....or rather, it's already here!! Kicked my vacation off with the Rocky mountains (Jasper, Alberta) got back two days before Canada Day, did all the Proud to Be Canadian things (cuz well, I AM proud to be Canadian damnit! lol) Watched the spectacular fireworks we had and two days later, was off once again vacationing!! This time we grabbed the camper and found a nice cozy spot that I think we'll stay parked at for the rest of the summer with periodic trips home to do the whole laundry bit and restocking of food supplies

During this time of rest and relaxation I will be finishing up my last commission for the summer and then I will be practicing some fast draw sketches and maybe finishing up a few personal art projects I've had on the side burners cuz I had to put paying gigs ahead of them. There's a stargate drawing of Sam Carter that's started and is begging to be finished. A fantasy drawing of my daughter as a fairy and of course my comic book that I started! My very good friend Julie took my synopsis and ideas and put them together in an awesome story, which I must now draw! LOL I can't wait to get started on that one as well!! And of course I have a few side projects I want to do as well...like...ambitiously wanting to illustrate a certain stargate fanfic...that'll take time, years even with the way my scheduling has been going!! But I do one day want to get to it just cuz I wanna. The fanfic was so awesome I felt it needs to be illustrated fully! One day I hope.....one day....

I hope everyone has a GREAT summer! I will post new drawings as I can. I have one but haven't scanned it yet...DOH! As soon as it is, I'll be sure to post.

And for everyone who actually sat through this and read it, thank you for sticking with me and my art and for all your comments and fave's. They really are so very appreciated and always ALWAYS a treat to read!!
