I had the pleasure of designing one side of a compilation vinyl for my friends over at PRF (The Electrical Audio forum: http://www.electrical.com/)
This is the result.

BlueCanvas.com
Saturday, April 4th, 2009
Blue Canvas is an online art community that I just discovered. Don’t be fooled by the cheezy web design, there are some top notch artists on the site. In fact, it’s got nice international representation. Out of 10 artists I viewed only 1 was from the US.
Yes, yes, I added myself (and my paintings) to their ranks. You can view my gallery HERE if you want to.
… on a sidenote: I want to be in a band called : ITALIC DRAGON

Josh Keyes is on fire
Saturday, April 4th, 2009
SO… it’s 5:30 am and I can’t sleep. I’m facing my third bout of illness this winter and I’m waiting ( and praying) for the theraflu to kick in.
In the mean time, I thought I’d showcase Josh Keyes. His technical skill is… well, see for yourself. Dude knows how to draw (and paint). I especially like his use of isolation and (human) perspective… This is how most of us experience animals, isn’t it? In tidy little boxes behind safety glass?
No wonder the environment is in trouble. Humanity is experiencing some serious disconnect.

I LOVE ILLUSTRATION
Friday, February 20th, 2009
So being a full time freelancer, I’m looking at ways of diversifying my income – especially supplementing my large project based paychecks with smaller more frequent paychecks – the trickling stream method, if you will.
So, one of my strategies to create passive income is through the sale of stock illustrations and flash files. There are number of sites that specialize in this sort of submission / payment method. They get paid. You get paid. Clients get high quality work for affordable prices. Everybody wins. Two excellent examples that I plan to participate on are:
www.flashden.net
www.istockphotos.com
Here is my first submission. It only took me a few hours and was so much fun to work on.
I LOVE ILLUSTRATION.
I love it so much, I’m going to actively seek out more illustration jobs. It’s such a lovable combination of arty, imaginative and potentially lucrative.
Watch out illustration world, here I come.
