The work on <i>Loon</i> was a bit rushed as the Side Walk Art Show at the Munson William Proctor Institute immediately preceded the Central Adirondack Art Show. I was going to submit new work for the Side Art Show as well, but my plans for that particular piece hit a wall due to lack of acrylic resin.

First off, last week my <i>Every Rose</i> was featured in the oil & pastel category of the Munson Williams Proctor Institute's Side Walk Art Show! The show ran from only June 30th to July 4th, so if you didn't attend I understand why. I only managed to stop by for a half hour to vote on July 3rd!<br />

If my work has not been sold I will be reclaiming it Thursday (the 12th).<br />

</div><div class="MsoNormal">Recently I read a passing reference to this idea in a <a href="http://the99percent.com/" target="_blank">the99%</a> (not <a href="http://wearethe99percent.tumblr.com/" target="_blank">THE 99%</a>, even though I wholeheartedly support them) blog post. The general idea is that if you can make yourself do something for 30 days then that action will become a habit for you. It’s nearly so self explanatory it borders on redundancy.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Think about your habits. The little things you do every day. Some of them are good, others could even be considered poisonous, but to an observer they all compose the narration of who one is.</div><div class="MsoNormal">This Idea is appealing to a self improvement addict, and unlike many other “techniques”, “tactics”, “strategies”, “tips”, etc, as there is actually some truth to it.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">There is greater implication to the idea. Habits compose who we are. The idea is as ancient as the word’s Latin origins, habere, which was not only used as “to have or to hold” an object but to describe both inner and outward characteristics of individuals as well. It was also used to refer to what one was wearing.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">That knowledge confers a comforting idea, that through our free will (even if we prescribe to a delusion of destiny) we can control and disrobe from seemingly natural malfeasance of character. Beyond this, and in step with nature’s abhorrence of vacuums, one could infer (however wildly) that one habit must replace another, and we can use that momentum to better our behavioral circumstances. Still, if that is true then once more we must also cater to the notion of free will (<a href="http://wp.patheos.com/blogs/unreasonablefaith/files/2009/09/atheist_cat.jpg" target="_blank">my apologies to the god-fearing</a>).</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">“Free Will” being the key phrase, for often I have found that there is seemingly far too little of it in abundance that would easily account for such a grievous misnomer.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Will is nurtured, will is earned, will waxes and wanes. However I have never felt will as being free, especially strong will.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">However, even a strong will alone is no guarantee that it is possible to change a comfortable habit. Not a positive habit, just one that has developed unnoticed, or one that is chronic in nature and has been present so long it feels natural.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">That requires a self evaluation, what habits can even be considered positive? Negative? Chronic?</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">You might have to simplify further and ask what is really important to you. Chances are there is going to be some list making.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">The focus of this blog isn’t self help though, so I am not going to cater specifically to the details behind that process. I will however be talking this week how I am currently employing this idea, how it is generating results for me, and the mindset I have behind it. If I can give you any insight I would rather dispense it through demonstration than lecture.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

There have been delays though, starting from all the way back in Oct. '11. Have I been happy about it? NO. Impatient? Just a little.<br />
<br />
Although I have learned quite a bit, not including how to annoy an author, between where we started with the project and where my art is now. Little did I know the kind of challenges this project would hold.<br />
<br />
I am used to complexity in art, you can see it in my non-digital pieces. I love making all the little pieces fall together just so, which by themselves are at best abstract, but together reveal my visual intent.<br />
<br />
Comics, not even just web comics, but all comics are a different creature. The way I planned my other work was meticulous and required time that is not only counter productive to comic creation, but downright demoralizing when applied incorrectly.<br />
<br />
The problem comes with my stubborn nature. The work I would have done would have been beautiful, but it would have been 2020 before Scene 1 was finished with the quality I was demanding of myself. In the end I had to admit to myself (rather ungraciously) that "getting better" beat "being good". Which leads to my next topic.<br />

<br />
Rigor.<br />
<br />
The way I train myself to do anything is pretty merciless. The industry standard for webcomic updates comes in four different flavors (not counting a few eclectic update schedules like <a href="http://dresdencodak.com/" target="_blank">Dresden Codak</a>):<br />
<br />
1) The once a week update (typically Mon. or Fri.) e.g. <a href="http://noneedforbushido.com/" target="_blank">No Need For Bushido</a><br />
<br />
2) The twice a week update (typically Tue. or Thur.) e.g. ...no <i>good </i>examples...<br />
<br />
3) The three times a week (Mon. Wed. or Fri.) e.g. <a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_229378584">Gunnerkrigg Court</a><br />
<br />
4) The daily (business days) + updates e.g. <a href="http://leasticoulddo.com/" target="_blank">Least I Could Do</a><br />
<br />
Naturally I want to be the last category mentioned. So every day after every hold up, every catch, I make extra time, and learn not a <i>better </i>ways or even a more <i>professional</i> ways to go about comic craft, but rather rather just <b>faster</b> ways. This is on top of the hour of pure figure drawing I force myself to do, and all the actual other work I have to get accomplished during a 24 hour period.<br />
<br />
Even if In Search of Alex Orange starts with bi-weekly updates, I can assure you it's not going to stay that way for long. This is simply because I can't stand producing work at an insufficient rate. The faster I work that faster the quality of the comic increases. Think of it like sprinting to increase endurance.<br />
<br />
With that said I can tell you changes are already happening behind the scenes in basically all facets of the comic, and you will seem them implemented at an exponential rate over the next couple of weeks.<br />
<br />
<br />
Don't worry I am still doing commissions. I am still doing t-shirt designs. I am still working on all the projects that I have been working on. I am just as dedicated as ever to producing high quality work and providing ever increasing value to my clients and community.<br />
<br />
Speaking of which, time for some shameless self promotion.<br />
<br />

</tbody></table><b>Why:</b> The institution which employs Miss Palmer is suffering from a drop in enrollment, so they had to cut one of her classes. This means she has <i>significantly </i>less to fall back on (monetarily speaking) in the near future, and things are going to get pretty tight if we can't mitigate that loss. That is why I have teamed up with Ielle to help her get past this rough spot, reaching out to our mutual communities, so she can buy groceries and continue to feed her adorable little puggle Izzy. If you can support Ielle, and get an awesome t-shirt in exchange, you should definitely check out the shop links below. We would also be eternally grateful.<br />
<br />
<b>How:</b> Through Skreened and Cafe Press! We are providing two options to help you provide salvation from destitution for Ielle, and more importantly shield puggles from starvation!<br />

<br />
Spreading the word about the design war between Ielle and I is the best thing <b>you</b> can do to help us, even beyond buying a shirt (and trust us we would really <i>really</i> <b>love</b> it if you bought a shirt.). Even if you tell just <b>TWO</b> people, <i>deux</i> peoples, it would be huge for us.<br />
<br />
Thank you for whatever support you can muster!<br />
<br />
OH, and I nearly forgot to mention if you vote on the Facebook wall, and suggest the theme of our next T-shirt battle you could be in the running to WIN $25 through Paypal! This is my own personal investment to help Ielle, and it is a reward for one lucky person from our community who comes forward to support us. This person could be you, so I recommend heading over to <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/303694929689985/" target="_blank">THE EVENT</a> and checking out the commotion.<br />
