Happy new year Deviants!

New year and a new shit load of resolutions, some of which I'm sure will prove to be more successful than others. Saying that I did pretty well last year so I'm looking forward to not flaking on my new batch.

I'm been up to a few things since my last entry. Firstly, I made a little festive mix which (if you're not already sick to the back teeth of Xmas songs) you can grab here [link] there is accompanying artwork which I'll upload here at some point.

Staying on a musical tip, I've become somewhat addicted to 8Tracks [link] . A site where you can compile mixes with music either already hosted on the site or uploaded yourself. It's got a pleasingly retro feel to it, taking me back to the days when I used to make cassette tape compilations for people. Here's my page, let me know what you think :) [link]

Taking back to a more artistic subject, I've recently started my first 365 project. One of my resolutions was to really get to grips with photography and something like 365project.org [link] was just what I was looking for. I'm debating whether to upload selected pics here or not, we'll see. You can see how I'm getting on here [link]

X to the Y to the Zee,
KidVee.

Hey man, very nice work you have here.

I noticed that you made some of the artwork for the akanda remix competitions. Are those wallpapers still available somewhere now that the akanda site is down?

hello!
I’m proper stoked on your work - it seems like you treasure spending some time to get results - I’ve been too impatient with it all recently.

‘s nice to see some forum related stuff too ;)

Cheers fella! Dunno if I treasure spending the time on some of my stuff. It's more that I just have to to appease the perfectionist in me, I really don't have much choice!

Inspired by your notebook deviations I've gone out and got my own so I can do some sketching to and from work. It's awesome!
Just throwing little ideas down in 10 minute blasts, not worrying about the finishing too much. It's quite therapeutic for a perfectionist!

Heh, notebooks are teh awesome!

I know what you mean. If you set out to do something, you better make it good!
Mindless doodling is a way of balancing out the desire for perfection - fast, crappy scribbles, no serious thought behind it.

What are you working on at the moment?

Nothing in particular really. I'm just trying to loosen my style, find a few things that I really like drawing and see if I can develop some ideas. I'd like to work on canvas at some point this year but want to have strong enough subject matter first.

These 'Spine Bubble' characters might be an avenue worth perusing on canvas but I still need to take them further.

I'd also like to do an on-line flash comic, so I'm slowly developing ideas for that, or revisiting old ideas and seeing if they'll still work.


Oh, and I'm designing/building my own website too!

I've found myself being a bit too precious about the pocket sketchbook! Still, I'm starting to let go, a little :)

How about you, what stuff you got on the go or in the pipeline?
