Yes! (or Alas!) after several months from my last post
(April 22nd) I'm posting again to say:
I am not dead yet. It's true that I'm going through
the toughest, most difficult phase of my life, but I'm trying as to keep calm
and bite my upper (even though it's usually the lower) lip hard and keep going.
No, I am not going to post a "Keep calm and..." poster, even though I
have made one in the past. You're safe for now.
So, what happened during
those months, you say? (bear with me, these are not going to be in order)
I've (at last) made a PDF folio. I think I'm kinda proud of it for now. Behold:
I made a Facebook Page for my work. You can find it here: https://www.facebook.com/HarryAsaphSaxonART
If you have a Facebook account please Like and share if you like my work even a bit.
I haz more
business cards now!

My colouring work was featured in Fuctart online
magazine. I am grateful they asked to feature me, but I spent
some time making the pages I sent them and they just cropped and used some
images without credits. Bit cross with that. Feel free to register and download
the latest issue (#18) here: http://www.fuctart.gr/en/component/content/article/1-issues/138-fuctart-issue-18.html
I have started therapy. It's for my
transition and also mending some very deep wounds my soul has, so, either way,
helpful. I'm trying to become a better person, a one that doesn't break down
that easily and, lately, this happened a lot, so, work in progress there.
Anyway, I shouldn't write these things, but it's an
artist's blog and my personal blog, so yes, why not.
I have
made a mastectomy fund. Preparing for the future of my transition. It's very
very hard (possibly impossible) as to save money for that now, so if you please
have something to spare, I'd be forever grateful. (You can request a sketch if
you donate, I'd be happy to make one, or commission me ^^)
I am now 30 years old, my fab girlfriend had her birthday 2 days ago and we’re now almost 1,5
year together. Yay us. Also:
My hair's all salt and pepper now. Mature much?
By the way: my friend Lu gave me a tie for my birthday, making it officially the 10th tie I have. I am very proud of my tie collection (8 silk ones, 2 synthetic). This tie is the bee’s knees.

Also: my
friend Lu took me by the ear and we went to London
and then Sheffield to see John Simm perform in Harold Pinter’s Betrayal at The
Crucible. I popped my British theatre cherry with my
beloved (and utter bloody northern BASTARD) John Simm. I’m happy I lived through that and
didn’t melt on the spot. The theatre was great, the play was great (I luv
Pinter), John was great, the weather wasn’t that great (bloody soddy sun!) and
oh, I met the TARDIS at last. And 2 friends of mine from deviantArt, Jemma and
Alice :D we shared a pint and I was so glad to actually meet them.
My friend
Sofia got into the Athens school of Graphic Design. I was so
glad but I couldn’t express that because I’m a jerk (I was really depressed).
I got
acquainted to a kitten I thought was going
to be my future cat, but didn’t make it, it was terribly ill. Some people
called it Joe, but I wanted to name it Koschei. RIP Kos.
I made a
sketch of the Ninth Doctor and one of the Eleventh Doctor. Here are both of them, hope you like:
That's all for now, I think. Hope I'll update again soon. Take care of yourselves and think a little bit of me. Ta!
I am sorry if you were aiming for a mature look, but the new hair (which I find totally awesome) makes you look really young :)
ReplyDeleteActually, I just cut my hair, I wasn't aiming for anything, because no matter what I do, I end up looking younger anyway :P (its the curse of the Time Lords:P)
DeleteThe ties help with the young but mature look though ;]
ReplyDeleteWell, I like, no, I *LOVE* ties. :)
