Description
just did some fast sketching last night and my boyfriend decided to get in on the fun! i know he's a good artist just by looking at his stick figures! but that's all he'll draw for me right now...i've never seen his other drawings yet..i'm hoping he'll start drawing and posting his pictures and photographs on DA one day! we had a good laugh doing this!the other characters are ones created by my very beautiful and talented cousin she's the one who got me into drawing anime style from the very beginning and she's been my biggest inspiration since!
i usually dont dedicate sketches to people because i like to dedicate things that i put a lot of time and effort in, but i'm going to make an exception in this case ;D this is dedicated to as they are my rendition of her wonderful characters - kiki, kei, jei, and kuma
this is also dedicated to since my boyfriend is one of her best friends
dont worry! this wont be your actual dedication piccys! you will each get your own - one that i'll spend lots of time on and it will be inked and colored!
i'm sorry i've been MIA here lately, but i want to wish you all a wonderful friday!
kiki, kei, jei, and kuma characters copyrighted by
stick figures and other drawings copyrighted by my boyfriend!
*oh noes! you can barely see anything...i think you have to download it to get the actual size... T - T

yup! japanese speaking cat~~! my boyfriend has a good sense of humor!

i hope your friday and weekend go great too! any plans? i'm going fishing again! i'm sorry i havent responded back to your other messages - i'll try my best to finish up all my work fast so i'll have more online time!

Thanks, I missed you too, mondai ga arimasen
Yeah, I have to say, it's the first Japanese talking stick-cat I've seen, pretty original Now I love the phrase "stick-cat"
Oh, good idea, that's something I'll have to try, I'm pretty bad at poses and original clothing XD
Friday's been and gone XD (only by 8 minutes^_^) as for the weekend, I'll be working Sunday so only Sat off, but I have no plans, so it'll be draw time!
Oh, you're going fishing again! Cool! Hope you've been practising your knots Good luck, hope you have fun!!
It's okay, you said you'd be busy this week, and you must have been right, hope you get a bit of time to relax today

thank you for all your well wishes! you always send such nice comments!
fishing was great! i almost caught a really good fish! one that's good for eating! but he broke my line-he fought very hard and was preety strong! i caught more fish than i did last time, about 7! and the last one i hooked was a fairly big humhumu - hawaii's state fish...very preety ;D but i felt bad for catching him ;D i'll try to send you pictures soon!
i hope you enjoyed your weekend! even if it was only one day you had off...got lots of drawing done i hope!

You're more than welcome!
I'm glad you enjoyed the fishing, sorry to hear about the one that got away (I've always wanted to use that expression in context XD) Whoa, must have been pretty strong to break the line
I found one picture of a "humhumu", they look beautiful, the colours are so pretty
Haha, yeah it was a short weekend, but I enjoyed it, got some drawing (and some CG'ing ) done. Now I'm on holiday for a week
lots of drawing time
got a big drawing to-do list
Hope the rest of the week isn't too bad for you, and that you have another great weekend!

Hmmmm I just looked at the large version. Mitch's stick figures are kind of violent ^_^''' ha ha just kidding. Sorry, I hope he doesn't mind me referring to him as "Mitch". Maybe "Mit" or "Mo"? Heh heh.... "Mo"

mitchell used to draw dragon ball too! but he wont draw them for me ;D i also heard from that he's a great photographer but he doesnt have any of his pictures to show me...i'm hoping he'll start up with his art hobbies someday!
i used your old sketches as my reference! they were a big help! except i dont like how the guys turned out...jei's eyes look funny...
i had so much fun doing this! i always loved your characters!!! remember the teenage mutant ninja turtle girlfriends you created? are you drawing more kiki and kei?

Hi! Yup, I'm currently working on more Kiki and Kei. I tend to draw Kei more because I like her design better but I like the newer design of Kiki now too

thank you again for the cute crochet mushrooms!!!! i love them so much! i'm going to take a picture and show ! have you been making more keychains lately too? everyone i showed them to loved them so far! i may be able to get some customers on maui for you! and they opened up a new japanese store called ume-ya next to 24 hour fitness - run by the old owner of shirokiya - i was thinking you might want to see about selling there too - they dont have much keychains, and they dont have much of the cutsie ones! ;D

Hi! I'm good. I have been busy at school but I find time to log on everyday
I'm glad you liked the mushrooms! They were fun to make. I probably won't have time to set up shop for a while though since I can't find the time to crochet or do crafts.
Don't worry, I know you are really busy. I still have to revamp my journal! I'm looking at other's and want to create my own header images and stuff. Anyway, take cares and talk to you later!!!

i havent made my reservations yet but it looks like the plan is i'm flying into oahu on friday the 2nd around 7 pm - the band is going to be in kapolei that day so i'm just going to hang down at the pagoda until they come back saturday i'll probably be out the entire day for their competition and sunday looks like its a free day! i'll let you know as plans are made!
i'm sorry you havent had much time to work on things...i havent had much time too lately...i didnt even get to finish mel's birthday piccy! i'm stuck on something...i need a good japanese background picture for a reference - perferably something with flowers or fish ;D do you know of any sites off hand?
i've been wanting to change my journal too! but i just dont have the skills to customize it more!
are you having a good day today? not too stressed i hope!

Oh, I'm going to Maui the weekend you're hear But I guess that's ok since I'm sure you'll be busy with the band group. I'm leaving Thursday night.
I'm loving the art you're doing! You're really developing and it is so exciting! Please keep it up!
As for references, Hmmmm I'll go look some things off. Try google Japanese or Chinese Stencils, or maybe Japanese washi paper. These are nice ideas for floral motifs. Sometimes I love just drawing flowers and foliage. People are fun but sometimes I need to try different things *(thus the fruity heads ).
Anyway, still am waiting to work on my journal. Maybe some weekend when I don't have an assignment due on Monday!
Anyway, I'm doing well, school is really interesting, just keeps me busy. Not too stressed

i'm sad we're going to miss each other...but youre right, i'll probably be out with the band most of the time, friday night is preety much my only free time i think...i'll try to take a trip to oahu when i have nothing planned!
thank you for the advice for the japanese references! i found what i needed when i googled washi, i never thought about that!

It's a very fun pic you have there! Yeah, scanning from pencil or very fine pen doesn't quite pick up all of the details.
And you would have laughed if you'd run into us at Ben Franklin last night. I bought nearly $100 in craft supplies! I'm going to be very, very busy!
It's quieted down here in minami-land just a bit, but it's still busier than I'm used to. Guess I'll just have to get used to this now. I'm getting excited about my 1K pageview thing. Looks like it might happen on my brithday, so I'll have two things to celebrate on that day! I hope that's what happens because I'm really antsy to put up the crochet project I made especially for the occasion. I'm doing a few more minis to add to the collection, too, since they've been very popular! Mom came up with a couple of ideas last night and I came up with a few more myself. Plus, I have to make a teddy bear for a friend's birthday next Tuesday, so my weekend is booked solid!

oh wow! you have been busy! i wish i could have seen you at ben franklin! i dont think i've ever bought that much from there! if i had gotten the set of prismacolor watercolor pencils the set alone would have been that much!
i'm the one getting all antsy to see what you'll be posting and making next!!!
hmmm, your 1K may happen this weekend! fridays are always slower, things usually pick up after that!

I'm really hoping my 1K happens on Monday, so I can post the surprise on my birthday! It'll be like a double birthday present for me!
I've done worse than that at Ben Franklin before. This time I was buying all sort of pink fuzzy yarn for my Melville commission, and not all of those are inexpensive. He's going to look so cute, though.
