so, just as i was cozying into the idea that my summer was organised, something had to come along & ruin it, right? my summer job plans have fallen through, but instead of sitting moping, i'm trying to take advantage of it.
asides from looking for a new job, i'm going to attempt (key word being attempt) to make money from the only thing i'm any good at (art, by the way). so far these plans include looking into a DA print account (someone showed interest) or setting up prints myself (probably more fun & interesting). also, selling work, be it past work or requests such as flyers, banners, drawings, photos, etc. i have an etsy account, but i'm still figuring that out. i also ought to get another website since my old one ran out. you get my drift.
if it doesn't work, i always have my new job search to keep me busy! but if anyone has any comments, tips or thoughts, let me know or note me. we'll see how it goes!

in other lack-of-work related news, on sunday we finished the world record comic attempt. it stands at 496 A2 panels & 297 meters long; if there are no complications, we'll beat the current record holders (disney!) by almost 50 meters! & if not, it was a fun weekend to be a part of.
today i started painting a primary school mural with two girls in my class. it's quite theraputic to just sit outside & paint in bright colours after a hectic few weeks. i'll take photos when that's finished.
apart from all that, & a few others plans, my summer is a blank canvas! so i reckon it's time i started painting it (see what i did there? pure cheese).
