Journal Entry: Thu Sep 10, 2009, 11:53 PM


So still at Microsoft SDC until Christmas. Things are getting busier and busier, but at least I'm having fun! To add to the fun, my car decided to die Wednesday night. All fixed up now, but worked from home the last two days while the mechanic fixed it. Thank goodness for remote workstations :)

I'm also debating about what I wear to tomorrow's Baronial. I keep thinking about my late period italian, but corsets can be a pain. I am getting close to finishing my Elizabethan pair of bodies, but not close enough .... too many eyelets left to sew! So I'll probably be boring and wear my early period celtic garb.

I've mainly been doing lots of sketches/ speedpaints as I just haven't had the drive/ energy/ motivation to work on big pieces. That being said, I do have a pretty big digital piece I'm hacking away at ... slowly! So in case you don't bother flipping through my scrap book here ya go!

I just sort of found your work through random browsing, but I like what I see! Your palette is so pale and lovely, and you do some beautiful people. Very nice work!

I like your "old school" style of Celtic flavored drawings.
Very wonderful.
It must be something in the Australian water, ...a lot of your countrymen/women do this wonderful richly detailed art style.
My congratulations.

Thank you :) I think a lot of us come from good old Celtic stock and painting it is the next best thing to living there!
