The Artists who shaped my art -

First I have to say the technique I use today is all Mark. The high contrast colors and thick inking was something he did back in the day - when we first met. He used to do little artworks of different epinions members. Including Mark P. (fallenjesusboy)

Alphonse Mucha and Jonathon Earl Bowser, are the awesome. If I won the lottery and could get one frivolous thing - it would be a commissioned piece by Jonathon. Alphonse Mucha art is all over my kitchen.

I have been on an art high lately. Working on it anytime I can get a chance - the downside - less time for the internet, and my 365 - once again trying to find the balance.

So, Libra Belly Dancer is finally finished. It feels like it took forever.

I don't know when I will start on another one. I find that I am not a very disciplined artist. It's all on a whim - I just get a bust of inspiration, then it may fizzle out for a bit. I wish I could be one of those people who could just draw anything asked of them right then and there - but that's just not me.

You can see Libra on my website she is also in my shop.

I haven't drawn a new belly dancer since before Anson was born. My zodiac series only has 4 left, I really need to get back to that. Plus like 4 or 5 belly dancers want me to draw them. I've told them all I will, but haven't set any time lines.

Today I started drawing again. I was afraid after so many months of not doing it that I had lost it. It seems I haven't - so I am now working on Belly Dancer Libra.
