Life update! I got a new job! I quit my old job! I have more time to make art! YAY!! :D
Anyway, I'm gearing up for <a href="http://www.anotheranimecon.com/">Another Anime Con</a> in October, finishing up some commissions (see below!), and doing a little painting just for me as well (see above!) I recently finished reading The Hunger Games Trilogy, and the painting above is a tribute to the main character, Katniss. It was a great story! You should go read it now.

Other big news is the Sailor Moon manga is being re-released in the states! Super exciting. I went to the midnight release party earlier this month with a bunch of other crazy moonies. We are all very pleased to see Sailor Moon back in stores :)
Other than that, I am working on my Sketchbook Project for 2012. My theme this year is "Heroes and Villians". Here are some pages from that:

Not being a web designer, this has been a lot more difficult and time consuming than I'd like it to be. Also, the internet if full of fun distracting things that I would much rather spend my time on. But, I am finally getting somewhere. <br /><br />I'm trying to simplify, because my current site is all over the place. I'm also cutting out the "Illustration" part of my website- despite the fact that that is what I got my degree in... I would rather focus on my comic work- not only on my website, but in my real life as well. I've been spending too much time not doing anything, so it's time to get back to business. And I think this will be a good start!<br /><br />So, wish me luck on completing this undertaking in a timely manner! I hope you guys will like it when I am finally finished!J.Sheahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15403968557422431003noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241676689576793159.post-80968286126828514012011-05-02T15:33:00.010-04:002011-05-02T15:45:28.131-04:00Anime Boston Recap<center><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_blYRsaTyi7sJ7DS4BjP6NWYjUrRNUfJjc-Ei2P3PrnkRBZtSWuOq20SmRbcAtVMIIXRNwoMIXUwOO0i4he7aoqdDyzy9fr0kspEu7dmBY_aeio0GsVLOAETFqK7Ka56tTDU1rkk2BECs/s1600/theglow.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 223px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_blYRsaTyi7sJ7DS4BjP6NWYjUrRNUfJjc-Ei2P3PrnkRBZtSWuOq20SmRbcAtVMIIXRNwoMIXUwOO0i4he7aoqdDyzy9fr0kspEu7dmBY_aeio0GsVLOAETFqK7Ka56tTDU1rkk2BECs/s320/theglow.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602205168454847042" /></a> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAKGy3mGX0Tn_0g4jge99VVjep32PhCHKBVb1XJ46oJ1Ow1i86GswAl-zTIjKRU3zfD7HFabRBI77g59H8_lODwGaUqXki_y1uqHO81hKkNGC2LwOaJ_RRG89oNQ2bwwlpBpCFHtf96nMX/s1600/rei.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 225px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAKGy3mGX0Tn_0g4jge99VVjep32PhCHKBVb1XJ46oJ1Ow1i86GswAl-zTIjKRU3zfD7HFabRBI77g59H8_lODwGaUqXki_y1uqHO81hKkNGC2LwOaJ_RRG89oNQ2bwwlpBpCFHtf96nMX/s320/rei.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602205119199312386" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk9kiqJQ8KxG0Z2ONiyg4q5AfspeUDNuFn06jdeH9Pqsmr_sgCbD-MF0Z1-l_GuF4-HDLCZAd77SFO4QGVUURzfSv-W6kEVy1Ib-1TR98AdiSnyMsigRBEuJFIzjWpHUmiZOtZC5XAk8AO/s1600/neptune_uranus.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 230px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk9kiqJQ8KxG0Z2ONiyg4q5AfspeUDNuFn06jdeH9Pqsmr_sgCbD-MF0Z1-l_GuF4-HDLCZAd77SFO4QGVUURzfSv-W6kEVy1Ib-1TR98AdiSnyMsigRBEuJFIzjWpHUmiZOtZC5XAk8AO/s320/neptune_uranus.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602205064366269314" /></a> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZAsNxZWBOw3TViBiWcAQZw07HaRVejRNiESlorINBuoadXkfTnNfcAAfIG7V9A7aZImUVp8fqghHkzQ5QdJZmK3vFh5AoniiUyIuyJRwzfGDSARaOi_u0pxeS9L96ZxWUr59rbh0cVu93/s1600/mkr.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 226px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZAsNxZWBOw3TViBiWcAQZw07HaRVejRNiESlorINBuoadXkfTnNfcAAfIG7V9A7aZImUVp8fqghHkzQ5QdJZmK3vFh5AoniiUyIuyJRwzfGDSARaOi_u0pxeS9L96ZxWUr59rbh0cVu93/s320/mkr.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602205004775100978" /></a></center><br /><br />So Anime Boston is over. I had such a blast! Shared my table with the lovely and talented Kori Michele. I always forget how awesome conventions are until I get to do them again. AB is HUGE and awesome! I spent just about as much money as I made, but I'm perfectly ok with that!<br /><br />Another down side to the convention is that I now want to spend all my time playing Final Fantasy VIII. I blame these lovely folks for that:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjt-nAwfPWYIgHIccNxiBD5_3Y6hBrDEoB4HhyphenhyphenuBxyUU-kqLDr3FcU5PE_l-vH91_gomzawG2rAoRBojS74-ks-JTjNsOJYlnrk8EBTKxeFUYdvrTzoX5navdpO2PDBzxBQQWi73aVGVUtc/s1600/223503_1714082691774_1229381341_31563623_3507187_n.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjt-nAwfPWYIgHIccNxiBD5_3Y6hBrDEoB4HhyphenhyphenuBxyUU-kqLDr3FcU5PE_l-vH91_gomzawG2rAoRBojS74-ks-JTjNsOJYlnrk8EBTKxeFUYdvrTzoX5navdpO2PDBzxBQQWi73aVGVUtc/s400/223503_1714082691774_1229381341_31563623_3507187_n.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602207102382783202" /></a><br /><br />Now that the rush to get ready for that is over and I have a little time before I get to scramble to get ready for Portcon Maine, (and I have recovered from my crazy 25th birthday party bus adventure) I have my down time to get back to the studio- I have a lot of work to do, and now that spring is in the air, I am feeling the motivation to get it done!J.Sheahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15403968557422431003noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241676689576793159.post-27717956498225340442011-03-08T16:04:00.002-05:002011-03-08T16:16:27.957-05:00Convention Season<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhidAGmsoimXaWRM29vPG-Gn5t2Mn4xY_vUnXuW8_lx2pcuwFDEDVmybZwHPD84xs_lHfBxJl-bh1D7v6n7V5sREgcHUCY9gC1wgA2XyGrhXTI5RGzJw75khkjmjQSKD74ajqrSAe00jtrL/s1600/finaldeadfantasy.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 296px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhidAGmsoimXaWRM29vPG-Gn5t2Mn4xY_vUnXuW8_lx2pcuwFDEDVmybZwHPD84xs_lHfBxJl-bh1D7v6n7V5sREgcHUCY9gC1wgA2XyGrhXTI5RGzJw75khkjmjQSKD74ajqrSAe00jtrL/s400/finaldeadfantasy.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5581818202067472738" /></a><br /><br />I'm not gonna lie. I am not prepared for convention season AT ALL. Last night I finally got some time in the studio and banged out the piece above. Isn't it AWESOME! haha... I'm actually really happy with it and very surprised it turned out so well, considering I haven't really been doing any art lately. But it lit a spark and now I'm in art-making mode. It feels really good to be drawing and painting again. I think I was a little worn out after I finished the sketchbook project, so this was a great way to get back into my watercolor work again. I still need to get cracking on my comics, but let's take these things one step at a time, shall we?<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkcgwzIu4XtZp-tnMUJPHwWLLTrMl4Zs6rCCtuTiM19V0qJOCeheN_5bvp9fiQbqjJFFE0YDOjiiX_2kf5mCUIf6kJFaoxM1MzTtAdEuCBZGVpvB2y-2MCT3yv9_YUgKHNxmoGFYToJZ0n/s1600/michi.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 211px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkcgwzIu4XtZp-tnMUJPHwWLLTrMl4Zs6rCCtuTiM19V0qJOCeheN_5bvp9fiQbqjJFFE0YDOjiiX_2kf5mCUIf6kJFaoxM1MzTtAdEuCBZGVpvB2y-2MCT3yv9_YUgKHNxmoGFYToJZ0n/s400/michi.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5581818159972039234" /></a><br /><br />SO. Conventions.<br />I haven't heard back from <b>Conbust</b> yet... They haven't cashed my check, so I'm assuming I didn't get in. I did wait until the last minute to send in my application and $$$.<br /><br />But I was taken off the waitlist and given an actual table for <b>Anime Boston</b>! I am very excited about that. That'll be <b>April 22-24</b><br /><br />I also still need to apply for <b>MECAF May 21 & 22</b> Perhaps after work tonight I will finally get around to that. I am such a procrastinator....<br /><br />Then I have <b>PortCon</b> to look forward to <b>June 23-26</b> with Kori Michele! I am so excited for conventions! It feels like forever since I've been to one lol. This also means I'm going to have to start making some serious cash to pay for my expenses. But let's hope it all pays off in the end.

It was a tough decision, but economically the business did not generate enough income to pay all of the monthly expenses- let alone, make a profit. I don't regret opening the space. It was fun, educational, and I am glad that I was given the opportunity to open it, run it, and meet all of the talented artists that we were able to showcase.<br /><br />I'm looking forward to being able to completely focus on my own art. The business added a lot of extra stress that interfered with my own personal work. SO, the first thing I need to complete personally is my Sketchbook Project! I need to mail it by SATURDAY! So I'm taking this snow day to plow through the final pages!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgU9n62W_ChP__G49-FXhzxcacUtDRDt8IxvbRpaLine7Y88L1vRCw6GjKs6r2rwC46-142IOvsm1CyikLSnYVgSfXY3mCz23lu7qEC9gpzJ7Xy88AmJNxAyMAMqwMNG13HBNnu7hoDmDYl/s1600/2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 353px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgU9n62W_ChP__G49-FXhzxcacUtDRDt8IxvbRpaLine7Y88L1vRCw6GjKs6r2rwC46-142IOvsm1CyikLSnYVgSfXY3mCz23lu7qEC9gpzJ7Xy88AmJNxAyMAMqwMNG13HBNnu7hoDmDYl/s400/2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5561357477550144594" /></a>J.Sheahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15403968557422431003noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241676689576793159.post-22213435972845845142010-12-18T14:55:00.003-05:002010-12-18T15:20:07.182-05:002:15<a href="http://www.jayshay.com/215"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 298px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOr2OzKysTdtGTgq2un4gAxbyil16d0zvRrkLCuqRs2u0Q_RZoawYyrgq03FjplsLR-qm5UV0GBe7X0MWRAyJ9bCFW7k7f9KPow9HaUkt_idLkEPft-0Hdd1t-NLVISzt3auoWpeQNYQdL/s400/0079.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5552113666987214210" /></a><br /><br />New 2:15 comic is up.

Honestly, I am glad. 2010 was a terrible year. It started off pretty cool, but on a whole, it's a year I am more than ready to put behind me. I've got a lot of huge changes happening in January that I won't get into here just yet- only to say that I am putting a chapter of my life behind me. So enough of that talk. On to the art.<br /><br />I've been kind of stalling on finishing the last few things to be done with Chapter 1 of Ravenstar. I'm pushing myself to get it all done this month. It'll be satisfying to have that one project finally complete. I'm also pushing to finish up the Sketchbook Project. It needs to be postmarked by Jan. 15th, so I've got some work to do! Unfortunately, I'm really really liking how this is coming out. I'm gonna be a little torn sending it away forever. But I'm sure the Brooklyn Art Library will take good care of it. And it is exciting that (hopefully) a lot of people will get to see my work.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuc-QZQAZJFniq6vVoAuJU1o9fw8BqOtv6bAoNW9Siy5b8iYH6S41WDMh5v98oXPJhJ3FFJCrXdiOTcTP0HzoLhkKClt_JNAC9EeCGCVsgteIKnDIpgs3QlHc48gW-hHFZaeDLDR4LCrPP/s1600/sbp11.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 250px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuc-QZQAZJFniq6vVoAuJU1o9fw8BqOtv6bAoNW9Siy5b8iYH6S41WDMh5v98oXPJhJ3FFJCrXdiOTcTP0HzoLhkKClt_JNAC9EeCGCVsgteIKnDIpgs3QlHc48gW-hHFZaeDLDR4LCrPP/s400/sbp11.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5548403451527219794" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLwWj1dFY2oDUBmqwlXq0Zc7AtfenCWjHR0vOoJEqIyQKYZZC8AnWrNqNtHs7E82G8Gl-F1Dbvt8aN8JXFh5ZbwgzzrCjo5ffB6BUuhGObSMK6yzUz4D0tmA1lLBsQtixY7mGlzXg1zP7H/s1600/skp10.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 243px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLwWj1dFY2oDUBmqwlXq0Zc7AtfenCWjHR0vOoJEqIyQKYZZC8AnWrNqNtHs7E82G8Gl-F1Dbvt8aN8JXFh5ZbwgzzrCjo5ffB6BUuhGObSMK6yzUz4D0tmA1lLBsQtixY7mGlzXg1zP7H/s400/skp10.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5548403565195583026" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgU7q4bJVSyR5l7UxiO5DIFMTsOLUkLxY1jXlMO1I9k2qZiJI9tiAamiGaO7lpX7DQYwt3sy3SoiAZEmn2wvT2tHwaRg_JfQDfwL_PwPTukfyRXuUn4pX7535QjZNyeyu2h0D6baQPWjC6l/s1600/Untitled-4.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 217px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgU7q4bJVSyR5l7UxiO5DIFMTsOLUkLxY1jXlMO1I9k2qZiJI9tiAamiGaO7lpX7DQYwt3sy3SoiAZEmn2wvT2tHwaRg_JfQDfwL_PwPTukfyRXuUn4pX7535QjZNyeyu2h0D6baQPWjC6l/s400/Untitled-4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5548403668184917938" /></a><br /><br />I'm going to take this new year as a time to re-evaluate where I am and where I want to be heading. It feels like a good time to set some new goals, find things that will work for me, and reinvest in myself and my art.

This next week is going to be quite busy! This morning I moved a lot of my big furniture into my new apartment. I didn't set anything up yet, since I need to clean it first and I also needed to be at the gallery today, but the big stuff is all taken care of. That's a load off my shoulders. I took Monday off of work to finish the rest of it up. It'll be nice to have my own place again- even if it is with a couple of roommates!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPTWzsLsAfhrMTNO56nJfC29ZruiurHWytvPTvrgb8eJ8UEhs9QTqSA1iJMlW5Ir0iaZOI1KpCRmF03N9jWyRAkNmAHmpkQiuKYOtqKISj83jD3CxqXMm9eiA-QyqPb22G6W1tUHvD9mQN/s1600/blanket.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 244px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPTWzsLsAfhrMTNO56nJfC29ZruiurHWytvPTvrgb8eJ8UEhs9QTqSA1iJMlW5Ir0iaZOI1KpCRmF03N9jWyRAkNmAHmpkQiuKYOtqKISj83jD3CxqXMm9eiA-QyqPb22G6W1tUHvD9mQN/s400/blanket.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5533887509943562450" /></a><br />Tonight I'm going into Salem for a Halloween party. Halloween is my favorite holiday EVER. I love dressing up in costumes and hanging out with other people dressed like fools. Perhaps that's why I like anime conventions so much as well! I'm gonna be a Sexy Speed Racer. Not slutty, just sexy. I've got my helmet, my red knee socks, and yellow driving gloves. I can't wait!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfy7NRzrsJeUy-XZELpq6KGx5Z14GflJdidoj6pobkpJzCSVpt4nEUorEk7-kFcfLTri_nFxactNSMG3Xc_oO0v1TDS8MP3bHOXbCJW8tYjV4BI6cnt5F0VSR7QItGlIZj8ENPVUfFOBfi/s1600/sbp1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 322px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfy7NRzrsJeUy-XZELpq6KGx5Z14GflJdidoj6pobkpJzCSVpt4nEUorEk7-kFcfLTri_nFxactNSMG3Xc_oO0v1TDS8MP3bHOXbCJW8tYjV4BI6cnt5F0VSR7QItGlIZj8ENPVUfFOBfi/s400/sbp1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5533879641604774274" /></a><br />Also, on Monday I'm hanging "The Art of Comics" show at Cinema Salem. It's a joint show between me and <a href="http://www.swinsea.com">Sarah Searle</a>, focussing on our comic work and process. I'm putting up original work from my three comic projects. Five strips from Apt. C-3, five from 2:15 and a few original pages from Ravenstar. The opening is going to be Sat. Nov. 6th. If you happen to be around Salem, MA anytime you should totally stop by and check it out! It'll be up the whole month of November.<br /><br />Other than that, I'm still plugging away at my <a href="http://www.arthousecoop.com/projects/sketchbookproject">Sketchbook Project</a> sketchbook. All the pieces here are from that book. I'm doing cut paper and ink drawings, with the theme "Jackets, Blankets, & Sheets" So far it's coming out pretty cool. I'm gonna be sad to ship it away, but I suppose the Brooklyn Art Library will take good care of it. If anyone else is interested in participating, they've extended the sign up deadline to November 15th!J.Sheahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15403968557422431003noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241676689576793159.post-74176251275437692932010-10-07T13:51:00.004-04:002010-10-07T14:37:17.216-04:00FAILED 24 Hour Comic<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqJ_QNGFratk3h_-NqRBnwA05mljRAXQJGzOptnPSl-rxhzEIGV9aDufrDPnZ2HvAVRDDlv_QH7k-mfjX3PCwS6pnhF133Yk5aPGnkcVuun-dx73A1trvk8Tg053ZVEJyScs44srLkzVwT/s1600/24HCB.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 165px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqJ_QNGFratk3h_-NqRBnwA05mljRAXQJGzOptnPSl-rxhzEIGV9aDufrDPnZ2HvAVRDDlv_QH7k-mfjX3PCwS6pnhF133Yk5aPGnkcVuun-dx73A1trvk8Tg053ZVEJyScs44srLkzVwT/s400/24HCB.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525374661523690226" /></a><br /><br />So, I failed at making a 24 hour comic. Instead, I made 7 inked comic strips. I was pretty bummed early on because the comic shop I was going to do it at cancelled the event. I ended up just working in my studio alone, which is NO FUN AT ALL :(<br /><br />But I'm pretty happy with what I made off with. Writing 24 punch lines would have been pretty much impossible anyway. I had a hard enough time with these seven. I knew it was time to quit when I drew Alex's hand backwards in the last strip. Better to cut my losses and take what I could get.<br /><br />Eventually I will finish these up properly and post them on my website. I miss doing this comic!J.Sheahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15403968557422431003noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241676689576793159.post-62617298558296954322010-09-28T14:29:00.002-04:002010-09-28T14:42:24.485-04:0024 Hour Comics Day<a href="http://www.24hourcomicsday.com/"><img src="http://www.24hourcomicsday.com/24HCD_anim.gif" width="141" height="60" border="1"></a><br /><br />it's this Saturday! I'm actually going to be doing my 24 hour comic in Lowell this year @ Larry's Comics "the 5th Largest, 11th Nicest Comic Shop in New England". I've actually never been there, because the last time I was in Lowell was like, 5th grade to visit the mills on a school field trip. My first year not participating up in Maine :( I will miss you crazy Portland comicers!<br /><br />I think I'm going to do a similar thing that I tried a few years back but left early and never actually made any progress on. Instead of trying to create a whole new 24 page short comic, I'm just going to do 24 comic strips. I'm not sure if I'll be making 24 Apt C-3 strips, 24 2:15 strips, or 12&12 of each. We'll see... It'll be a good chance for me to take a break from my Ravenstar project and get a good chunk of my webcomic strips under my belt. Maybe it'll be the push I need to really get back in the groove with those.<br /><br />In addition to being 24 Hour Comics Day, October 2nd also marks the 1 year anniversary of the opening of <a href="http://www.jayshay.com/gallery">Jay Shay Gallery</a>! We made it without going bankrupt! I still can't believe it's been a whole year since I opened up! How the time flies...<br /><br />In other news- I'm moving to Ipswich in November with two of my friends from high school... who both now happen to be teachers. I am looking forward to apartment living again! Just hope I can afford it- AH!<br /><br />Which reminds me, I still have my art up for sale: <a href="http://jsheaisaninja.blogspot.com/2010/09/for-sale.html">HERE</a><br />and am still always taking commissions: <a href="http://jsheaisaninja.deviantart.com/journal/33211200/">HERE</a><br /><br />So toss a few bucks my way will ya?!J.Sheahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15403968557422431003noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241676689576793159.post-33650799649222968532010-09-09T15:59:00.006-04:002011-01-08T12:03:27.777-05:00FOR SALEI've decided to sell over 15 of my fan-art pieces that have been just sitting around in my studio.

We had a death in the family that put most of my work on hold for the most part, but I'm starting to get back on track now.<br /><br />Previously, I signed up to be part of Ohayocon's Artist Alley, which is a non-fanart alley (which seems weird to me, being an anime convention and all) So I've taken the opportunity to design my characters as adorable little chibis :) Not sure what I'll do with them yet... magnets? Stickers? keychains? any ideas? who knows... but look how cute!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixqpFC32SZn2UpJch2_acLQEjVl_YcuXB-NOP7sXjVq0VfUu83X01TLMgclnEkkpvWKh_qtl24OvYnBWYHgmY-ZFxNrzpZPJ3Su4YpNdx_zGHgqmnLFhvIo2eMNe_L0mciCefRKUXA2tNX/s1600/chibis.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixqpFC32SZn2UpJch2_acLQEjVl_YcuXB-NOP7sXjVq0VfUu83X01TLMgclnEkkpvWKh_qtl24OvYnBWYHgmY-ZFxNrzpZPJ3Su4YpNdx_zGHgqmnLFhvIo2eMNe_L0mciCefRKUXA2tNX/s400/chibis.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5513108590699592066" /></a><br /><br />I've also thumbnailed through Chapter Five! How accomplished! Right now I'm finishing up the watercolor panels that I had to re-do for chapter one, and it will be complete! That will feel good to have it finally fully finished.<br /><br />On another note, I recently had a little breakdown (as all artists do) on the direction (or lack there of) that I am going as an artist- and a person in general really. But I've taken this as an opportunity to change things in my life. I'm currently looking into a new waitressing job at a more upscale establishment which will provide me with more money in less hours, opening up more time to dedicate to my art. Right now I feel like all I do is work at the restaurant, come home, and sleep. I also got offered to room with a few friends of mine, but considering my financial and home situations, I've decided now is not the best time. Perhaps next spring I'll finally get out on my own again. That will be nice.<br /><br />In other news, I have also been wasting my time drawing fanart. So it goes...<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiT4MBd-U_8Zc6qodc2btnt7hkWacSxjCVvc4ne-ANMLbU0oF70EvKkOShoMisbh4AEDDIwJ6dWnbHkBGNZyDc2tnNtkTkO4C79BsF4PPzkcYEXblcOPW7B65P3xhGujI0FSUQIGo0BrBBF/s1600/balthxfran.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 287px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiT4MBd-U_8Zc6qodc2btnt7hkWacSxjCVvc4ne-ANMLbU0oF70EvKkOShoMisbh4AEDDIwJ6dWnbHkBGNZyDc2tnNtkTkO4C79BsF4PPzkcYEXblcOPW7B65P3xhGujI0FSUQIGo0BrBBF/s400/balthxfran.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5513118577935778162" /></a>J.Sheahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15403968557422431003noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241676689576793159.post-86878762426047491552010-08-18T14:31:00.006-04:002010-08-18T14:43:05.865-04:00Let's Get Motivated!Recently I've come to the realization that I am in no way nearly as productive as I could be. I don't want to say I've been in a rut, because I have been creating art... It's just that I don't feel like I'm getting anywhere. I've been at a standstill with one project in particular, my graphic novel "Ravenstar". It's weird, because I'm really excited about this, but I feel like I've been dragging my feet with it.<br /><br />Over the last week I've talked with some people about this problem (face to face and via the internet) and one of the conclusions I've come to to keep me going is to start posting everything somewhere where I can be held accountable to keep showing more work and also to receive feedback. Therefore, I'm going to start using this blog in that fashion. <br /><br />What'dya say guys? Will you keep me motivated and on task?<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhS5aoApmCfCJmcxU-Du5AoaRW8c1rW75ZiM7zQ5eQQf0HccBpgHpjrDCTCTOorTNc8xJIm8bW-z4ObvgAnpoeQ7S_KXYLm0wExMm08MwVtsO7uKh4I653OSNKqipp-QxMaDFETZZ5mKENB/s1600/ch1coverart.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 286px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhS5aoApmCfCJmcxU-Du5AoaRW8c1rW75ZiM7zQ5eQQf0HccBpgHpjrDCTCTOorTNc8xJIm8bW-z4ObvgAnpoeQ7S_KXYLm0wExMm08MwVtsO7uKh4I653OSNKqipp-QxMaDFETZZ5mKENB/s400/ch1coverart.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5506821289245765314" /></a><br />This is an illustration I literally JUST finished. Hot off the presses! I'm using it as a cover image for the first chapter of "Ravenstar" (text to be added later) I cannot tell you how long it took me to get from start to finish with this piece. I never ever want another work to take as long as this one did. It's time to start MOVING and getting stuff done. The wheels of progress are in motion!<br /><br />Chapter One is pretty much complete, for the most part. I do have to go back and re-do the first four pages, because I altered the story after I had already finished those pages, and now they don't really make any sense with the story line. So that is my project for the week! I will check in next week and let you all know how it's going. Hopefully everything will be done by then and I'll have some awesome stuff to show you all!<br /><br />Until then, please continue to kick my ass into staying on top of things!J.Sheahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15403968557422431003noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241676689576793159.post-67133508311475947212010-05-12T12:04:00.005-04:002010-05-12T12:26:30.657-04:00Oh hey!It's been a while since I blogged here! Anyway- last month I attended Anime Boston- my first real convention selling my stuff. It was SO much fun. I did a ton of fanart for it, which was both fun and distracting. I've had a hard time getting back into the swing of my original art as a result, but I'm getting there. One thing all this fanart has done is helped my practice with my watercolors. It's also gotten me a few commissions, which helps out with the purchasing of more art supplies :D<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2nxYvekbEaQGjEv8sjW4fRsJrA6eq6DLdxm9iZbsTgeS2mCUZ2wCKVcA7IW59He89PwUX4WPDLIfZy7loCzz0PlSNHdV7w7GWv5yDQ8bmjuboYXlzWQLFqw0MejK4T6yVQJLK2eyuOZRu/s1600/toph.jpg"><img style="text-align: justify;display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 134px; " src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2nxYvekbEaQGjEv8sjW4fRsJrA6eq6DLdxm9iZbsTgeS2mCUZ2wCKVcA7IW59He89PwUX4WPDLIfZy7loCzz0PlSNHdV7w7GWv5yDQ8bmjuboYXlzWQLFqw0MejK4T6yVQJLK2eyuOZRu/s200/toph.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470417118128294946" /></a> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhiU1umLNw1a_W8Y1o0IaF0acNXtHRM87Zk7Ey_Ic_7N_FbJHC1fTxwhMOzn13zux_HABslnUmVm4s3VyuNrOtgxYttLWP4zawPnxDxcpUy8czlk5iGwDzw1R17dEekIu2g-kRD7ogcp6Y/s1600/prettysoldier.jpg"><img style="text-align: justify;display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; cursor: pointer; width: 160px; height: 200px; " src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhiU1umLNw1a_W8Y1o0IaF0acNXtHRM87Zk7Ey_Ic_7N_FbJHC1fTxwhMOzn13zux_HABslnUmVm4s3VyuNrOtgxYttLWP4zawPnxDxcpUy8czlk5iGwDzw1R17dEekIu2g-kRD7ogcp6Y/s200/prettysoldier.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470417111364877874" /></a> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGlqjScMS2T5cR73JKAojfXSsukA6AzJcV-yXSjdt-z2J5JH6B-nXsIThvXUhh900CKmhFbmHnnnIRdb6BY20p1NNnHc_spWCYWF07IEuRj6BRkeJqei0YLZIc0OkMPYmSMVERJ_8pc125/s1600/penelota2.jpg"><img style="text-align: justify;display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; cursor: pointer; width: 160px; height: 200px; " src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGlqjScMS2T5cR73JKAojfXSsukA6AzJcV-yXSjdt-z2J5JH6B-nXsIThvXUhh900CKmhFbmHnnnIRdb6BY20p1NNnHc_spWCYWF07IEuRj6BRkeJqei0YLZIc0OkMPYmSMVERJ_8pc125/s200/penelota2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470417110277361602" /></a> <br /><br />Now I'm gearing up for the Maine Comics Arts Festival May 23rd. I wanted to have the first chapter of Ravenstar ready, but I don't want to rush it and be disappointed with the result. I'm still pushing to have it done in time, but the print turn around window is closing rapidly! I may just have a little preview book available instead. It's looking good so far, so I want to keep that quality!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOV-pFObt3VBjFPpOoFIsK3PIGeBZ6rr8rFUDxhEB1za5SqZ-3BsxAgFTgHaoC1sh7UPpBvHfWGTOsGhSz0-jhMGerQ5dt3pOcb7Vbs1J5BtCeT3ZrGBQSzFcs79BLODqJ73_e7eG8uvKq/s1600/sneakpeak.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 272px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOV-pFObt3VBjFPpOoFIsK3PIGeBZ6rr8rFUDxhEB1za5SqZ-3BsxAgFTgHaoC1sh7UPpBvHfWGTOsGhSz0-jhMGerQ5dt3pOcb7Vbs1J5BtCeT3ZrGBQSzFcs79BLODqJ73_e7eG8uvKq/s320/sneakpeak.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470419082942500834" /></a><br /><br />I've also been working on some new pieces to put in my gallery.

She came up with the concept, so I take no credit there! It was really a lot of fun to do and I'm glad she liked it!

I'm learning! Those of you more skilled in the digital realm, what do you think? I'm pretty impressed with how it came out, so I'm happy :)<br /><br />I know I've been doing a lot of fan art as opposed to original work lately, but it's fun and keeps me entertained so I'm not going to stop. I just need to work faster to have more time to do everything!<br /><br />On that note, I did finally get my airship for my comic more or less figured out. I showed it to my Dad who went to school as Mass Maritime Academy and thus knows way more about ships than I do. He had some good input that helped out a lot, such as:<br /><br />"What is that?"<br />"The Kitchen."<br />"The what?"<br />"The Kitchen."<br />"The WHAT?"<br />"....the galley?"<br />"There you go."<br /><br />Still needs some tweaking, but this is the basic final version...

It's a fantasy comic about sky pirates and witches. I really just wanted an excuse to draw goggles on a bunch of characters, and viola! I've started sketching and inking the first few pages (page 10 still doesn't exist, I have no idea how to lay it out... details, details...) <br /><br />I want to have this first chapter done and printed and ready for the Maine Comics Arts Festival in May. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to have it done, just have to stick to my schedule. I also have all of chapter two thumbnailed, and half of chapter three. Thumbnailing is probably my favorite part of the comic making process. I need to stop doing that and actually get into the process of making the finished product.<br /><br />I also commissioned a deviantArt artist, <a href="http://deathofrats.deviantart.com/">deathofrats</a> to do a small watercolor of one of my characters- Princess. She made her look so much prettier than when I draw her, lol! I am very happy with it!

Partly because I was going through a ton of pen nibs, and partly because the pen was starting to feel really restricting. I was finding I kept getting the same lines over and over. There was no excitement or movement. <br /><br />Now that I'm using my brush, I'm getting into a lot of accidents, and that's awesome! This piece for example has so much more life in it than if I had inked it with my pen. I've been using the brush on sketches, finished work, and even my comics. I can't wait to keep going with it!J.Sheahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15403968557422431003noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241676689576793159.post-20514664790683370042009-09-21T17:13:00.003-04:002009-09-21T17:16:10.083-04:002 new Portraits<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinyvtpFd3k7PUdnuRMQkJLh8iOJaMGAZKwZjETUubLXzgLq9aG7dtEtK37qxJ6WiC_eS5qRMYhop70r3jouSZp_rOiP36S1iCDXaD807mlV-yQW2RDeU-rvmiWbIgXm8YuhLWoLe86_xK4/s1600-h/kori_michele.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 310px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinyvtpFd3k7PUdnuRMQkJLh8iOJaMGAZKwZjETUubLXzgLq9aG7dtEtK37qxJ6WiC_eS5qRMYhop70r3jouSZp_rOiP36S1iCDXaD807mlV-yQW2RDeU-rvmiWbIgXm8YuhLWoLe86_xK4/s400/kori_michele.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384032302859791554" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF82kTzN9J_stRGioXKH-C3_O83ysBgcoSGVDhnX4Tr_2Ksam9jbMG-_9CHm0EF4n9I-7X3dKa2NqgvuK8R5P97LtuYL1rmXdnmZQGk7JOkhsLxEUOlReXIUL8nkzXy6HFD5aQKuqJx0nr/s1600-h/aviators.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 295px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF82kTzN9J_stRGioXKH-C3_O83ysBgcoSGVDhnX4Tr_2Ksam9jbMG-_9CHm0EF4n9I-7X3dKa2NqgvuK8R5P97LtuYL1rmXdnmZQGk7JOkhsLxEUOlReXIUL8nkzXy6HFD5aQKuqJx0nr/s400/aviators.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384032218985352946" /></a><br /><br />Self Portrait & Portrait of Kori.<br />Digital work.J.Sheahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15403968557422431003noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241676689576793159.post-40050630267231217302009-09-01T17:09:00.005-04:002009-10-31T13:25:39.070-04:00The Witches<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhO3PD3UISdCxaOyEE8F_O59nBmf55zIdKpv22nGcjIjETV6KJ_jTIFlhQlFlZrrkUcQjB2iRBiOnw0RRFZjH7pgIxfE30vwHuVIHXSst8sdAy18k-P1CPk3JKmWdsqWmnJjKvkLg0pkJ5n/s1600-h/witches+16-31-53.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 280px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhO3PD3UISdCxaOyEE8F_O59nBmf55zIdKpv22nGcjIjETV6KJ_jTIFlhQlFlZrrkUcQjB2iRBiOnw0RRFZjH7pgIxfE30vwHuVIHXSst8sdAy18k-P1CPk3JKmWdsqWmnJjKvkLg0pkJ5n/s400/witches+16-31-53.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5376609478461701186" /></a><br />finished watercolor piece. I'm really happy with how it came out. Of course now I can spot at least five things wrong with it, but whatever. I like it. <br /><br />These are all five of my "weather witches" for my comic project I'm working on right now. Perhaps I will be using this as a cover/title page illustration. It brings me back to those days I used to draw Sailor Moon pictures with everyone squished in, lol. I dig how the hairstyles came out the most.

I've been working on this story in my head for a while, and I'm now finally getting somewhere solid with it. It's kind of an action/adventure/romance/fantasy. Kind of expanding on the little four page short I did for the recently deceased AniMECA project. I'm pretty excited about the whole idea- and the characters are just so much fun to draw!J.Sheahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15403968557422431003noreply@blogger.com0
