current mood: confused
I have so many ideas in my head right now. So much I want to work on. I can't wait to start seeing everything come together.
In addition to my webcomic 2:15, I'm thinking about also making my weekly strip, Apt. C3 a webcomic as well. It'll probably update on Sundays, and 2:15 will keep it's Tuesday/Friday sched. I really miss making Apt. C3 strips. It is SO much fun. I just got distracted by so much and kind of pushed it to the back burner.
Micah also sent me a wonderful postcard the other day that re-lit a flame for postcard comics that I've wanted to try out. I'll have to figure out exactly how that'll work, but I love the idea. Mail art has always been a (not so) secret passion of mine.
On top of that, I'm also working on scripting a graphic novel. This story has been rolling around and evolving in my head since high school, and this is the first attempt where it actually looks like it'll make sense and work. For those of you who follow me on dA, I've posted some character sheets and sketches. It's an action/adventure/romance/fantasy. With pirates. Sky pirates. and Flying Deer. it's epic! lol.
I also want to get back into painting. Not just watercolors, but my acrylic painting. I bought all new paints and a few boards and I just want to dive back into it. Because, although at times I'm very lazy, I do miss it.
On the studio/gallery end of things, I'm getting really nervous because NOONE has gotten back to me about putting any art in. I know Kori's got some stuff she's willing to give me, but other than that, out of the 30 or more people I've contacted, I haven't heard a thing. Which is the main reason I keep pushing back my opening date. Now it's looking more like September. Which is fine by me. I just really wish someone would email me with some stuff they'd like to put in here.
And then that makes me kind of paranoid about the people I knew up in Portland. After I left, a lot of shit happened, and now I feel like, even though I didn't really have anything to do with anything that happened, I'm being ignored and given the cold shoulder... virtually. I actually broke down in front of my parents about it the other week. I just feel like I lost some friends, and I don't know why. It bothers me. Because... not to toot my own horn, but I'm an amazing person and an awesome friend. I don't feel like I did anything to offend anyone or created a situation in which I should for some reason now find myself blacklisted from a certain group of people. I don't know. Maybe I'm overthinking it. Maybe they're just lazy and don't want to respond to anything I send them.
Maybe I'll ask.
or maybe I won't.
anyway, I've got a great group of friends at home, and really wonderful BFFLs scattered about the country. I know they'll always be there for me, even when some people drift away.
