The Popular Kid

Well, this is a strange new turn of events. I've gotten emails and guestbook comments about my clay dragons before, but they've been sporadic and random. However, in the past week, I've gotten three serious dragon requests. Two of them are as presents for daughters, and two are based off of a series of dragon books written by Chris D'Lacey that I've never heard of before. Apparently it involves small clay dragons. XD

Since it's the end of term, things are winding down, and although I still have ridiculous amounts of work to complete before term's out, I'm quite interested in getting back to working on dragons. I was thinking of taking all my clay stuff home over winter break, but perhaps this is an opportunity to start early. I actually completed a transaction with one of the requesters, as they wanted a dragon that I had on hand, so sending that out tomorrow will be an adventure. This makes me wonder how I would go about offering myself out for dragon commissions on a slightly more regular basis. It's not quite so easy, now that my mom's closed down the toy store. Guess I can put something up on my DA account. Or maybe on FAC, although most of the people there are young and poor. ^^;

A bunch of us on the FAC forums got together to do a Secret Santa art exchange thingy... I'm looking forward to it - I know who I was assigned, so now I just need to take the time to sit down and draw something. I feel bad for whoever pulled my name, as most people there don't know me all that well. I'm not a terribly vocal member. ._. Sucks to be them, but it might also suck to be me. We'll see...

I went to a craft fair today, which filled me once again with dreams of attending a craft fair as a vendor. Someday... Some way... Heh. Maybe I should be more worried about finding myself a job after I graduate.

While I'm on the topic of being extremely artsy at present, I guess I might as well stick in a link to my latest original characters. More dark elves, I know, but I am so very fond of them. ^^; Assassins for the win! That's the first picture I've colored in months...
