Gasp...!

so, I totally can't wait to get back to the Miramichi and start the new school year. Don't get me wrong, Fredericton is a nice place and i love my Family and Friends, but I'm just SO excited to start animation. just a month and a third left.

In much happyer, and more important news, Vicky came down from the Miramichi last weekend. I got to see her for most of the day Sunday. We went to see Pirates of the Caribean: Dead Man's Chest, which was completely and utterly awesome. such a Clifhanger!!! after the theatre, we went to eat at Mexicali Rosa's, a little restaurant downtown, and one of my favorites. we then went to Blockbuster and rented Mirrormask, which was great, very imaginative with crazy visuals. all in all it was a very awesome day. "you never know how much you miss someone untill they're gone" aplies very well here. yet another reason to get back to the Miramichi.

and most important, Vicky and I are actually together now :D we've been seeing each other for about a month or so, but now we are 'officially' boyfriend/girlfriend. I'm very, Very happy :D


as for my daily sketching, well, daily has kindof gone out the window the past week. I don't know why, but I couldn't seem to get into it. oh well, time to plow ahead anyways. this is a little experiment I did last night with water soluble pencil. is'nt it cute.

Two Sketches

Summer is in full swing here in Fredericton, which for me means no free time. I got home last Friday, started working that Saturday, and havn't stopped since. actually, I don't have a day off untill this coming Sunday, which is only free because I asked for it off. There's this cool chick named Vicky coming down from the Miramichi to visit, I'm very excited about it. we're going to see Pirates of the Caribean 2:Dead Man's Chest, very cool.

I watched a very cool movie yesterday called Strings, and I highly recomend it to anyone who likes weird movies, or is into animation. it's all done with marionettes and is surprisingly well 'acted'. Also, I got to see Superman Returns in theatres last Friday. to me, it was awesome, most of my friends however are of a different mindset. oh well, too each their own right?

I've got two pictures for you today, the first is one of my favorite superhero's. Many people may know him as Shazam, but he's actually called Captain Marvel.





I've been keeping up with my daily drawing b sketching during my breaks at work. I havn't had the oprotunity however to really sit down and think about my painting, which is a little it of a downer.

Until next time...
