30daysNY

its got good stuff like this:

child star

found this great picture online. its totally creepy/wonderful and decided it'd be really good to use with chalk pastels.
picking it up again made me realize how i use to actually like pastels. probably will try my hand with them in a few more portraits and a watercolor mixed media painting.

nuffs 'nuff

Ive decided to go into seclusion.
No television. Limited internet. Facebook done. Friends cut.

Begun clearing the attic to make room for separate stations of creative concentration. By devoting 7 to 8 hours a day, 6 days a week, to mindless but intensive projects of multiple mediums, im hoping to achieve a stable identity of work before my move to the city, bare.
I knew this but needed someone to tell me to do it - thanks matt.
The idea is exciting me and i cant wait to get started.

graphic d****n

this link i got from KSINO sums up nicely the graphic world in the US today.
! communication design is being raped by cheap, easy access computer software with the biggest evil (to me) being stock photography. i can only hope that with a revival of the economy there will be a revival of aesthetics. in the mean time, lets try and keep design from becoming a four-lettered word.

'sup dog?

been loungin all day every day

shucks, imma schmuck

lesson learned; dont go snowboarding in the middle of a commission.
last week i lost a great job to do a series of vector drawings for a guy named Marcos. i havent heard from him in a while and im afraid he switched illustrators when i didnt respond for the day.

also- dont trust Craigslist nanny listings or put your hopes on a hasty apartment move!
youre welcome.
