happy winter solstice!
I wanted to get my christmas card printed and in the mail this year, but since I just finished coloring it last night it became an e-card. (I have to admit I like not worrying about my cards being held up at the printer, or lost in the holiday snail mail.)
I want to thank everyone for your wonderful support. 5 years ago on Christmas Eve I decided to start up this here blog to begin sharing my creative endeavors. I never could have imagined all the wonderful connections I would make, and this year I was especially lucky to be able to meet even more bloggers out in the real world. Looking back, this has been an incredible journey, and it feels like it's still just beginning.
edit: Oops! I almost forgot I wanted to share my color palette choosing method this time. I had these colors picked out a while back, and in order to stay true to it I scanned them in. I had to alter a bit from the scan, but it was a good stepping off point.
Okay, now back to our regularly scheduled holiday wishes~~~
I wish everyone a Christmas filled with merriment and a prosperous and creative 2011!
For a little creative inspiration, watch this amazing 2D animation.
I noticed this reflection in one of my tiny ornaments the other day:
Don't forget to take time to appreciate the little things
See you in 2011!
