What's being worked on today
Today--well today I'm catching up with some online orders, I owe two people a batch of catnip toys and need to get those finished up and out in the mail by tomorrow (or I don't get paid!). Damn but the post office had to go and put the price of shipping anything UP again, even internationally.
Otherwise, if I have time before it gets too late (and after I get the sidewalk shoveled, it's got 2" of wet snow down right now and more still falling) I'll tackle the new paper doll art I've been sketching out on scrap paper. Get the main characters at least inked in and set up a lightbox situation to start in on the costumes.
An easy light box cheap artist trick--use the TV or computer screen. So long as the background is light in color, there's enough static electricity on either one to hold a piece of paper in place so you can work with the next layer of paper over it. Hurray for low tech art supplies, it saves me from buying a $50 actual real light box.
