I have come to the end of my first week of classes. I am tired, but pleased to have gotten posted Florence’s underwear.
It’s actually a simplified version of all the layers Victorian women wore. There should be a bustle and a corset cover and a chemise under the corset. I’m glad I don’t wear so many layers of underwear.
Except when it’s really cold out, then I get close with my long underwear and my heavy wool socks and my jeans and then sweater and coat and hat and scarf.
But not corsets… I wouldn’t want to wear a corset every day. Once in a while might be okay, but not every day.
the .pdfs in this new format are great (definitely something i would like to move toward), but i’m a wee sorry to have to click around every time i visit, in order to see the previous posts. Comic Press won’t run on my website the way i want it to. it’s great for comics, but feels a wee awkward for blogging.
anyway, i really wanted to say that i love the pantaloons and slippers on this one!

I agree that comicpress has some disadvantages, but my frustration with standard blog format was that I felt like the images weren’t center-stage like I wanted them to be. I think if I was writing more about process and dealing more in how I create- much like your blog shows your work in progress- I would not have switched, but I’ve always been more focused on product rather then process and I think this layout does that better. On the other hand, I might change my mind in six months and rewrite everything. Who knows? I am fickle.
