past, present, future.

J'ai voulu un oiseau s'envolerait,
Et ne chante pas en ma maison toute la journée;

Ont applaudi mes mains sur lui à la porte
Quand il me semblait que je n'en pouvait plus.

La faute doit en partie ont été en moi.
L'oiseau n'était pas à blâmer pour sa clé.

Et bien sûr, il doit y avoir quelque chose de mal
En voulant faire taire n'importe quelle chanson.


The Minor Bird by Robert Frost.

So I have been working on some new stuff but I wanted to gather all my older sketches and roughs together so that I can reflect a bit. I also don't think a lot of these are bad, they just have never been used, so I slapped together a postage board type theme together to display briefly some of my older and unused pieces. I choose the Minor bird because it is a poem about a bird that is singing outside a mans house and for some reason he wants it to go away. I get that impression a lot by people who see my works and shit all over them.
Well dick holes I am not going away so your just going to have to keep making ugly faces until you except that I am here and there is shit you can do about it.
I will have more coming up. and in the mean time I am getting something's ready for my DA account. In the mean time I will be re-posting a lot of my older water colors back, but I am going to be selective about what I post.
I am also working on some new war hammer fan art, so hold your breath.

The end of the road.

Most people when they hear me ramble about the weird things in my day are highly skeptical. Well personally I don't know if I would believe me either. So walking to the bus stop one day I found this dead cat in a trash can and it made me think about life in general.
Is this what's at the end of the road for us? Develop through life only to be discarded as trash? Well what did you except? Don't tell me you thought your would live forever and everything would be fantastic, that's laughable. What about the half eaten banana? You ever think of the asshole who peeled it and chucked the other half away?
Well any way that's my deep and intellectual chat about life this week. And its a piece of proof to the little things I notice in my day. He kind looks peaceful right? I suppose it doesn't matter how you slice it, we all end up in the trash at one point. The trick is making sure that people are not looking when your there.  This is the third dead house cat I've found at the side of the road. Pretty miserable, and to think one day you'll be in the same pose, only you wont have the fortune of having a casket made of cardboard boxes and a steel drum. You get this shitty pine and carbon fibered box that they chuck underground to forget about.
Well I hope this was deep and made you think about something's. Life isn't fair, get used to it. All you can do is hunker down and blast your way through it, and by the end of the road you have something to show.
Working on some neat stuff also, but I am going to be putting together a book and stuff.

Le monde terrible.

Ah my terrible little world. Here's some work I managed to muster up on a scratch board. I know its a terrible photo, but what can I do?

Anyway I have been sketching and doing other things with my time aside from being depressed and trying not to erase everything I am doing. this piece isn't finished yet but I wont continue it on this board. Ill find something a bit nicer to use, so I can get that texture out. But this time your thinking, "man this is cheap, is he using cardboard?"

You caught me, yes this is done on card board, rather that card board was originally intended to be scratch board for all rough garbage, Anyway I have to add some back round elements and a little more detail that I will do in a later one. I have a few new water colors I need to post once I figure out how to move stuff around in this crazy platform called windows 8. In the mean time here are some better photos.

 
 

Boards of Canada - Farewell Fire

Feeling down lately. Good to be sad sometimes.

Hiatus.

Im still technically on hiatus, but I was doodling around and thought these pieces where cool so I posted em here. I will be doing some freelance work, but until I get a green light I wont be posting them here.  I've been busy with house stuff and the cold weather is making work slow, so I am mostly playing around and trying to network.

Just some rough concept stuff I was playing with. Enjoy.

Brutal Ardour

School is just about over. Now I have serious choices to make.
What will happen beyond this point is exciting, and starting a new business is going to be awesome. I am going to try to follow the path of Brian Eno, and hope that people will follow me into a new place. Its been a long trial through the schools network of brutal critiques and harsh criticism, and I have fought tooth and nail to make it to this point to finally be recognized as an accredited artist. But now that I am here I want to forge my own path into a new and exciting realm of work, when I get there I hope you can join me.
As I had stated previously, I am a master of reinventing myself. I will keep working, and hopefully soon I can start posting up old work I had on before. I am also creating a book, and the story is almost done.

Onward to Golgotha

Lets get ready to slap some iron. The piece above is the same piece, but different stages. I swear to Christ if I hear the term DUTCH ANGLE again I am going to give that person a Dutch oven.
I changed my head piece, give me a Bonner up if you approve. Lately I've been ask to over work my art, and I am half way tempted to get extremely angry, but I don't have time to be as angry as I should be. I have work to do, and so do the rest of you. I am still busting my ass but not on work that I want to do. School work is turning my schedule into a perpetual nightmare and I find myself making more pieces for other people then focusing on my portfolio. Not that making work for others is bad....but I am not making their portfolio either....know what I mean? After critiques I find that the changes people want me to make, are changes that make my work look like theirs. I am not here to do someone else's portfolio. Anyway that's enough complaining from me, on to the upbeat stuff.
Good news is I have abandon all petty work and I am doing my own stuff secretly..."don't tell anyone or I'll break your fucking legs". I had to get out of my slum, I couldn't stand being surrounded my so much negative stuff all the time, it was killing my work. So I took it back and hid it away, and I am giving the school nothing but the shit they love to eat all day. Digital reprints of stuff people have done already...TA DA.I also plan to get back to work on my book, because I want to publish by the end of the upcoming summer 2013 and I still have a lot of work to do.
Also shout out to my visitors from Latvia, France, and Germany. I do notice who comes to visit my blog and I do appreciate you taking time out to see what I am doing. So look forward to some new stuff, but not anytime soon. I will more then likely be able to catch up in my work once the semester is over, so check in every now and then ...you never know I might post stuff up just for wiggles.
Also if you are from a different country you can add me anytime, I don't bit. Its nice sometimes to have watchers.
Well that's about it, hope everything is going well.
See ya later alligator.
