These have both been added to the gallery. Keep your eyes peeled for another art update Monday if all goes well. Incidentally, the gallery has also been updated with a downloadable portfolio, T&C, and CV for client use. I’ve also added a Freelance page to distinguish between business projects and private commissions.

I’ve just signed up as an Artist/Illustrator with the D20 Girls Project. I hope to work on an exciting project with them in the summer, and in the meantime they’ve been very generous in offering me plenty of great opportunities to display and sell my art at conventions I wouldn’t normally be able to attend, as well letting me set up an online store. I was pretty impressed.
If you’re curious about the company, I was originally interested enough to approach them because of their business premise. The site states that the business is “specifically geared towards promoting a female spirit in the gaming industry.” In a nutshell, this means that they offer anime/gaming convention services with the unique angle of employing actual female gamers and fans as opposed to “booth babes” who know nothing or care nothing about the actual series and games they are promoting. The D20 Girls, by contrast, are sincere enthusiasts and since they come in all sizes and backgrounds, they represent actual women far more accurately. According to their site, they are in essence the anti-booth babe: “The D20 Girls Project aims to break down modeling stereotypes; we are not Barbie™ dolls.”
I felt like I would enjoy doing work for the company for these reasons, so don’t be surprised if you see assignments for them popping up in my art updates now and then. Here’s my profile on the site: http://ww4.d20girls.com/profile/sandpaperdaisy
I’ve also updated the Links page with a link to the D20 Girls main page.

Two new pieces finished today and added to the gallery, Digital Art category.
Several works have also been added to the Business category. Since I have been invited to display a large amount of work at the Arts Council building in March, I will be having a lot more art to put in the Traditional Category soon. I also plan to pare down the gallery somewhat to give it more of a portfolio focus.

It was only up as the interim background image for one day, but I will always remember the psychotic smudgy blimp with kindness.
Now however, if you visit this site you will see this image of…well, sandpaper daisies. Blood and all. At least, I imagine your fingers would bleed if you played “she loves me, she loves me not” with sandpaper daisies. There are also teeth in the big daisy for added subliminal threat. Text is random text from passages of Down Your Street.

Mobilization has been completed and the Updates/News page has been moved over so that About is now the site frontpage. As usual, this all took a lot longer than I expected it to take (2 hours longer to be specific) but ultimately I’m glad I got it done. The background site image will be improved upon presently to something a little less busy, but for now, please enjoy this messy psychotic blimp.
