Ok... so I'm not too fast...

I thought I'd have several works posted here by now. I was wrong. I haven't been working as hard as I should have been, but will try to change that and be more proactive in getting things done. I still have about 800+ new photos on turbosquid that I need to tag this weekend. Images on there aren't saleable until they are tagged with descriptions, keywords, etc.

I've also been trying to think about how to post hand drawn stuff in this blog. I think I'm going to mainly stick with pen and ink and/or acrylic more than any other medium since they'll scan in without any major hassles. I want to try to use scanner as much as possible instead of digital camera since there'll be less skew, parallax issues, and images can be re-used for other things... When I get around to regularly posting stuff here, I'll probably copy the better stuff in to Cafepress too so that I can put my works on coffee mugs, postcards, posters, tee shirts, and other things (maybe even thongs)... In my 5x7 blog, I'm trying to focus on 5x7s since that's a size that immediately can be printed and used in cheap 5x7 photo frames instead of requiring custom made frames... also 5x7 is the ideal size for cafepress cards - can't remember off hand if it's for greeting cards or postcards, but one of those requests 5x7s or pretty close to that size, I think, in order to keep proportions ok in their uploader. I'll try to put more here in the not so distant future.
