New Method For Punching Writers/Artists Block In The Face!

So I'm trying something different!  When I can't decide what projects to work on I roll for it.  This is a huge step forward for me because deciding what projects to work on decisively enough not to change my mind halfway through has always been the main problem that keeps from ever getting anything done.

I've been sketching more lately!

Of course this particular sketch is from a month or so ago but I've been sketching more lately.  Mostly concept art for stories and stuff, although I have been doing some practicing from images or real life.  At some point maybe I'll upload more of it to share with you.

Spoonflower Contest

So I entered this fabric from my store in another Spoonflower contest.

I love doing these weekly contests, I wont always have time to write about them though.

UPDATE:  Here's the results, no win but thanks and I got more favorites than last time so yay!

Pirate Monkey And Parrot

This is a design I have for sale on my Spoonflower store:

Spoonflower is a place where you can buy or sell designs as fabric, wallpaper, or gift wrap my store is here:

I just recently entered this design in a contest on spoonflower so for the next few days people can vote on which designs they like best.  The theme of the contest is 'Interspecies Animal Friendships,' and here it is:

You will probably have to scroll down through a ton of other designs before you get to it.  You can pick as many designs as you want and I would be really super grateful if you voted for my design if you like it, to help more people find out about my artwork.

UPDATE:

A super huge thank you to everyone who participated in the contest!

Here's the results:

As you can see I didn't win, however I got eight favorites on my design and more favorites on other stuff, which means that people are visiting my store, so we'll call it a win, and a super huge thank you to everyone!!  :D

Another Gimmicky But Really Awesome Feature!

So Society6 which is where I am selling my prints and stuff now, has this program you can promote other artists art on your own website and you get paid a little bit every time someone buys it through your link (10% of the base price on prints).

Like, for example if you wanted to buy this kind of really awesome print of a wolf padding along at night and you bought it through this link, I would get money for it and so would the artist:

Here's the artist's store on S6:

https://society6.com/hootbark

So I think this is kind of a really awesome feature and I might consider doing more of this sort of thing, since this way I can promote stuff that I really like as opposed to regular advertisements, where it is nothing but dreck.

Thoughts or feedback appreciated.  :)

EDIT:  No, I can't get that feature to work so if you buy anything through these links I still won't get anything.  Hootbark will though, but I guess this means I won't be trying to promote anything this way.

SECOND EDIT:  No, I think it maybe it does work after all.  I dunno their website is so confusing.

So I have a new website where I can sell prints and stuff!

I'm on Society6, where I can sell stuff as art prints or almost anything.  You can buy coffe mugs, tote bags, shower curtains, yoga pants, you name it! :D

They handle printing the designs on products and shipping it out to people and everything so I don't have to do any work except come up with the designs which is the fun part! :)

EDIT:  I forgot to put in the link to the store:  https://society6.com/jpmorrow

A California Newt

A California newt on a mossy tree trunk, that I found on a walk in Briones Regional Park in California.  I love him, he (or she) has such a silly walk! :)
