fsq xmas

It started with a doodle while I was making a presentation for the FSQ promo cards.

Then, I thought, "Hmm, this looks like it would be a fun project!"

fucking around

And here is what I'm going to print out and pass to everyone in the firm.

finished!

Oh, I love the satisfaction of seeing something go from in your head to actual finished product.


EDIT: I emailed the drawing to the firm and the partners asked if I could use that to make a Christmas card to go out to our clients. I am so surprised. And happy!

let there be light

I am trying to draw more. Doodle. Sketch. Anything to keep chipper.

filling up time

It's 2010 and I am still running the same version of Photoshop (7.0) since it came out. Is that bad? (Probably.) Considering how my day job isn't anything at all directed towards what I want to do in the future career-wise, I am trying to fill up the rest of my time with doing the things that I love.

Hence, the firm Christmas card. Not the one they will be sending out, no, but the one I will be giving everyone at the firm.

The partners, in what my friends and I call, "The Jimmy Pose."

I keep forgetting how much I like making things. I found an old flier I made for the female a Capella group in my school, Serendipity, for one of their shows.

Almost Kinda Sorta Famous

I have to get on my shit, get a degree, find a new job, etc., etc. Onward!

a fresh start

It's a new year, a new city, a new leaf.

I am terribly excited.

It is quite unfortunate that I chose to escape the harsh winter of New York and flee to Kansas City right in time to be hit by the unusual winter weather that is sweeping the southern part of the nation.

I do have to say that it feels like home. Home during the winter. With the cold and the snow and the ice and the wind.
