blank early in the sketchbook, from before I started my current project of referencing nearly every single photo in a book on Italian film. I'm on page 90 of ~250. It's just practice, not exact copying. Mostly figure doodles based on the photos, but I often have to shift the pose or add limbs.

That, work, husband, and some DS playing (pokemon) consume most of my time. I still read every post on my LJ f-list, and all my emails, and spend some time on AIM (but not much)... but haven't put effort into keeping up with my blogs for 6 days. Not even my top 20.

When I get focused in one area, I feel like a slacker in all my other areas, which diminishes my happiness with being focused in the one area. Sucks.

I'll stop here and treat my mild headache. I'm out of practice, and don't need to jump back into the game all at once. Baby steps. :)
