I've really enjoyed poking around your blog as well. I actually do draw a fair bit these days, but a) My scanner died, b) Cartooning is surprisingly more difficult (for me, anyway) than still life drawing, and c) I have not worked up the courage to display what I generously consider to be mediocre work. Fortunately I enjoy following the "those that can't do, teach" model for now. Of course I can't teach either, but I'll be damned if that's gonna stop me! I've found that blogging about comics has been really inspiring. I get to work on my writing skills, become a far better artist than I ever thought I'd be (then again, I did set the bar rather low) and have a lot of fun while I'm at it. It's an exciting thing to feel as though you've unlocked a hidden well of creativity. Stumbling across great blogs such as your own has heightened my interest in the world of comics and cartooning. For better or for worse, I'll probably be around for a while. Cheers. PS - Seriously, you guys just pretend to like Vegemite to screw with the rest of us, don't you? Hey, thanks for stopping by!
