Seriously I need to do more art (of my choice) before I go to school in 3 weeks. Hopefully I'll keep this promise (as I've yet to keep the last 2...). But I digress, over the summer I've drawn a lot in my sketchbooks and have made some true characters I am proud of, but sadly I have no scanner, so at night I just draw with my tablet, trying out programs. One program I have become very fund of is Corel Painter IX, I want to tackle other programs, like Photoshop, Flash, and Illustrator, but Painter is so far the most fun to use, and my tablet and it actually get along.

On an other note

CHECK OUT THIS GAME IT'S CALLED ::THE GAME:: it's great seriously, very simple, yet it will have you laughing. It pokes fun at culture (actually many of them, so it's pretty much making fun of the world)

Oh and another thing I finally got around to watching the entire Avatar series recommended to me by many people over the years, but convinced by my girl friend to finally see it in it's entirety. Thoughts on it, overall it's a great series, the pacing in my opinion is very off, but not enough to take away from it's greatness, the ending movie (or 4 parter) is no less than a perfect ending.

Oh and I have recently been reading more Sequential Art related things (comic books, manga, etc.) but I try to read obscure ones. The most recent one features art and some writing by

It's quite a different take on sequential art narrative as it sometimes reads like a novel, but a great read none the less.
