That there painting I was working on

8-30-09

Hello, and welcome Cigars and Cigarettes!

This here painting I did for a community project I am happy to say still exists in Sarasota Florida. Look for it in print around those parts in early October...

"Giants Fishing"

I watched Fargo for the first time, and I have to say it made me real proud to be a Minnesota boy (ex-minnesota boy I supose), also I've been musing to all the Rhymesayers guys (Atmosphere, Brother Ali, Doomtree). Sometimes it takes a new situation/lifestyle to understand what you've left behind. This piece is based on the fear that one day I will turn around and everything I know will be gone. To be obtuse "up in smoke" I'm just crossing my fingers that I haven't burnt any bridges. Hahah, now that i've said it aloud it sounds depressing, but it's more contemplative. Thanks for dropping in and checking out my stuff!

...til something else interesting comes up,

"sketchbooking, and notes on 'the hero's journey'"

hey guys,

Siggraph was a fun time, I competed in an art contest and won myself a copy of PS/CS4. (yay) A good time was had by the whole Moonbot crew. We also had some GREAT food....

"BO, BJ, AV, JB"

"moonbot NOLA"

(needless to say, we were having a great time)

On some other cool notes, the "Terrible Yellow Eyes" blog/birthday present is going to be showing a collection of the work at the Nucleus gallery in the greater LA area. Only a portion of the work is going to be selected to be shown so I might not get to be present, but the potential is exciting! Here is a link for more info about the show
