Bring it on Christmas! I'm Ready.

Oh yeah. I can take you.

This mood is mostly fueled by hormones and an unhealthy dose of coffeenog (coffee with sugar and Silk soy nog) but I feel I can take on the holidays. I almost finished two of the paintings I'm giving as gifts, and still managed to work on the vector for Pocketful.

Vector so far:



One finished present of my adorable sister when she was a babything:



Retail and the pressure to paint things my relatives will actually want are not getting me down, thus the triumphant mood. I can do this guys. Totally. I even don't feel worried about the illustration series my mind decided it would think up at the busiest time of the year. Even if I don't proceed with the series at least I have one cool idea sketched and ready to start vectoring after Christmas. More on that idea later.

I have pretty full shifts of work for the next couple days so hopefully my next day off will be this productive and if this mood wanes it will return. The holidays almost always get me down, but this year will be different, I'll spend little to no time at home, but still be able to see relatives and hang with my sister and the whole time I'll have my significant other with me which is the best way to keep my mood up (when I'm hyper I tend towards run-on sentences, sorry).

So, in conclusion, bring it holiday mood disorder, retail craziness, family gift pressure, I'm ready.

Christmas can be amazing! Your dad is just lame.

Also that flower and your sisters dress look super dooper nice.

Thanks, I think it turned out better then I hoped, the photo wasn't very clear on some things.

Yes, yes he is. But crazy people that threaten you (like a woman who threatened a co-worker to follow her out to the parking lot and kill her) because of Christmas shopping, are another reason holidays usually suck in my experience.
