Woo! Finally getting this video up! A bit of advice... Windows Movie Maker does NOT like having to edit a four hour video down to a 9 minute speed art video. So if you're recording an art live stream, cut that video down. Take a break after 2 hours or something. XP
Me thinks it's time to get my hands on a copy of Adobe Premiere. And update my graphics card... and stuff.
But rent and bills, ya know. So I'll keep chugging away at the store jobs and working on freelance commissioned work when I'm not there. And, of course, continue making videos.
Not sure what this sleep thing is anymore... or free time. XP
Part 2 coming this week! Look forward to it!

Next stage of the Kyota and Zurui commission.
MARKER PAINTING! Well, technically mixed media, as I also use colored pencils and white gel pen, and possibly soon acrylic paints for fireworks and all that jazz.
A commissioned order for DJ Kyota and his mate, Zurui. Their fursonas, Kyota (laying down), and Zurui (sitting up) on the roof of the David L. Lawrence Convention Center, in Pittsburg, PA (USA), watching a beautiful fireworks display (to be added in the final paints).
My weapons of choice here?
~Prismacolor markers
~Copic sketch markers
~Derwent colored pencils
~Lowe Cornell colored pencils
~white gel pen
Cool bit of news I discovered while working on this? Prismacolor and Copic markers work BEAUTIFULLY on inks printed from an HP printer that uses HP Vivera inks. No bleeding, so shmears... SUCH A TIME AND MONEY SAVER! I will no longer have to run to Staples to have the Copy Center peeps print my digital inks or digitally cleaned traditional inks onto card stock via their dry ink copy machines.
Now to see if this works with watercolors and Dr. Martin PH dyes.
Again, the pencils were done all in ArtRage Studio, then non-repro blued in Adobe Photoshop CS3, and printed onto 11 x 8.5 inch cardstock. Inks done with Speedball Super Black india ink and brush.

So, it's less than a week until Kawaii Land now, dahlinks! Come join us at Stage 48, July 25th, 6 - 10pm, in Manhattan, New York City!
I'll be selling my arts, and possibly a nice, big ole fluffy yarn tail, AND some custom resculpted ponies. But I do still need help covering the cost of my table!
Every $15 ticket purchased knocks some of the cost off my table, so think about it this way. You get to help a poor, starving artist out (this fluffy Bee here), AND you get to have a blast at an amazing cute fashion and art show in MANHATTAN.
Remember to purchase your tickets through Bee-Hive Studios!

So my 23K gold leafing mini-bundle from Golden Leaf Products ( http://www.goldenleafproducts.com ) arrived in the mail today! Yay!
I wanted to be able to use a loose leaf gold leafing that had actual gold in it, not the cheap stuff sold at most big box arts and crafts stores that's 90% copper and 10% zinc. Just a touch picky about what I use on my pieces, and when I say that it's gold leaf that's on the horn of my BerryBerry Qulin custom resculpt, it can be the truth, which SHOULD help up the value of her.
Just have to pick up a bottle of shift at work this week with my employee discount and a coupon. Shift is the adhesive used in leafing. Until I can pick it up, though, I'm going to study the daylights out of more leafing tutorials here on YT. And make sure that my fan brush is SUPER clean.

So you just set up a webcam to capture your work like that? I've always entertained the idea myself 'cause I looooove watching ppl digital-work directly over LiveStream, but I was never…
