....know what do with myself?

Saturday night, and here I sit. Exciting as my life is, browsing your arts, I don't even have my own tablet connected, but you can bet there's a beer in my hand. (I've been entirely drinking too much lately... I miss my sweet friend Mary Jane. Stupid pee tests!)

I have been producing a piece or two lately, which is great, I just need to keep up the momentum. Lately I have been thinking about the aspects of my abilities that I need to work on, such as backgrounds for subjects, and how I get lazy at the last minute while painting and don't touch up my line-work. I could probably do a bit better if I put forth the effort. I enjoy drawing and painting, so I don't know why I get so sloppy.  

A new tablet that isn't mostly broken and tiny would certainly help, and a screen bigger than this laptop would as well. Both are soon to come to me with any luck, (birthday, hint hint family or hubby?) and then the quality of my stuff should improve a bit when I can actually SEE what I'm drawing. Isn't it awesome how the price of Wacom tablets has dropped so drastically lately? The large Intuos used to be like $1200 a year ago and now they're like $450. Yay for mass touch technology forcing the price down!

Fuck I'm pissed I'm likely going to miss The Mountain Goats show here AGAIN. Why won't anyone go with me?
