I’m not quite sure how many people still follow this blog, but for those of you who still are, you might have noticed some changes. I have pretty much finished modifying the new layout of this blog and will be concentrating now on redesigning my main site. During the past year, I’ve also gotten a hold of much of my older drawings and photography (which were taken using my PENTAX K1000). Thus, I will be adding those to the mix in addition to the new design. There will also be a few new drawings along with a few hundred more photos I’ve taken in the past year.

During the rest of the summer I will be working on a new series of drawings, which I hope to outlast my previous half-assed attempts at finishing a series due to my course workload and other extenuating circumstances (read: embarrassingly long artist’s block coupled with pure unadulterated sloth). In any case, there will be that and a new approach to my work in general. Part of that includes taking a percentage of money earned from selling my prints and donating it to the HSI/HSI Canada. Once I have my pieces done, I shall work on opening the shop once more. More on that later.

Hope everyone on this side of the hemisphere is enjoying their summer ^_^

It has been a while since the last update, but there [hopefully] will be more, as I will have more time to work on additions to the “December Solstice” series. Good work to those who had exams this month, and Happy New Year!

No photos this time, for I would need to reinstall Photoshop to make borders for them =(

I will have photos on the next post =)

Some of you may have noticed that I’ve changed kaavie’s layout. If not, you are missing out on all the extravagant fun so here is the link just in case you forgot =): http://kaavie.com/. Aside from the layout, the first piece for my new series of work titled “december solstice” is now uploaded to kaavie, so feel free to stop by the portfolio to take a peek.

I will likely be working on the second piece tomorrow, so expect it sometime tomorrow or a couple days after, depending on the proportion of my motivation versus sloth.

Here is an adequate example for sloth:

It looks like there will be some changes with the portfolio site layout-wise. Since I’m beginning to have more content, I want the site to be easier to navigate, so expect something new in the coming months. I’ve also added some selected photos to kaavie and will work on adding more drawings–namely the new series–as things progress.

I am however unsure how much work I will get done being lucky enough to live three blocks from the fire department and very close to a street where drunk and loudly nonsensical university students like to frequent…but for now it’s late, so good night!

During the time between May and now I’ve not been working much on my current concentration. I’ve decided to end the series in order to begin anew, this time with a theme less obscure than the last. I will discuss this further once things begin to progress. In the meantime I’ve been working on portraits, most of which are off-hand sketches drawn while visiting Quebec this summer. Photos and sketches will be scanned soon and will be posted here instead of the main site, as they are at the moment tentative display pieces.

A graphic novel will be in the works this and the upcoming months ahead. An introductory instalment should be available in 2008 before continuing the bulk of the work.

Some of you may have heard of a game called SecondLife which has become increasingly popular throughout the interweb. Having displayed some of my work there, I’ve been featured in a publication from Italy by Mario Gerosa titled appropriately Second Life. For those of you who are interested in seeing my work in SL, search for “skyscrapes gallery” or the SL Louvre (SL alias: Lenne Moskvitch).

Well, that is all for now; I will however be updating this more frequently in the future, so keep an eye out =)

Now, I leave you with this…
