What is it with those pointy ears...

I made this banner today (the same that is now in my profile):

It was after a friend and I somehow got into the topic of the elves’ pointy ears. I was telling her about how I wanted to see the new ‘Hellboy’ movie because the main antagonist in the flick is an elf and I was reading a little interview with the actor who plays the elf and he stated, "I don’t know what it is about wearing those pointy ears…but the ladies love them!" That cracked me up because I remember reading an interview with Orlando Bloom and he had said the same thing when he was playing Legolas. I do love those pointed ears though...dunno what it is about them….

I started a new drawing and it’s one I’m doing all on the computer. I decided that this is a world going digital and although I love traditional, I need to start broadening my art palette and practice more with digital works. It’s a fan art based on Ouran High School Host Club! WOOT! I drew it by hand but the coloring and the rest will be done on the computer. I love how the sketch came out…probably since it just happens to be depicting one of my fave scenes in that show. I think I may be able to bring my laptop into work too…it’s a Tuesday so it’ll be slow at the casino and another supervisor had brought in her laptop before so I don’t see why not…that will allow me to be able to work on my artsies while at the job and I know my boss doesn’t mind…in fact he encourages me to draw at work! Heehee! Well, obviously, as long as it doesn’t get in the way of my actual work…but that’s just common sense and I never abuse the freedom my boss gives me when it comes to what I can do on my down time.

Heehee!
