How to use this Page

I was finally able to set up my Ustream site this week, so grab your pens and papers kids, because I’ll be cranking out new shows before you know it. I’m hoping to get my first episode up sometime very soon and I’ve got the perfect project in mind. I think you guys are going to love it. I’ll give you a hint….it’s going to have something to do with that image over there to the left.

I’ll be posting my Ustream schedule on this site to start with. Once I’ve got everything set up and running I will also try to list on a brand new fantastic website brought to you by the very talented Dani Jones from Dani Draws. She’s gone ahead and put together a new website featuring artists Ustream listings. It’s a great collection of super artists. I’ve seen a few of the artists listed there and they are all extremely talented as well. Great collection. Please check them out if you can.

I’d also like to thank Dani for the handy Ustream  tutorial she put together. It explains in simple terms how to set up a Ustream show and even has pics to help you with everything you need to know…. Thanks Dani.

I was so excited when Mike R Baker told me that I'd "Made his day" via my blog. This is a great compliment as I frequent his blogs myself. He is a fantastic illustrator and always surprises me with his illustration friday contributions which are often completed in gouache at lightening speed! Mike also designed this wonderful new logo for the award which I find adorable (I couldn't resist passing it on...)

So, here I am passing the award on to five wonderful people who's blogs I check everyday (I'm not kidding, I'm rather addicted). Thank you to:

• Dani Draws (this blog is incredible. Dani is talented and has detailed tutorials... so CHECK IT OUT!)
• Amanda Woodward (A tremendous source of inspiration both from her life and her art. I consider her a good friend and am lucky to have met her - she's from my home town as well. Actually, to be perfectly honest, Amanda helped inspire me to quit my full time job to illustrate for a living and I've never looked back!)
•Chrissy Fanslau (Her perseverance and dedication is ultra inspiring!)
• The Daily Coyote (Just check it out, it's awesome!)
• CutewithChris.com (um, yeah, Cute with Chris is so darn funny)

Dani sure DOES draw. Look at her website. She has a video of her digital painting process. I found it in Sherry's blog links...another great place to peruse.
