I'm having too many ideas. My paper for my larger sketch pads is up so I'm drawing over the top of other sketches, which is actually kind of a cool problem to have.

I want to start working on comics, but I'm having a hard time tying to put it into panels and not over detail everything. So far, Dark Tower (Jae Lee/S. King) and Akira (Katsuhiro Otomo) have had my favorite use of panel progression. I also discovered in a clumpy-disaster that the paper I was inking wasn't water proof like I initially thought and killed 3 other sketches as well.

I really want to work on my technique, so if anyone's got anything to say-please do!

I've moved back to my folks house. After my roommate moved out I couldn't keep rent alive. Its cool being back though. Memories flood my mind--there's a stillness out here in the country that I didn't realized that I missed until I came back. I've been working on various projects primarily digital, but I lost the pen to my tablet in the move, so most of everything is done with a mouse. Still doing pencil, not to worry, but I have yet to bust out the paints since I moved home. I also bought some ink and am eager to give it a whirl!

If anyone knows of any worthwhile painting tutorials (digital) throw them past me
I always like absorbing new things

I know I've been floating around on the backwaters of deviant for a while, but dear god I need to make more time for my art. So that is the state of things. No school, no overloading myself with 3 jobs. friends, books, adventures, and art is the alchemy of summer. punctuation is overrated

Hey folks! I'm looking to update soon. I have the time. Working on various projects as usual, just quit work. If you can't beat em' might as well lead em'!







* update *

learning: Japanese syntax, Chinese history, 2D game design, comic alchemy, piano, eastern scale, sabre stance, flamenco style, Tao/Confucius philosophy, pixel art

Okay, so I've been a smidge busy with school and work and I've been promising updated work for a while, so the least I can do is give you guys some sketches. I finally have a digital camera, but no time to use it. I'll update my large works when the semester's up. In other news, I've finally been teaching myself music, (beyond found-sound) and it would be cool to get a site up for all my projects. e.g. art, music, social experiments, and the lot - you know! I've got an cultural-anthro paper due and a fencing tourney next week, so wish me luck! Ooo and I think I found a group to publish a graphic novel I've been working on in secret.
