Then right around that time, the hard drive that I had been storing the drawing for my challenge on crashed and I lost practically all of them except for the ones I've uploaded here, kind of a bummer but I'll make sure to go back and post the ones I was able to recover off the hard drive. I plan on re-tackling that challenge soon and finishing it.
The summer was crazy with projects I did. I created a couple websites, one being for my dad who is a musician and just got out on his own. I helped him create a website for himself and he recently put out a new CD. I'm pretty proud of him for getting his own CD out there and giving it a shot. If you want to take a look, check out www.davewermers.com or on YouTube and if you like the music, we have CDs people can buy. [Sorry, shameless plug for my dad. :)]. Also, I did the artwork/design for the CD that is on the cover and inside.
Besides that I had a couple other projects, a couple videos I helped with a couple other websites I worked on designing. I did some personal design work, but not a whole lot there I can share quite yet. Then in September, school started up again, stealing even more of my time.
As far as completed work, I did a painting for my wife (fiance at the time) for her birthday in August. She loves beauty and the beast, so I did this painting for her from the stained glass in the beginning of the Disney version.
Finally, throughout the whole time, I've been helping in planning and creating practically everything for my wedding, which was October 6th. We made almost all of the decorations and the food ourselves for the wedding and it turned out amazing. We had it outside in the fall, with the leaves changing color and a fountain in the background, it was beautiful.
Anyway, one last thing. Next month is National Novel Writing Month. Basically, starting November 1st, you are challenged to write a 50,000 word novel. Comes out to about an average of 1667 words a day. That is about 2 and 3/4 pages a day. Seems like a ton, but I think it will be doable. I plan on doing this and will try to post my progress on this as I go. I may end up posting it, I may not. I want to, but part of me doesn't think it will be good enough to post, we shall see if I get over that.
Anyway... Thanks for reading, I know it was a lot more words then artwork, but for how long I was gone, just wanted to throw out an update. Thanks again and have a fantastic day!
