I started using <a href="https://www.instagram.com/jlou.art/" target="_blank">instagram</a> a few months ago. It's a lot easier, but this blog is still more personal. :) I wish there was an easier way to share images from instagram to blogger, like I recently tried on <a href="http://jlou-art.tumblr.com/" target="_blank">tumblr</a>. I'm lazy sometimes ^^; Also, I'm new to these things, so trying to keep up.</div>

Something I've been practicing for a while. Since I'm still not very good with perspective, I've decided to block in props, interiors, etc. using sketchup, and then design and paint over them. I know, I know, you purists you, settle down. Eventually I'll use it less. I actually find modeling pretty fun anyway. A huge headache in the beginning, but it's very useful. Also, since we have a <a href="http://richard-doble.blogspot.com/2012/04/got-my-3d-printer.html" target="_blank">3D printer</a>, maybe I'll design some miniature things and airbrush on top as giveaways or something :D</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;">One last thing...</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><a href="http://richard-doble.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Rich</a> and I are planning on making tutorial vids on YT. Nothing fancy, more like a vlog style, covering anything we encounter on our daily/weekly art adventures. It'll be fun for us and useful to you! Hopefully it'll be entertaining too. Best part is, they'll be FREE, woohoo! (Rhyming is fun, lol). We're really looking forward to helping out those in need, and generally share<span style="font-size: xx-small;"> </span>how we do things, to the curious ones ;) </span></div>

...Or just the one, with plastic (because Robin Eley is just ridiculously amazing with it, very inspiring). Thought I should try it out for the new year as a first challenge :D</div>

so you can tell how much FUN this thing was x_x</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: x-small;">I'll be watching the Avengers with the talented twins, <a href="http://juliayurtsevart.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Julia</a> and Irit, tomorrow (or I guess later today lol). I haven't kicked it with them in a year, so I'm super excited! Art jam, a movie, and good eats in Frisco-- YAAYUH! I'll be at the spring show next week too, (apparently at 2801 Leavenworth?), the comic class on Friday, and the adv perspective class on Saturday, so I'll see the rest of you there! HOORAY!</span></div>
