If it is Broke…..

moleskine sketches

I seem to have spent most of this week trying to fix broken things, including my scanner which is why I’ve had to switch to taking digital captures of my Moleskine. In retrospect, this has been a Good ThingTM. The repro on my camera (ouch… I paid a lot more than that for it) is far better than anything my Canoscan can ever manage. It has particular issues with graphite – rendering rather nasty pixellated strokes.

Ever noticed how less conventionally ‘beautiful/handsome’ people are often more interesting to draw?

I have.

How Long?

Ya know.. I think this is the longest I’ve been absent since I started blogging in late 2003…

Believe it or not this sketch is the only thing I have as well. Yup… since before I got the Macbook I haven’t managed to put pen to tablet / sketchbook or anything else for that matter. So what have I been doing? Well not that much really, it’s just that a lot of stuff has been getting in the way and I’ve also been doing a lot of thinking. Too much probably..

So apologies to anyone who has left comments that have been left unanswered, ditto emails. Normal service may be resumed in a week or two, I hope. I guess I always feel that as I have nothing spectacularly interesting to say, unless I have artwork to post there doesn’t seem much point!

Anyhoo. K2 0.9 is out, and I haven’t upgraded since r167. So I’m going to try and implement it over the weekend at some point. But I suspect it’s going to take me a while to hack back in all the changes I made. *sigh.
