In this month's video, I talk about how to engage more of your intuition when creating your art. It's something I don't really hear about much, but as I get further in my journey I see just how important it is.

This is a sped up video of a painting that I didn't feel was a success. It contains no audio, but I included it this month in the event you wanted to see the process.

This episode is a little different from previous episodes, because rather than talking about the image making process, instead I focus on story. Please let me know if you'd like to see more things on the story/character development side of things, or if you'd rather I stick to the art side only.

In Episode 12 of Creating Kei, I talk more about story, so instead of having a PSD to share, I included a text file with some of my thoughts on story. I also included a character sheet showing a bunch of Kei characters, cuz I wanted to include some pictures for you.
