I finished my hat this evening while watching Walker, Texas Ranger with Ash. It turned out a lot better than I thought it would so I’m proud of it. I might actually make another hat with a different pattern or I might wait until I can get to Walmart or someplace so I can get more yarn. I still have some but I’d really like to try and make some rainbow-colored fingerless gloves. Those would be spiffy.

I was going to work on the portfolio tonight but I don’t really feel like it right now. I’ll work on it after we clean tomorrow. Tonight I’m just gonna go snuggle with my baby under our 101 Dalmatians comforter.

We’re such a sophisticated couple.

I spent almost all day yesterday working on my design portfolio. It’s online now though not nearly finished, so I’ll wait till I make a formal announcement about it. Suffice to say though that by the end of the night, my fingers hurt from coding and my eyes were tearing up from staring at the screen. I haven’t done rigourous coding like that in a long time, but it was a good thing. I re-taught myself some old tricks and got to know wordpress a lot better. Which means I’ll be working on more themes in the next few weeks (along with my portfolio, of course).

I think I might take a short break from online work until this evening. I started looking at knitting patterns and I want to get this hat done that I’m making so I can start on a new project (socks perhaps?). I realized that I never posted my finished Kerchief here so here’s a picture. Ignore me, I’m being weird.

Yep. I thought it was cute. Ash thinks it’s funny-looking, which is okay, because she still thinks I’m cute and that’s what’s important. Anyway, I’m going to go watch I Dream of Jeannie with her while she works on her photography and I knit. Wow, we have a really tough life, don’t we?

I thought so.

I figured I’d post more art since I finished this too and it’s up at deviantart. Makes me feel like a real artist, you know? Maybe I am, maybe I’m not. For the most part, I feel like I am. I think this proves it.

Let me know what you think. This is Blackbird, my Coyote character. Well, basically, she’s me. Hence, the Blackbird (Snailbird being her nickname). Does it not make sense to you?

Too bad, it makes sense to me.

And now for some art, because I haven’t posted any in a long time. My scanner isn’t hooked up (and I’m not even sure it’s actually here) so I had to make do with Ash’s camera, which is nice, but the lighting made it look funny. When I get my scanner set up, I’ll replace this with a better copy.

The original (and larger version) can be found here on my deviantart. I’m working on some more (with my brand new markers and colored pencils). I feel like an artist again. I just wish I could paint more too, then it would be perfect.

This is a wolf for my Ash, done in marker and colored pencils (Prismas). A wolf for my wolf!
