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.

I am not happy.

Why I am unhappy.
Lately I have been asked and "swaded" to compromise my style of painting. Why is that so bad? Well, its not bad I suppose however compaired to what I was doing before and what I am doing now is......not the same.
Adding more detail, refinement and just over all more is ruining my simple and muddy paintings. can I do detail...yes sir I sure can. However sometimes the best things are the things you cant see. I focus more on shape, color and "the bleed" more then anything. I am not happy wih my work anymore now that I have bounderies and things that I have to do in high rendering.
Its an uphill battle to convince people I can do the things they want...just dont ask for it to be detailed...cause it will look like shit. Anyway this was an add I did for robot wars, it was a school assignment that I over worked and over did and I am not satisfied with this peice at all.
Ill post it on DA also because I dont think this is going into my portfolio. If you compair it to the work I was doing previously in my water color section of work you will understand why I feel this way about my new works.

Stay thirty my friends.

Sick....of being sick

I caught the flu this week, and I am not happy. working around the clock to get a job, finish projects and do school work, then the cherry on my cake is to get so sick Ican't even wake up on time is frustrating.
All i do is drink fluids and piss them out when I am sick, and I don't like being non-productive. I need to be working on something, but being sick has actually had me falling asleep in the middle of work.
Everyone tells me to rest..oh yeah thats real easy to do...rest and watch helplessly from the side lines while your work piles up in a huge heap. I hate being sick, its the biggest waste of time I know, next to an occupy rally. Occupiers sit on there ass all day and do nothing...they must be sick a lot.
Anyway..oh yeah I did mention I am looking for work....well hopefully after the election more jobs will open up for everyone and finding a job wont be as hard as it is now.
Also dont forget to vote everyone, and be safe, who knows if the state department is going to send the black panthers out to threaten people again this year.
Anyway, Hopefully I can keep this flu to myself and everyone can have a wonderful week.

We don't take kindy to stranger round here.

My final semester is horrible, and thats all the good news I got. Its been a rough week, seems like everything that could have gone wrong; has gone wrong. I am running off 6 hours of sleep a night if I am lucky. I wake up at 5 and my day doesnt end until.....whenever.  I had my eyes dialated and that screwed up my day pretty bad. I got tones of work to do but I decided to post up this little gem I made for my last assignment...

Bon Appitite.

Iris - Prophetic

I might be behind in my blog postings, but I am slowly attempting a catch up. I found this video on youtube and i liked it so I posted it along with my newest post. Guess what, this song doesnt belong to me and I dont pretend to own it. relax, I just liked it so I added it...well thats about it, check into my acrylic nightmare and see some new stuff I put up, the photos are shit but you know...its a technology hang-up I am dealing with.

Watercolor is back up.

I post my watercolors back, however insted of posting 2 pages for water color I posted them all on one page. I have some things to edit and my classes have begun so I wont be able to psot as much as I did before. I know my posting where slow to begin with, and I know I have to work hard to get things finished. I am already running behind in a lot of things and I have been delayed a lot by things out of my control, however I will keep working to the best of my abilities to keep this blog current and up to date.
