Time has left few clear memories from when I was four years old, but there is one recollection that has not faded. I remember drawing a three-headed dog in the dirt with a stick; an awful thing - this beast - all fangs and fire. I was scribbling away with all the intensity of Dr. Frankenstein in his lab when the Devil hopped up on a rock to watch ( Read more... )

Out of no where last week a girl told me I had nice eyes. It felt like such an odd occurrence I was actually momentarily stunned I think. Today I got an email from a friend who out of the blue decided to tell me that she thought I looked very handsome, and that I looked great in all of my pictures. It seems strange to get compliments like that. I ( Read more... )

If you look up procrastination in the dictionary you'll find a picture of me. For months I've had this entry deadline for Spectrum http://www.spectrumfantasticart.com/ looming over me. It's a yearly art competition for sci-fi and fantasy artists. I'd consider it the most ( Read more... )

Yeeaaah, so the warranty company is refusing to reimburse me due to a slight misunderstanding of proceedure. Even though the repair is a covered repair, and they WOULD have covered it, because I missed calling them before the repair was finished to get an authorization number, they will not pay.

Bam, lost money to register the car. End of October I walk back to my car after Flux to find my car gone. Towed for back taxes (on a car I didn't have anymore and tax that was ( Read more... )

I've been reflecting a bit more about the art instructor that passed away last week (see my previous entry about that). He once said "I'm not an artist, I'm a painter. Picasso was an artist." It's a distinction that I think most people don't think about, even those into art. They ARE different things. Even though I'll often SAY I'm an artist, the ( Read more... )

I'm back from visiting Maine as of about 4am last night. It's wonderful to see family, I don't get to go often enough, although I have to admit I never quite know what to do with myself when I'm there. I don't have friends in the area anymore, and there's only so much the family can do to keep me entertained, which leaves me with too much time ( Read more... )
