I'm awake at an ungodly hour, because I'm having pre-exam jitters. I finished my database yesterday, and my exam is tomorrow.

So I've been trying to cure my jitters by making some new art. Yes, I made something new, and all I needed was a challenge of providing Magnificent Seven banners for the 2009 Recathon. I made eight total: one for each of the boys, and one of all seven.

You think so? :iz happy: But I just realized I forgot the year! It's late though, and I will do that tomorrow - too tired now.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Thank you, I'm glad you think so. That seems to be the general consensus! I haven't seen the others so I don't know yet.

I hope you will, and I hope I will too! I have an exam tomorrow, and still more to come, not to mention classes to teach and to follow. This year we have a grueling schedule. But I'll do my best!

Thank you! :hugs: I struggled with the words, I didn't know if I should include them or not, but my muse said it's this way or no way. And we have to listen to our muses, don't we?

I'm just glad she's back!

Yes! We must listen to the muse. Does this mean you're getting over the arter's block? That you're getting back to creating such wonderful pieces of art?

My muse is screaming at me these days, which is a good thing because I've missed the screaming ;)

Apparently so. :) I cannot tell you how happy I am about that. Wait, I don't have to - you've been there.

I'm so stressed right now that I need to create, it takes my mind off stressful things. I'm slowly easing back into drawing/painting, and I plan to do a watercolor painting of Ezra, then the rest of the boys. That will take time.

In the mean time, I will be doing more digital art.

This requires a massive hug!

*massive hugs you*

That's wonderful! I hope you continue to share what you create! I think you're very talented and I would love to see your artwork - all types of artwork!

:hugs you right back:

I know, isn't it? :D I'm so excited I can't stop grinning like a loon. I'm thinking about keeping this place Mag7 related, and posting other art at my Dreamwidth account.

Will you be posting your art as 'friends locked' on Dreamwidth? I won't be able to see them will I. May have to get an account for such events :)

I can get a free one like Live Journal ... can't I?

Sure, you can get a free one. Let me see if I have an invite code for you, if you want one.

But you can use it with OpenID for commenting, so you don't have to create a Dreamwidth account if you don't want to. And you already have an OpenID, simply by having a Yahoo and/or a LiveJournal account. When you comment, a window shows up, you enter some basic details and that should enable you to post on DW, have a reading page and follow comms.

And no, I won't be posting it under friends lock, just like I'm not posting Mag7 fanart under one. I want it to be accessible to anyone. The only stuff I post under friends lock is personal.
