Kick it off with some boobies...



Since my favorite thing in the world is my Tablet PC, I thought I'd share some of my life drawings I've done recently with it. I still know I'm pretty slow with getting detail down. The tablet is partly to blame, your hand just isnt quite as adept when pushing a plastic stylus across a plastic screen surface as it is with charcoal on newsprint. You can use your whole arm for each stroke when drawing on a big paper pad, and here I'm using my wrist a lot more. But enough excuses. I just need more practice, plain and simple. Plus I could go on for hours about how utterly kick-ass and irriplaceble the tablet PC will be to so many artists in the next few years, but I'll save that banter for later...

Word Up, my homies?


Hey there! Everybody and their moms all have Blogs now. So I figured I'd give it a shot. To people who don't know me, I'm from Las Vegas, NV (born and raised!) and am currently about halfway through a cross-country trek to Canada. Amazingly, I have been accepted to Sheridan Institute's freakin INSANE animation program. This fall I start a 4-year degree in what I've always dreamed of doing, and I plan on posting my progress here on this site. This is mostly so mom and dad and everyone else can see that all the money and support I've gotten hasn't gone out the window. But I'll also be commenting on my struggle to adjust to the rigors of Canadian life, how much I'm jealous of my classmates, and so on and so forth. Its gonna be a trip!
