*MommySpike

I tried something new today -- while my car was being worked on, I walked over to the Borders down the block and set up my art supplies in the coffee shop. It certainly beats sitting in the customer area at the car dealers with all the banging noises and exhaust fumes. Mind, I did have to put up with a girl who was reading the newspaper out loud to her friend who was busy on her laptop but the chai latte was good and the lighting was excellent. I inked half of a new fantasy pic for this year's art show circuit so I feel very accomplished today.

Of course, when I wandered back to the car dealershipe, I found that my car had been ready for over half an hour and no one bothered to call me, in spite of me saying that I was going to the bookstore and PLEASE call my cell. *sighs* I suppose you can't have everything.


Attention Artists: Do you have a Live Journal? Want to pump up your artistic talents? Now's your chance -- April Drawing [link] is starting up next week. Every day for the month of April, a drawing challenge will be given and you will have a change to post your doodles, sketches, and other artwork.

NOTE FROM THE ARTIST:
PLEASE do not COLOR or MODIFY my art work!! I like my pencil and ink sketches exactly the WAY they are -- I do NOT find it flattering to find them colorized and posted on someone else's page. The best way to improve your own art is to draw your own characters and to practice, practice, PRACTICE!

Please don't make MommySpike unhappy!
