Swallows remind me of penguins. They’re just much smaller, lighter, and flightier.
Illustration Friday Blog Opens!
Illustration Friday has a new feature, the IF Blog. Created by co-founders Penelope Dullaghan and Brianna Privett, this new page replaces the “news” page on the site. It features fresh posts from Penny and Brianna, as well as other illustrators such as Rama Hughes, Steve Mack, Josh Sears, Melanie Ford Wilson and Amanda Woodward. Oh yeah, and me. I’m not sure how I was deemed worthy to share the stage with these stars, but I won’t complain. For once in my life, was I in the right place at the right time, and prepared even?
The biggest perk in this for me (followed by the inevitable exposure and linkage) is that I am under the gun to produce. To illustrate. Now. Not later. So my lame excuses for not drawing, or not sharing my drawings to the general public now pale in comparison to this new self-inflicted pressure to feel worthy. This should, in theory, kick my arse into gear, as the thought of the general public questioning why I am part of the elite few is far too painful to dismiss. Yeah, so I am an acceptance ‘ho. So be it.
Look for great inspiration, the stuff of dreams and maybe a few witty words, hopefully sometimes a few from me. 🙂
Happy Friday!
