Something a little different today. I've been getting a little bored with working so clean, so I dirtied this one up with a little Photoshop trick I learned from Sam Weber. I like the result a lot. I also drew it a little differently than I normally would thanks to the influence of Kris Chau.
I've used the word "little" five times in this post so far.
Only a little while left until graduation! I'm a little uncertain what the future holds. This sentence is taking it a little too far.
More new art soon!

Man, I feel great. There are a million billion things that should be causing me stress, but they aren't doing good enough because I'm likely to just start dancing.
I have loads of new pages today in the Sketchbook section. I've been learning to use some new tools and getting back to good old-fashioned life drawing. This is my bread and butter.
I finally joined The School Of Ill. Sir Hulkower saw it fit to make me an admin there, that's an awfully big compliment.
More soon!

Hey everybody, I have another piece of retro for you all. New today is a special tribute to the classic melodies that came out of a little place called Motown. I swear, I do have the ability to relate to my own generation's interests, I just choose not to use it.
I'm just feeling orange today I guess.

Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me. This is my first day as a 22-year-old, and I find the age to be a little bit of a let down. Last year I became allowed to buy drinks, what do I get this year? Gray hairs maybe.
I'm working on a secret project. Hopefully, if all goes well, when I'm done with it I'll be much, much better at the whole process of making art. If not, then I guess I'll stay in the same place. Sadly, the project is so secret that none of you are allowed to see it. I'm spending most of my time on it so updates may come a bit more sporadically for a while.

Aaugh! Who had the bright idea to bring pink eye into the middle of a crowded room? I'm infected in both eyes, I'm having trouble seeing, this is the grossest thing to happen in years. I thought only little kids got pink eye!
I expect delays while waiting for my eyesight to return.

I finally finished the piece I've been working on for the Take Back The Music anti-hipster movement. It's a CD cover for an album of music that was shanghaied by hipsters. For years this music could only be enjoyed by those who were "too cool" to enjoy it, but no more! We're making a stand and taking the music back! We're geeks and we like Devendra Banhart too! Get used to it!
