i’ve come to realization of the years that it’s ok to be depressed every once in awhile.  i’m not talking severe depression, just the occasionally sad/bad day that really heightens your emotional state.  there’s something to be said about caring so much that it can get you sad.  now, very critical and crucial thing is to snap out of it eventually!  for me, feeling depressed is only ok if i can quickly snap out of it – and use it to motivate myself some.  whether it’s to build stronger relationships or go live life more somehow, it’s important to transform that negative emotion into something positive.  besides, just watching tv and eating ice cream feels good every once in awhile!

artwork-wise, i continue my exploration of body movement and body language.  in this strip it was important for me to focus in on finn and elle and see how they communicate to each other, in a way that’s reflective of a now long relationship.  pretty happy with the first panel.
