Cleaning out some of the old stuff in my DA Gallery.
For years now I've thought about starting a separate one as more of a portfolio and more serious work. Still thinking about it though.

Many months ago I started a comic book inspired from some local urban legends that involve a popular cemetery.
The book was intended to be 3 short stories. One of them I was working with my Dad using his photography for reference. Well it's been months since the photos were taken and my Dad cannot locate any of them!
I'm thinking about just printing a short version of the book as just the one finished story, which is only 8 pages.
Any input, anything would be nice.

Holy Shit! Whats up people.
Well I've been busy at work, managing and being the main painter of the airbrush shop at an amusement park. Having a crazy time.
I get 2 days off every two weeks.
But fuck that shit.

I've been working on some digital illustrations and plotting for things to do during the fall/winter.
I may start some screen printing (small orders and 1 color prints) of my own work to push my art and work out there.

I will also be spending a lot of time at Art 101.
What the fuck is Art 101? Well sit the fuck down and I will tell you!
It's a gallery/studio/art classes that some friends of mine have started here in KNOXVILLE, IA. Fuck yeah!
Right now I have some of my work in there and I will be teaching airbrush intro classes in there this winter.
check out the link (the site looks like shit right now, but I will make sure that changes this fall).

My wife is still beautiful, back off dudes!

and I am building up a kick ass T-shirt collection.

I'm selling them out of a specialty store for $5.50 each.
I'd figured I would hook the DA watchers/Friends up with no shipping and a sticker for both.

Email your email, name and address and I will send you a paypal request.

I just realized i havnt journaled since my last birthday, well it was my birthday again big woopty fuck.. I spent all of last month (march) submitting into 2 different contest. failed both. one for the Street Fighter Anniv. fan art book the other was a local radio t-shirt contest. I feel sorry for my wife and my daughter, because it was their time i spent focusing on the 2 contest. I almost thought about giving up art, which would mean to stop living, not ready to do that. So i need to kick my ass in high gear and figure what the fuck i need to start doing.
any suggestions let me know. peace
