I received a cool award from a fellow blogger! Check this out:
Its the Arte y Pico award. Its now sitting on my mantle next to the Oscar and Emmy.
It was given to me by the wonderful Leslie Hawes who is talented with colored pencils and also tells very entertaining stories on her blog. Thanks Leslie!
(I'm technically supposed to choose 5 deserving people to pass the award on to, but since I never play these games and Leslie knows that, I've been absolved from passing it along. Just so you know.)
And Ranjini, another super talented colored pencil artist, gave me a mention in her latest CPSA bulletin. I was really honored, thanks Ranjini! I'm feeling a bit sheepish though because I've been "off" my colored pencils a bit lately.
(Well, that's not entirely true. I actually just finished up a big children's book project, but what I mean is that I haven't done any of my "own" colored pencil work for a spell. )
Its time to get back to the board. Sometimes paying work takes over and who can say no to that?
Speaking of CPSA, did you know they have a blog now? Its very new, but hopefully it will be a good place to check in and find out what's going on in CPSA news for all of us CPSAers.
Boy howdy, I need to do some website and blog updating. Do you all get behind too? I need to put up some new art and do some rearranging of things and weeding out. It kinda feels like cleaning a closet or something.
Today is September 1st!!!!! I made it through the summer. I'm ecstatic that we'll be into Fall soon now. No more flip flops, and I can finally start wearing sweaters again. Soup! Pretty leaves! Fires in the fireplace! Gourds! Crisp air! Did I mention Sweaters! Uncontrolled Knitting!
But first I have to go render a building for an assignment, so I'm off to make fresh coffee and do that. Everyone have a good day! (If you're here in the US you're supposedly having a Labor Day holiday, unless you're an illustrator, for whom those kinds of holidays mean pretty much nothing.

Holiday? What holiday?
(If I'm lucky when deadlines loom, I may take off a half day for Christmas... The life of a freelancer...)
You are welcome, Paula.
Get behind? Me?? Never!
