Tasky task

5 Things I learnt last year

• A lot can get done in a short amount of time, so instead of abusing this principle by allowing no time to accomplish a task, I should use all of the time and then my work will be actually good
• Do things now rather than later, because I will leave everything until later and then later will be now and there will be too much to do. 
• I made a process for making a comic, which is useful to generate work but I don't want to stick with it forever and ever, so it shall be challenged, altered and improved this year. 
• A lot of technical skills, working digitally, printing zines, all that useful knowledge that will help me function as a self sufficient illustrator
• Documentation is really important in hindsight, at the time its easy to forget because its happening now, but later on it becomes really useful for reflecting and is the only existing link to how I made work and was thinking in the past. 

5 things I want to know more about

• Publishing, how to do it and how it works, small press and self directed as well as being involved with larger companies. How does this all happen to make books exist.
• What is my purpose in this market, is there a place for the things I think I want to do now? Will the things I want to do change or have to change?
• Can I work outside of comics, successfully, whilst enjoying it still and keeping the same tone
• Digital printing and formatting and all such things
• Creating a presence as an illustrator

5 Strengths

• Creating narratives to communicate ideas and feelings
• Playing with faces/characters
• Generating ideas and things in sketchbooks
• Reflective writing 
• Creating final work as part of a brief, often in a short period of time. Short deadlines

5 Areas for Improvement

• Being motivated in the moment, rather than planning on being motivated later on
• Drawing bodies
• Documenting and evaluating at the time it happened, instead of retrospectively 
• Experimenting with other media within comics 
• Making finished pieces of work outside of briefs, putting sketchbook work to use

Very much into New Yorker cartoonists at the moment and how they fit a complete story/joke/idea into one image, succinct

Bought this yesterday, new comic from Michael Deforge in Lose series, not read yet but previous issues were good, trippy and disturbing while crisp and clear in art style

Seth, It's a good life if you don't weaken. Favourite thing I read over summer, heavily associated with new found interest in New Yorker cartoonists

I'm quite into Golden Age American animation at the minute. This is Silly symphonies skeleton dance, its crazy to see what was possible before all the advancements in animation technology, I also love the wholesome traditional feeling of the drawings, especially with a macabre spin such as in this

Saw this series on the internet, just thought they looked lovely, atmospheric, colours - Tim Doyle
