Workin’ on paintings today…page 80 of Digger got done yesterday, a number that staggers me completely. Today, did the layouts and about half of page 81. I have two paintings sort’ve in the works. I think I’ve finally hit a method for the mixed media originals that works–I do a sketch on the computer, I transfer it to paper in a crude and squiggly fashion with my trusty projector.

Then I go to a coffee shop and spend a few hours refining it while chatting with my fellow hominids.

Not only does this get me out of the house, it actually keeps me from rushing the sketch to get on to painting. Since I’m a lot better at painting than drawing, and enjoy it more, this is a good thing. Now I just gotta lay paint on the pesky things…
