Under Construction: Awaiting a New Design!

My blog is now under construction, I'm trying to redesign it to look more professional because I'm pursuing the greeting card and illustration business. =D I thought with less busy-ness it would turn more focus on the actual art work displayed here. Right now I'm drawing up a banner, so soon it will look less boring! =D
I got my background from Shabbyblogs for anyone who's interested. And while you're browsing if you get the time you should look at a post on Penney's blog about public schools in America! Infact, you should just read her whole blog, it's inspiring!

IF:Breakfast

Forget balanced, I just want a breakfast that will keep me awake!

IF: Diary

When I was little-okay younger, whenever I say I was little people say, what's changed?- so when I was younger, we did extensive studying on the civil war of America. The first thing that came to mind when I saw the word Diary I thought of a soldier writing in his journal. (I'm told boys don't write in diaries, they write in journals and get very offended if you call it a diary.)
So I did this picture, it's mostly color pencil, which I pretty much suck at. Some of it is ink. And I know my trees look like something a little kid drew...=/ But, I just need practice! =D

What a bad scan, my printer sucks really. Hopefully you can see this well enough! I just used pencil. No paint, no ink. Just pencil. However since the scan was so miserable and I was trying to decide anyway, I think I'll redo this in ink and gouache. Maybe. We'll see!

Here it is! Fully colored in pen and ink. What do you think? I think he looks friendlier this way.
