Fridaily with art

[ellenmillion]

I have found the perfect brain-weasel-whomping stick: art! And not the art I need to do for a deadline, nor #Inktober, nor Sketch Fest (which is on now!), nor the replacement art for the Dotminatrix cover... nothing I NEEDED to do basically, just art for fun. laylalawlor came over this afternoon with a bag of craft supplies and the three of us (Guppy participated!) painted ornaments. The vague idea was that we'd sell them at the UWA bazaar we're doing the first weekend of November, or at least see if it was something that worked out. It was wildly fun, even if it doesn't end up being lucrative, and exactly what my lizard brain needed to calm the heck down. We made a whole pile of really awesome ornaments, and had a great time, and will be meeting again next week for round two, armed with new tools and experience.

We also go photos for the last bit of the Kickstarter video (which Layla is doing). I've cleaned up a bunch of the graphics for Kickstarter, and it's VERY close to being ready to go. I'm excited about it again, not just terrified.

No photo today, sorry!

I'm glad it helped with the brain weasels! I had so much fun -- and now we have a TON of inventory (which may or may not sell, but I have a good feeling about this; I think what we have is a good match for the market we're selling at). And I think we got much better just in the few hours we did it! Looking forward to next week!

Coloring coloring books is fun and soothing as well! Great you had an enjoyable evening. I shall proceed to Sketchfest now.
