This week I've returned to the office to train new employees and it's been physically exhausting as I usually start the day standing during a long presentation and then spend the rest of it walking around answering questions. Most evenings I barely managed to eat a bowl of yoghurt before I fall asleep on the couch. It's been mentally rewarding though; we've selected a great bunch of 'students', none of them have any experience with GIS (Geodata Information Systems) and it's been a joy to teach them all I know:) I also love that I get to cycle to work again!

Having to adjust to the Corona measures is still a bit tricky, as I have to do my explaining from a safe distance and I can't simply grab their mouse to show them what I mean on the screen by doing an example drawing. But I happily wear my funky map-patterned mask for one-on-one talks and I found this lovely berry-scented hand desinfectant that also amuses me.
Now that everybody is settled in, things should calm down a bit. My fellow tutor is on digital stand-by and we plan to have the new people interact with him even more next week to take the biggest pressure off. I still have two major presentations to give, but I'm actually looking forward to those, as I get to talk about a subject I love and I really enjoy sharing knowledge:).

This weekend I will be finishing the final version of the paper story-banner for my first SPN_J2_BigBang artwork of 2020 which will be revealed after the weekend, dundundunnnn. I haven't been able to work on that during this busy work week and I also haven't had time to check up on all the awesomeness that has already been posted in the [livejournal.com profile] spn_j2_bigbang. Go give all creators there some love if you can!


I did manage a few creations for Land of Art; creating graphic designs is as relaxing as a lovely hot bubblebath: it's instant pleasure and it clears my mind. I found some gorgeous pics of Jeffrey Dean Morgan/John Winchester to play with (I have a bunch left to fiddle with too, woohoo!). Of course there's also a CSI Tumblr design plus bonus Hannah Gadsby!
These were all made for Hide & Seek, where you make graphics based on given themes. Each piece you make is a vote for that theme to be included in the next round. I spread my votes across three themes: Looking Up / Vintage / Action. Can you tell which is which?

As we used to say and it still holds true: comments are love!

So how have y'all been doing? Still social distancing and working from home? What's going on in your part of the world?
