A thing
Originally uploaded by Eating ghosts
Out of hospital! it was a bit of an ordeal, as i imagine all hospital visits are. But it's over now and hopefully i won't have to go back for some time.

I'm already going slightly mad being stuck in the house all day, i want to go for a run, or kick things or... anything! Several othe rhorrible things happened while i was in hospital, so it's been a pretty retched week all round.

Working on more little drawings, for a few specific things. Really need to start job-hunting unfortunately. This move to Wellington is stressing me out somewhat, and i keep feeling things might not be so scary if i at least have some work lined up.

I just want to be a librarian, i think.

Digital!


Swanhilde

I haven't done anything digitally for quite some time.. but i do enjoy it. This is just a quick colour over a sketch for my bandits series. So it also a teaser, really. I've been drawing these mini-swans like crazy lately, which is odd, because in reality, i am scared stiff of white swans. Black swans i can handle because they are shyer (and also more common where i live) but white swans... i am very much afraid of them. Geese, too, but not as much.

Perhaps it's the honking.

Anyway, on a more personal note, I am having surgery on Tuesday. I will be out of action for some time after that ( i'm not allowed any form of exercise for a month... not even something so dull as jogging!) which either means i will be a lot less active on the internet, or a lot more. We'll see!

I forgot to mention, i was featured on the website of Frankie magazine. Frankie is one of the few magazines i actually read, so this is pretty wonderful.

Next step is to actually be in print in the magazine...

Badges are now for sale on etsy. I love the way they look on their little cards, but they look just as cute on clothes aswell.
