Better Things to Do

I've had a hard time staying motivated as I finish up my term of AmeriCorps service. I don't have a cat, but if I did, I'd totes let it sleep on my head sometimes.

A sort of continuation of last week's "Adventures of Tiny Worm" comic. Tiny Worm not pictured.

Thursday Afternoon Comics!

I wanted to make a cute and simple comic. That resulted in "The Adventures of Tiny Worm":

Keep an eye out for more comics from me in the upcoming month. I have time to draw these things now!

Bird-Brained

Now that I'm finding myself with free time (almost too much free time - I'm still looking for summer employment because I need to work more than one day a week) I have more time to draw. I often have a hard time figuring out what I want to draw, which is why I really like Selfless Portraits - when you agree to participate, they send you the profile picture of someone else using the app on Facebook, so you get to draw someone else's portrait. You need to do it fairly quickly too - within 48 hours.

It's a good exercise, though I don't know if my random stranger is going to like my portrait. I found his features to be quite birdlike (especially his hair), so I just turned him into a bird. It's not a very representational portrait, that's for sure:

The poor, random boy assigned to me

The resulting portrait

Pretty crazy. But it was a fun exercise. Now I'm awaiting the portrait some random stranger drew of me. Perhaps that artist has turned me into an animal as well.
