For all the artists out there. xoxo

I agree with Natasha!  Make stuff even if it HURTS! <3

This is why I set myself the daily challenge in the first place. Every day, I make something new.

Even if it sucks, even if it’s ignored, or falls into the obscura black hole of tumblr before being noticed in >4months time and then reflagged, referenced or other… I still have something new.

And I made that happen.

That’s pretty wonderful in and of itself.

Now stop faffing about on Tumblr and make something!

yumfactory:

Japanese-born artist Sayaka Ganz creates sculptures out of discarded plastics found in thrift stores, converting these unwanted materials into graceful imitations of natural beauty. For her Running series, Ganz created life-like horses in mid-gallop. “Japanese Shinto beliefs are such that all objects and organisms have spirits, and I was taught in kindergarten that objects that are discarded before their time weep at night inside the trash bin. This became a vivid image in my mind,” Ganz explained her interest in recycled

Cover art wanted!

Anyone looking at my Smashwords Profile knows that my own skills at making covers for my works are very limited indeed.

I need someone with better art skills than my own (not hard) to make some covers that will actually encourage people to buy my words (tricky bit).

I also have very little in the way of income. Despite the hundred-some folks who’ve downloaded my free story, I have exactly zero folks who’ve bought anything.

I am willing

Things to be grateful for #5247985965490921…

The fact that Xotxot came through with the brilliant cover on the right; so that you get to read a book with that cover, rather than the nasty thing on the left that I came up with.

First thing tomorrow morn, mytime, that cover is going to be in my Smashwords profile. Enjoy!

This is the shit I put together

This is the brilliance Xotxot made for me

Phew! (pantpantpant)

I managed to bodge up a cover for my upcoming free book [Out TOMORROW!] in fantastic Suck-O-Vision care of my pathetic art skills and equally pathetic Inkscape skills.

It all stems from the concept that there’s a point in my story where my antagonist is completely covered in… things… [Spoilers] Therefore, the view plate of their helmet would be all HUD.

All I had to do was design the farging HUD.

Pain. In. The Arse.

Not doing that

I'm looking for title art

If you’ve read my recently-published tale, Late Bloomer and have any artistic talent, please post or send me something.

I’m looking to share Late Bloomer on EqD and they like it when you have art for a title page.

If anyone, anywhere, loves the story enough to make some non-spoilery fan art, please send it to cat@internutter.org or even post it as a reply here. Or send me a link to where you posted it. Whatever.

What the Flying Heck?

I’m new to drawing on a tablet device and my art skills are not the best.

That’s why I chose to fingerpaint some ponies as humans and share the results with you.

Each humanised pony took about two hours for me to get right. And I still hate what happened with the hands and feet. I suck at both.

By the time I was done focussing on the important part, I was all fgsfds when it came to

Here, I tried to encapsulate what’s wrong with the economy as well as why folks who buy from corporations are protesting corporations. (Like there’s a viable alternative to buying from corporations…)

I think I nearly sprained my hand drawing this. I have teh fail. [Again, click the pic for the HUGE version]
