I’ve been playing a game on my iPad called Draw Something – it’s surprisingly fun and has held my interest for a couple of weeks now. It’s also rekindled my interest in drawing, so double-win.

I’ve started a tumblr of all the goofy drawings I’ve been doing in the game if you’re interested. And if you want to play, I’m sgchipman, of course.

Hey, look at that – a month exactly since I last worked on this one. It’s been a busy month full of things that keep me away from drawing.
