Preponderance of Professional Preperations

Tomorrow I'm heading into New York to go check out Pratt and Parsons, both schools that I am considering for Graduate School. The former for Design Management and the latter for Design and Technology.

In other news, I finally have my base portfolio built, just need to add and tweak as time goes on. Now to finish up my buisness card.

[Edit]

Well damn.

I have my card finished and portfolio ready to go. I'm starting to feel like a legitimate Illustrator now (bolstered by the fact that I have a friend who has asked me to design a half-sleeve tattoo for him).

Chromatic Application

Took a crack at adding color to the black and white version from before, and I think it's a pretty successful result. going to have to play around with this more and see where this takes me. I may have stumbled onto a new personal technique for generating artwork and Illustrations.



Please let me know what you think, comments and critiques are for me what spinach is for Popeye. Metaphorically speaking of course. It's be impossible to use my Wacom if I had his fore-arms.

Lack of updates

I haven't been posting for a while because I a) have been working my butt off (Quite literally. I think I've almost dropped a pant size) and b) because I stink at regularly updating this sort of thing.

In other news I now have a LiveStream site:
Little Black Sketchbook. I'll try to post times that I'm going to be broadcasting.

That's all for now.

Stones in the Mutha-F***ing Kidney

That's right all, I've been introduced to the closest thing a man can experience to child-birth.

Damn thing came outta nowhere and I felt like I was being stabbed with a HUGE knife from the inside. Took forever for the ER to get me checked in, but once I got inside they set me up with an IV and some meds, forget what. One was an anti-inflammatory, the other was a pain killer. DEAR GOD it was bliss... Now I know why people abuse pain killers.

So long story short it's apparently a 4mm stone from what i understand. @_@

Still waiting for it to pass I think, but I'm feeling a lot better than I was before, partially because of the pills that they gave me I think...

In other news, taking a class at the County College, College Algebra. Taking it to get it out of the way so that i can take a class more pertinent to my Major when i get back to school. Also thinking that i need to set up a place for my art. dA's fine, but they don't allow depictions of sex, and FA's all fine and dandy, but I've been moving away from Anthro art lately, and i want someplace where i can have a single collective archive of my stuff. which makes me think that i really need to sort through my Art folder at some point. i dunno, try to do that at some point soon, maybe tomorrow.

Summer Begins

well, classes are over for the time being, I'm back In NJ, the wonderful state of farm-lands and petro-chemical refineries. working on making a list of things to do art-wise over the summer, painting, sculpting, drawing, etc. Going to be working on interacting anatomy and poses, and got some sketches that I owe people.

that's about it for now.

Welcome to the madness

Welcome to my new art-journal. this is an experiment in order to work on drawing more. The plan is to have something new each day. We'll see how it goes.

Welcome to the madness, and watch out for low-flying insanity.
