Oh, August...you perch on the brink of marvelous autumn, but so often contain more hideous heat and humidity than any of the prior summer months.
Luckily, I work in a climate-controlled environment.
I finished and sent off my first piece of real illustration freelance this week. I sent an invoice and everything. A generic, downloaded invoice without my logo or anything, but it was right before bed, and I didn't want to waste time I could be sleeping, especially on a Monday. Let me tell you, as much as I love my Fridays off, this schedule is still brutal. Anyway, my art was well received, and the studio is interested in working with me on a bigger project soon, about which I am very excited.
Since I am between official projects...or rather, taking a tiny break before starting the non-time-sensitive commission that is waiting in the wings, I have been attempting to finish my moth rider. I'm still struggling with the wings a bit, and making up the anatomy as I go, but not having a proper idea of where things went when I started really set me back a bit, and the size of the wings (much larger than in my original sketch) have changed my composition a bit. We will see.
