And...SCENE!

So while I feel like I've had no time to myself, in all actuality I've had a ton and come up with some great ideas and actually finished a painting.

Here it is, from a multitude of different views. Lemme know what you think!

"Siddown an' Shaddap"
30"x36"
Water based Oils and Acrylic on Canvas
Above is the finished version and the best photograph I could take. I know I've said it here before but I'm an absolutely awful photographer. Anyone who wants to come take pictures of my work please do! 'Cuz I suck at it. Below is the same painting and mainly the same photo as well just with the flash on. 'Cuz I suck.
This is just for size comparison. The actual size is 36" (h) x 30" (w)
This is how I add the "drips." I'm sure there's a technical term for this but I don't know it. So they're drips. Also this is the point where see all the mistakes I've made an instead of fixing them I just embrace them.
The painting is resting on my painting sweatshirt. In the winter obviously I paint while wearing it and I use it to clean my brushes. During the summer however it also doubles as a drop cloth.

The beginning of...something?

So yea two days in a row! Wow!

I'm almost a real person now.

Almost.

I should probably stop writing in sentence fragments and not be such good friends with the return key if I want to be considered a real person.

I'm safe for now.

Anyways, I started a new painting last night and this is what it looked like in the morning.



This might look familiar to you, especially if you read this blog with any frequency at all (like at least as much as I update it). Instead of posting the image of the drawing I did of it you can just scroll through the past posts and find it. Or you can can go to my facebook page and read the blog there too!

Seriously it's not hard. The link is right on the top right side of the page. No excuses. No one is that fat or lazy.

Speaking of being lazy, I just got around to downloading a bunch of the Black Keys albums. Holy crap. So good. I highly recommend it.

On the other hand while painting this I was listening to Salt the Wound.

Ack!

Sorry! I know it's been a while since I've updated but my life has just short of literally blown up. First with weddings and teaching (oh yea I teach art to K-2 kids), and then a relationship blowing up in my face, I was accepted, enrolled, and dropped out of an MFA program 'cuz I'm broke. Then school started.

Excuses.

It's not like I haven't been drawing or painting. I've just been distracted from posting. THAT ENDS NOW! One of these drawings is for my friend Revstompy, and his cronies who're putting together a game. So I'm taking a crack at designing creatures. Then there are doodles for future Munny's. If you don't know what a Munny is, well you could google search it, or just wait a few weeks and see the painted ones I post here.

This is me shutting up.

Newest..

It's done, these are just "un-good" cell phone pictures and when I get my camera back from my girlfriend I'll post "real" pictures as well. I also recommend clicking on each picture to get a better look at it.

And here...we...go!

So yea I didn't update yesterday, 'cuz an old friend was trying to help me figure out the business side of the art world. Unfortunately I'm a retard and was barely able to process what she said. Also I'm going away this weekend, I'm gonna try to get it set up so it'll update automatically for me but I'm not sure I can. Anyways, once again I'm struggling with ideas but here are 2 pages of doodles.

Fucking Five

Another day where I drew and had NOTHING in my brain, and was working at the comic shop so I drew more heroes. Unfortunately I still don't have the talent to actually draw heroes, but regardless I plodded along and yelled at both the paper and pencil because it wasn't working right. I can draw, the pen and paper where broken! Yea!

Man I suck.

Anyways, here goes my latest attempt to revive my talent.

An easier Day 3

So this time atleast I had some ideas, though I didn't have the patience to finish one, and the other didn't come out so good. I wanted to make a pathetic looking zombie and a steam punk-esque battle droid because I'm a nerd. I usually hate my filigree but this time I liked it and hated my tech bits. Anyways, here's another 2 pages of me doodling.

Forcing Day two.

Was having trouble of thinking of things to draw.

Day One

So here I am, adding yet another blog into the internets that is already filthy with them. I won't be writing (much) in here this will be for my daily or almost daily (3 times a week minimum) blog. Without further adieu...
