You know, about being a paid artist... when you sell your first piece, it's a really strange experience. I much prefer trade.

Thank you. I needed to see that today.

*Snort* The flowers on the BS card cracked me up. Crass it may be, but the best descriptor as well.

Good stuff, Strike. I think we'd all be a little bit better at our art if only we had the confidence to admit to our artistry.

I, for one, am perfectly willing to accept the moniker of artist. Now, if only I could don the label of paid artist, I'd be set.

Thanks Dominique, it's actually kind of old, its an Epson Perfection 610. I just use the scanner software that comes with it, and sometimes use adobe photoshop elements to resize scans and such. I don't usually boost colors or anything like that. Someone should do a post on scanning techniques....

As a new reader, I am impressed not only with your creativity, but also with your scanner! What kind do you use? The colors and imagery come out so clear.

Thanks guys, yes I wrote this actually to remind myself, count me into the low confidence crowd. Also, it was an excuse to use masking tape in a post. :-)

"Bovine Scatalogy" is a good substitute, but I wholeheartedly endorse the sentiment. Great post.

For someone who seemed so burned out on this bloggery thing, it looks like you've worked your way through to the other side. The change in media -- from typecasting to scrapbooking -- has reinvigorated your blog. Congratulations, and many thanks from those of us who struggle with inadequate self-confidence.

2011-06-09T05:19:18.138-07:00

I concur.
Also I don't know why, but I really like the tape accents - they add to the composition.

I second this. Wholeheartedly.
