“I could buy a LIGHTBOX!”

comic

For the longest time I've been trying to come up with a process of creating well-rendered art that maintains the spontaneity and liveliness of my sketches (I'm still working on it). One morning, I was really grinding away, thinking about how I could do this, when I had the idea of buying a lightbox, an item I hadn't used since my high school art class. In my sleepy head I was thinking ... "That's it ... I know ... I'll buy a LIGHTBOX!" And immediately I started plotting how I would go to Utrecht and buy it, and plan my whole day around this important event. When I woke up I told my boyfriend about it. It seems really silly now to be so excited about a lightbox, but at the time, my boyfriend said I had the "crazy eyes."
