Phew! Wow. A month flew by, didn't it? Well, it did for me. I got a freelance VFX compositing job this month and have been working on that along with taking care of friend drama.

Spring Hike 2014 – Timpanogous Cave and Alpine Loop
On May 31, 2014 I went on a hike with my father and husband to Timpanogous Cave. It was a very nice little spring morning on the shady side of the mountain, which was good since we're all (except my hubby I guess) kind of out of shape and going up an incline is hard. … Continue reading Spring Hike 2014 – Timpanogous Cave and Alpine Loop

Art Direction for Comics & Stuff – Notes from FanX 2015
I went to a panel about good art direction for comics/screenplays/etc. It turned out to mostly be a panel about being art-directed by an art director, but I did manage to pull out some tidbits of advice for figuring out art direction on your own.

Salt Lake Comic Con Fan-X 2015
This year Salt Lake Comic Con decided to do their Fan-Experience convention the last week of January. It took up my whole weekend. I slept almost the whole day today trying to catch up on rest.
