First: is anyone else disappointed by Scott Pilgrim Volume 4? I was so excited when I bought it, now I'm just kind of sad.

In other news, thesis has a temporary hold on my life. Keep pretending I don't exist, and I'll come back somewhere around the end of April.

School's out.

I'm officially a thesis student. I thought this day would never come, and now the that it's here, the fear and misery is beginning to set in. Anybody have any funny one-liners that could inspire a two-minute film?

Ten Art Facts about me. I was tagged by :iconweja:

1) I don't like sketchbooks. People always like to snatch them out of your hands, flip through them and pass judgement. Because I know everything I do in a sketchbook will be seen, I get really tense and I rarely draw well. Thus I use sketchbooks as a mini portfolio, only drawing in them when I'm having a really good day art-wise

2) This relates to the first fact, but I do most of my drawing on scrap paper. I will honestly draw on just about anything, I horde discarded paper. I recycle all the drawn on scraps that I don't like, and save the good ones in a drawer.

3) I'm sort of an art MacGyver - I like using anything I can get my hands on to draw with. Dying Sharpies, ugly Crayola pencils I find on the ground, sticks dipped in ink, my dirty fingers, etc.. It's mostly because I'm a miser and I don't like to use expensive materials if I'm just playing around, which I usually am.

4) Ink's my favorite medium. I'm still looking for the perfect refillable brush pen (any recommendations?)

5) When I was in elementary school I drew on my desk all the time. My teachers would get really frustrated and my parents were called in on more than on occasion. I eventually confined my class doodles to the margins on my notes and the backs of test papers, but I still got in trouble sometimes.

6) As a kid I would draw lying on the living room floor in front of the tv. I had this weird habit of writing down snippets of whatever dialogue I heard, so most of my old notebooks look kind of schizophrenic. Kind of really schizophrenic. I had to train myself not to do it because people teased me (see fact #1).

7) I was the biggest Sailor Moon fan in junior high and the beginning of high school. I don't know why, but I was obsessed. I drew my first "anime eye" in the 7th grade.

8) I pretend to hate color, but I'm actually just afraid of it. I don't know what a "good" painting is - everything about color and design feels very foreign to me.

9) I've been a "serious" art student for eight years. I'm one of those people who would have no identity if drawing was somehow taken away from me. There isn't a single day when I haven't drawn something (I think).

10) The majority of my cartoons are naked. Distorting the human form is what interests me most. Hands and feet are especially fun.

UPDATE: I knew this would happen - as soon as I signed up for this meme, school deicided to kick my ass. Sorry guys, the sketches will be coming very slowly.

--------------------------------------------------------------

You guys jumped right on this shit, it scared me a little. Thanks for the quick and enthusiatic response, it was quite flattering. People and requests in order of appearence:

:iconred-monkey:  pirate cat
:icontreefolk-cannibal:  portrait
:iconpucca:  Stephane's dream-hands from The Science of Sleep
:icongottschalk:  A ghost cat with real nice boots
:iconkoisuru:  Bird people
:iconbikubiku:  Ryan and Vernan
:iconsixgunsalute:  Ryu and Nata
:iconecru:  Birdman - done
:iconlychi:  Original characters
:iconohsnap-son:  original characters

I'm just warning you now, these could look like ASS. Please don't take it personally, I think you all rock. I actually got pretty lucky - I've been meaning to draw things for most of the people on this list. I'm going to try to get at least one of these drawings done a week so this meme doesn't drag on forever. So keep your eyes peeled.
