Nerding out to paper is the best thing in the world. Hanging out with friends and doing it is even better!
See ya!

Photo-shoot: Creative Series 179
This was an amazing project, THANK YOU MIKE HIPPLE!!
We toured Seattle to the recent Queen Anne Mural. The bear head was greatt! It came equipped with has lights inside to illuminate my face and I could hear the wind a-la giant seashell! I felt a little bit like Darth Vader! Ha!
The second location was at Golden Gardens, although beautiful and was so COLD! We did hear seals and that always makes me excited to scan the beach for a glimpse! I really enjoy these photos and wish the best for the Creative Series as it continues in 2012.
Please take a look at the rest of them on his Blog;

Take care!

Selective Salvation Sketch
I used to do these in depth illustrations, not quite stories, but they voiced an opinion in me that I have since forgotten until recently.
Handsome man, although my biggest and most avid supporter often times tells me when I suck and when he knows I haven't given something my all. He is the one that makes me go back over a line or reconsider a color choice or placement. I loathe and respect his opinion even if I don't necessarily agree. Sometimes the artist in me will tell him to trust my decision and show him the completed successful painting. Sometimes the ego in me disregards his opinion later to find out I have wasted 3 hours on something I should have listened to. Handsome has reminded me that these very personal illustrations of mine are important and that I should continue to use them as a way to express my opinions.
Why really I stopped doing these is a number of reasons but I do miss them. In going back to these I have found my hand out of practice and my wit although unsharpened like a disagreed pencil, still working. I feel with practice and the growth of the New Year, these will flourish and with my wisdom of 2012, grow.
Often times your best critics are the ones you love the most and hardest critiques are from yourself. I personally wouldn't have it any other way. The best support an artist may have is honesty.
I love all my supporters, haters, family members and fans. Thank you so much for stopping by my blog, your support makes me really the artist I keep growing to be!
