So Kikibee was awesome as always. Such a relaxing weekend, I love it! The first day I was feeling really tired and beat, just from a long week at work and getting used to the routine. Plus I think I had overslept, haha. And suddenly being fed so much good food after the first night turned me into a food coma zombie. Yes, food coma is a term. [link] I don't know if that link will work, but look it up :) Anyway, we had some amazing food there :D

Also lots of arting went on, obviously! I only actually finished one piece, the commission I posted the other day. But I got well into starting almost all of my other commissions! I updated my list of art that I'm doing down there, too :)

Please note that I am no longer taking commissions for a *very* long time.. I need to catch up on my own artwork. I seem to have lost track or sight of what it is I actually do and make when I am left on my own. I feel like I need to re-define my own work and see what it is that I want to do with my practice in general. So once these works are finished, besides the Stanley Brambles project and the odd gift here and there, I will only be doing art for myself and for research/study purposes. I may open up for one commission a month, but that is only depending on if there is any demand for it.

I think that's all for now <3

Hope the research goes well, then. You do have a fabulous gift, obviously, as I've always thought and it's been really fun watching you dabble in varying ways. There were times when I thought your style was going to take off in a completely different direction only to suddenly come springing back to your old comforts for a bit, then off you'd go again. Still, I'm equally curious as to what you're going to do.
To be honest, in high school, I never really gave it much thought. I found you wicked talented already but never really went "Gee, I wonder what Kina's going to do with that?" since Kina-Ink wasn't going to make money, obviously, and living off convention commissions wouldn't do it either. I mean, with Kimmeh, I always knew she'd do animation, but I'd never thought of teh Kina! I think you'd be fun for conceptual work, though, and public murals of such beauty and colour with your stamp on it is something else, too... Anyways, pardon the novel. Thoughts just poured out... Either way, I'm sure you'll be awesome, darlin'!

Just Greg, thanks.

Glad to hear you had fun.

Um I don't know what else to say o.o

Hey! long time since I've heard from you! And I do lovej the insight :) It's always fun to see other people's perspective on things. To be honest, I'd love it if KinaInk could someday make money, but I don't think it could ever make enough for me to live off of. I could potentially do merchandise.. or maybe tutorials? I really have no idea! But I know I want to keep working at it. Having a full time job definitely impedes my progress, but hey, we all gotta eat. Personally I'd like to head towards pure illustration, but that will take a lot of discipline in not falling back into old habits.. we shall see :)

Nothing gets the creative juices flowing than a getaway with some friends and just do nothing but brainstorm and create. i gotta do my own version of a Kikibee but for engineering and come up all sorts of wacky stuff.
