Life Constipation

Thats the best way that I can put it.....my life feels constipated. I really would like to say thats a good thing, but it sounds as positive as it reads. I need some sort of life laxative. Hopefully with spring on its way I can shake this. I guess it didnt take me a month to post this time....so here me tryin to dump. Thanks a bunch for puttin up with my slackin ways.

You get up to early in the morning. Human beings weren't meant to wake up so early. But if it means you get to draw the way you do it must be a good thing.

wow those are awesome Mel! You are master artiste...Bon bon....

Tom Scholes said...

You know what you need? Lunch with Tom next week, works everytime.

Sweet update!

Good variety of styles Mel! You're not the only one waiting for spring to bring some much needed energy.

Andy Latham said...

I love the second one down Mel, lovely lighting on the hair. You manage to get a lot out of your Cintiq!

Kactiguy said...

Or lunch with Guy. That would work too.

aintshakespeare said...

Ooh, wow. I love the ladies.

Adrian Lubbers said...

I can completely relate, but let's be honest. If I "slacked" as much as you Mel I could take over the art world. You know what I do? Ride my motorbike! Works everytime. Again though, I guess you still need spring for that! Good Luck Man!!!

Shawn Escott said...

You know we love you man!! Life has a way of being constipated once and while. But, I've learned, things always have a way of turning around. Thank God! Be persistent and hang in there. Wonderful things are on the horizon!! Great drawings man! I like how you're coloring and shading them. :)

Alex Deligiannis said...

You're a master, bro. If that means you can't poop now and then, it's all good. That 2nd drawing is excellent, I really dig the treatment on the hair!

Juampa said...

Hi mel!
You know, with this part of the year, lot of people feel depressive!
But don't worry, spring coming soon!
And like Adrian say, motorbike it's cool!!!
Amazing draws again, I love the woman with red dress!
I have always loved woman with red dress elsewhere...Don't know why!

Have fun!

You've posted a lot more stuff lately than I have, so you may be a slacker, but I'm an even better slacker than you. I wish I was a better artist than you, but alas...

Unknown said...

Waiting for more.

Ken Chandler said...

And how is it that even constipated you can produce such amazing work? I get constipated and my work sucks rocks.

Your a good guy Mel. You'll get through this. Hope it's a quick recovery.

Ken Chandler said...

Oh, and don't click on Salar's "click here or here" thing, it's a VIRUS. Sorry he found you too Mel. I suggest you erase his comment. Just thinking out loud.

Andy C. said...

If you have a sweet tooth, now is the time to binge. I'd recommend Crème brûlée and/or Tiramisu. Yum-o.

Great sketches too! :)
