It’s been a while since I’ve had time to sit down and draw. After we moved and adopted the cats it’s taken a bit of time to settle in to doing creative things with paper. I’ve now been through a full cycle of ivf which was exhausting but ok. We are waiting on the outcome now. I also had quite a lot of animation work left to do on the computer and so prioritised getting that done.
But today I had some time to sit and draw some mini story boards for a documentary I’ve been working on for some time. I have some audio that needs visuals to go with it and I’ve been animating those sections among others. It feels really nice to be drawing again.
In other news I’ve started a patreon. There isn’t much on there at the moment but I’m planning to post pictures and updates on my drawing and writing which I’m less happy to put out in the public lest the ideas get pinched. I’d really appreciate it if people would be interested in following me there.

Maybe – we have a scan next week to see if there is anything going on, so it’s fingers crossed time! How are you ok?

Oh that sounds good. I am working on day job today. Beginning to wonder how much time I will have for art if the IVF is successful. Will have time off work for a maternity leave but will have a baby to look after!

Ach, you’ll be fine. You’ll have no way of scheduling your art, but you will have quiet moments to do it in.
Not sure if we’ve left it to late in life to have a kid here, but it’s the exact discussion we’re having at the moment. The missus is super flexible with time management, I’m as rigid as… A rigid thing, haha.

We left it pretty late. They say that there is never a good time…

“It’s not the right time,” becomes a crappy excuse after a while, aye. I do hope you have some good news soon.
