‘in my room with the headphones on; deep in a dream’

Things have been rough this month, in the Land of Caitlin; & what else is there to do when the going gets tough, but hunker down, listen to We Shall All Be Healed & The Sunset Tree, and draw bats with increasingly ridiculously intricate linework?

It’s cathartic, I promise.

I’m also getting faster! Each bat only takes about 2+ hours now, as opposed to… who knows how long, when I first started experimenting with silly amounts of linework.

Finals are practically upon us, so I’m clicking into workaholic mode- without which I’d never be able to run the gauntlet that finals always inevitably turns into. If I was a superhero, my powers would be buckling down and getting an impossible amount of stuff done at the last minute.

I would be useless fighting crime, but probably pretty good with paperwork. Sigh.

Anyway.

My three big projects are a finalized version of We Be Monsters, screenprinted victorian-esque wallpaper made out of all of the bats I’ve been drawing, & a 3 ft tall wall-mounted automata. This weekend is going to be almost entirely focused on w.b.m., since it’s due on the 20th (!!!!!!!) and there’s still a lot to do (!!!!!!), but I have a lot of work to get done for the automata, as well. Only a few weeks left in the semester, and then Junior year is over…!
