So I don't really think anyone reads my journal, but I was wondering if anyone want to do a joint piece? I'm open to anything/any media/anyone, I just want to do some art work with people.

Anyone willing to give it a go?

Dare I say that I'm back? It seems like whenever I write a journal entry (though I admit they are few and far between) I always say I'm back and then disappear for a lifetime, hah. Well, this time, I'm hoping that's not the case.

I just got a new camera which means I'll be able to take more reference shots to get inspired for more work.

I'm going camping this weekend in Utah, so it should be quite the "cleansing" weekend of all the crap every day life likes to throw at us.

Anyway, hope this journal finds you well!

Hey everyone.

Sorry for the recent absence, but it's probably going to prolong a little more.

I've recently just moved to Vegas and things have been crazy with getting settled and the new job and all. Needless to say, it's been hectic.

So I've got several different ideas for projects that I'd like to do.

One- commission
Portrait of a week old infant, traditional art

Two- a drawing of a character of mine

And then a few others that I haven't completely figured out yet

Anyway, if anyone wants to do a trade or a collaboration or even a commission let me know! Because my job is now to work with computers, I'm dying for some artistic stimulation!

Cheers!

Yep! That's right! I've just got back from walking and receiving my BA in technical theatre! So that's kind of exciting!

Aside from that, my new love of cars is growing! I can't help it. I find myself buying Auto Traders for muscle cars and other magazines whenever I pass them in stores or gas stations. I know virtually nothing about cars, but I'm currently trying to save up for my first project car. I've already started buying resto books to get ready. I'm hoping my drawings of cars will improve as well. Who knows *shrug*

I've got several things in the works.

Working on:

Kate Beckinsale Portrait- Traditional Drawing

(Request) Team Musiek- Logo

(Commission) Orchid Painting- Acryllic Painting

'69 SS Chevy Camaro with L12 hood- Traditional Drawing

Clubs:

Well, I finally got that piece done that I was talking about. Keith Richards, what a fun guy to draw! Unfortunately, I couldn't start where I usually do when drawing. See, I'm left handed which means I have a bad tendency of smearing my work. (Very annoying) so I had to start on the right hand side and go left. I started WAY too dark which through the shading off on the rest of the piece. I'm happy with a couple of things with it, though it didn't turn out as well as I'd hoped.

The good thing though is that I'm hoping it propelled me back into my art so I can continue doing it. I still have to think of my next project. I do have a rather large commission painting that I have to work on, but I can't work on just one project or I tend to overwork it. I might try another portrait. I'd like to improve in that area if I could.

Anyway, thanks for putting up with all the craziness


Cheers!
