Here is a picture of Leslie that I drew in 20 minutes, just because. : P

Flairé Poster
Click for larger size! I spent a while working on this one, and it turned out… not too bad, I have to say. The sunset came out pretty much how I wanted it, and Flairé too. Yes, that means much too bright and colourful… whatever. Leslie… is much too small. But I fail at perspective anyway… Anyway, she liked it, and that’s what matters.
P.S. If I ever get a car, I am going to name it Norma.

More Christmas presents for people!
First, my role-playing buddy, Torrigan the Paladin!
His hair is supposed to be black but blue is a common highlight for black hair. Continue reading
Douce France
So this just popped into my head – first the song, Douce France by Charles Trenet, which is an absolutely gorgeous song and you should listen to it, and then the picture. The picture is what I would do if I were rich and could afford a convertible and enough time to go on one of them old-fashioned ‘road trips’ – oh, and if I had the inclination to go on a road trip. : P Anyway, so I’d drag Leslie and Kevin and Organist along with me, and we would crank up Trenet to top volume and just cruise happily. And we’d all wear sunglasses ‘coz we’re cool like that. Actually I’ve never seen Kevin wear sunglasses. But I’m sure he has them. I’m not sure what’s happening in the back seat, but it looks like Kevin wants to see the map but Organist won’t let him.
Sketchbook cover
By request, here is the cover of the sketchbook that the Leslie/Flairé comic was drawn in. I bought a little package of Japanese paper and proceeded to cover up the complete doke who previously adorned this book. He was rollerblading with a giant pen.
Flairé and Leslie are represented, but the rest is just random.
I will not be updating for a little while. But I have some stuff for you when I start again!
The Totally Not-Canon Adventures of Flairé: Waking Up
Leslie: Was it a dream? I could have sworn I fell asleep in the practice room… Look, there’s my backpack and my music books, and my keys…
She goes to look out the window of her dorm, and then turns away to her computer (Faceborg!! j/k). But a mysterious smile still hangs in the reflections in the window…
THE LASTEST PAGE!! I’m actually feeling a little bit sad that I don’t have to do it anymore. The weekly scramble to draw and colour pages on Sunday… continuing a story I don’t even know if anyone reads or cares about or finds interesting… but that’s okay! A new story MIGHT start in September! Anyway, I’ve been told by other artists this is completely normal. And in fact I’m not that sad. It’s nice to finish something! I have a lot of things I want to finish!
The next thing I am planning to finish is Ephraim’s Story. So perhaps you will see some chapters of that going up. I have to be careful because I have Provincials to practice for. And after that organ to practice like crazy.
Also I have completely fallen in love (again) with Eric Beaudry’s voice. I’d marry that voice. srsly.
The Totally Not-Canon Adventures of Flairé: Memory
Leslie never forgot how that music made her feel – all excited and relaxed at the same time, as the songs grew more and more lyrical, peaceful, and happy. But she could never remember how it sounded. (falls asleep on chair…)
And music happens with some trite totally cliché’d voiceover narrator. The colouring went better this week, but I coloured in some of the wrong squares in the blanket so I had to fix it in Photoshop. Boring page, I know. But come Sunday for the shocking conclusion!
Flairé: The conclusion is shocking?
Yes! It is! Weren’t you there?
Flairé: I… yeah…
The Totally Not-Canon Adventures of Flairé: Flairé Never Shuts Up
Flaria: And now, time for some music!
Flairé: Yeah!
Flairé: And I’ll need my pipe, and my… whistle? and those drums, and the guitar…
Flaria: wouldja shut up for two seconds together?
Ever get the feeling they’re siblings? LOL. So yeah, now they’re going to play some music. Not much else to say. Except that for some reason when I was inking my hand was sliding all over the place so there are some weird smudges everywhere and I’m not really happy with anyone’s face except for Flairé and Leslie’s in the bottom panel. And Flairé’s supposed to have a stool, but I forgot to draw it. Oh well. He’ll have one on Wednesday. Also, this page has answered a question that many people – me – were asking about Deerfleet – does Deerfleet have pants? The answer seems to be YES HE DOES. Mystery solved!
Omigosh, only two more pages left! These last days have just whizzed by. I’ll be done soon!
In other news, we have lost our dear, beloved conductor Janos Sandor, who just retired from 15 years of conducting the UVic and GVYO orchestras. He died of cancer on Friday. He was always cheerful and upbeat, and an amazing musician. Everyone loved him. We will miss him terribly.
The Totally Not-Canon Adventures of Flairé: Gratuitious Nom
Leslie: I know… I should get more sleep at night.
Jen: You should! ; D Just teasing. We’ve been over this before. Anyway, maybe you can come here to unwind sometimes now! (Leslie: nod nod)
Flaria: If the frequency by which I’ve seen you and Esgalwen here is any indication, your nice friend will be here very often.
Flairé: You have to want to come, you know. Once you know the way, it’s easy, it seems.
Jen: That’s right!
Hey, it’s a page! I think I kind of overdid it with the warm comforting reds. : P And the walls are still mostly grey, so it… yeah. I can only assure you that it looks different in person.
So, yes. A page about people eating and talking about sleeping.
The Totally Not-Canon Adventures of Flairé: Siblings
Flaria: Hooray! You’re back safely!
Flairé: Yes, indeed we are, sister! Do you have food?
Flaria: Oh, Flairé, just look at these rips and tears… Do you know how long it will take me to fix that? Continue reading
