The good thing about climbing mountains is you'll come back with great abs and biceps. :) Good luck!

In response to your last comment, I pretty much do most of my illustration work in photoshop. Rather than draw, I plot points to create the shapes I want. After that it's just a matter of filling the shapes with color and texture. I hope that answers your question.<br />keep up the awesome work!michael robertsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10824715858579567620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8461198241914317094.post-27668775373334659462010-02-24T13:56:28.733-08:002010-02-24T13:56:28.733-08:00Oh see I was typing so fast and I have been sittin...Oh see I was typing so fast and I have been sitting here on my bum most of the day and I'm spelling words all wrong.

Well tomorrow we are suppose to get a ton of snow. I'm done with snow right now. I have my work to do so I won't complain. Snow is good!! It cleans the earth and air. Okay, thanks so much for your kind words Shirley. I need them right now. SO much to do and seem that time goes sooooooo fast. I love being busy. I really do. I love doing this thing. It's awesome. Most books take about a year to do and most of the wonderful books that I am working on are taking less than 6 months to get the work done. It's a lot of work even when you are working on your computer. I would love to have a year to do a book he he he! So day. Anyway, I just had to do a couple of fixes to the Talluah book before it's sent off to the printer. I just did them and now we are officially finished. Everyone things that I spent time talking to Tori Spelling and all. I spoke to her once is all he he he! I worked very close to the publishers and art director is all. I have learned a lot and I have also learned that each publisher is different some leave you to figure it out and then make comments, other are hands on and want to see each and every piece before you work on them. I need to find my own rhythm when working with them. What are you up to? Enough about me!!!! What are you working on? How is it going?? How is the site coming along??? I know so many questions. I want to know though. Hit me back when you have some time.<br />Hugs to you and the girls,<br />NesterVanessa Brantley Newtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00103644990786273164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8461198241914317094.post-43860671156378756812010-02-24T11:43:39.070-08:002010-02-24T11:43:39.070-08:00I love your work too, so delicate and charming ! :...I love your work too, so delicate and charming ! :))Cendrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17646436626020376301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8461198241914317094.post-65827082478315408562010-02-24T06:31:21.823-08:002010-02-24T06:31:21.823-08:00Beautiful, good luck with all your projects Shirle...Beautiful, good luck with all your projects ShirleyNicky Linzeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01596361210400435569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8461198241914317094.post-57225258035340515362010-02-24T01:29:48.696-08:002010-02-24T01:29:48.696-08:00OMG! your work is sooooo amazingly beautiful!!
