Something that is becoming clearer and clearer to me is my patterns of creativity and production. Like tides in the ocean they rise and fall. Some days I'll pop out a dozen drawings, others days, maybe

Lately I've been having more and more people asking me to draw stuff for them. Commissions for actual money, which is really cool. It's a great sign that I'm improving and that I have something to offer.

Life kept me out and about for most of yesterday but I still managed to get in a little of what I love to do and had to do. My normal art time, when I really focus on drawing and getting things done, was

A laptop that refuses to connect to the internet on a regular basis, a desktop with a busted monitor, and up until recently, an empty bank account. Definitely not a good combination of factors when trying

I gotta be honest right now. I'd rather be creating something. Something with paint. Something that's been nagging me for a while...but, I wanted to get to this thought because it struck me so hard tonight.

I can't believe how excited I am to write this blog today...lol. Once again it's these stupid barriers we erect ourselves that stop us from doing so much. Imagine, getting out of your own way and just

I'm turning into the worlds worst blogger. Well, probably not the worlds worst. But it feels pretty bad not keeping things up to date. But, that's life. The important part, I feel, is that I'm still actually

Nothing. Pure. Black. Empty. Peaceful. Quiet. Then, a breath. Deep, long, filling my lungs. Awareness rises from the depths of unconciousness. Another. I pay attention to each moment of the in. Each moment

The hottest part of the day probably isn't the best time to be out and painting a wall in a concrete jungle, but, that's what ended up happening last Friday. It was a crazy day... I mean really crazy.

Sorry, been out of touch for the last week or so. I haven't stopped creating...well, for a couple days I wasn't drawing or painting but that's because I was up to my neck doing a complex photo shoot for

I've been busy these last couple months with a number of different projects. Between my art, my photography, and my writing, there hasn't been much time to talk about what I'm doing...because, well, I'm

Today I'm kinda tired...might have had something to do with being up until like 3am sketching. I really can't get enough of this stuff. You get on a roll and you just don't want to stop...until you get

It's been a crazy week... wow, I wonder how many times I've started posts like that, hehe. But, it has. I've been going gangbusters as usual so last night I decided to take a little bit of a breath. I

I had like two pages of writing for this post that I just deleted. And I did it on purpose. The deleting, I mean. I'm tired, frustrated, and pissed off. Not about my art. That's progressing nicely, and

Youtube is a great place for inspiration. Follow the videos down the rabbit hole and you can find some really, really cool stuff. That's what I did the other day. Seek some inspiration. I've been kind

So, I think people will like my current obsession with dragons a bit more than they did with my skull phase. I love talking to people about my work, and sometimes when I'm chatting with my parents as to

You wanna know how you get good at something really quickly? Easy...you do it over and over and over again for a very long time. Because, there is no quick way to learn. You need to do it until you can

This weekend I got a bee in my bonnet about dragons. I've been getting more and more interested in ink and watercolor as I've traveled down this creative path and so the logical thing for me to give a

Sooooo...got a little obsessed with watercolor paper and inks one night last week. It was a strange day and I went a lot of places in my head while I worked. I was curious to see how I could play with

Hangovers and writing blogs really don't go together well but I need to catch up on them, hehe. I've been a bit obsessed with charcoal sketching lately. Mainly because it allows me to really relax into
