Okies back from AFK

Hello everyone,
for those of you who follow my blog I have finally tied up my obligations and other distractions and can now begin or resume work on my art. I'm learning multitasking .. but so far no go as I've had to put my art on the backburner while taking care of stuff that had a hard deadline with dire consequences should I mess up.

Anyways I will have exactly 1 month of complete free time which I will devote to my artwork in all its forms as well as work on my projects. Its kind of lame that my brilliant ideas were all last year's and that I've had 12 months but yet no progress.

so AFKworks may be coming live to nyc : more info later.

still working on it

while i haven't forgotten my various projects i just havent beeen able to free up time yet

projects 3d model of bleach ichigo mask and modified
comic strip wow and enzi of the runes
20 fish monsters ranging in cutenss and 3 more hero models with males that look like sasuke
draw

.. so i haven't completely forgotten my projects here but hopefully this week i will free up some time to work on comic strip, 2d, 3d art work etc

update

i'm still busy with classes and haven't been able to free up time to work on my projects here. So much for multitasking but my ideas are still here.

todo list: draw 10 cute goldfish, then predators, 2 more character head/shouldershots in style of girl 1

busy busy .. afk works is on backburner until I get my time management fixed. So far I've not been able to split my time up evenly to work on this project as well as my other stuff.

Reading good books and bad ones

Books! I'm a huge fan of books though only of stuff that I like reading.

I will never read a book just because it might impress someone or because its "the fashionable" thing to do. The book will have to appeal to me and be well written and on the subject that I like for me to read it. I overheard coworkers talking about how many months they've been trying to read War and Peace by Tolstoy. Or how they've been meaning to finish reading this dreadfully boring book and that its taking a while. One day I had enough of thier whining so I asked them the obvious question why not pick another book? Thier answer was oh I can't do that I need to finish this. Clearly someone has lost thier marbles ...wouldn't it be nicer to spend the same amount of time enjoying a good book rather than slogging through yet another dry book.

When a book "sucks" its usually a combination of author + reader and so what if a certain author is gifted he or she doesn't fit your reading style so that book is a bad fit. Reading is like dating there's no one reason why that book doesn't work out but that's just the way it is you put it down and move on to the next one.
