Just finished a little digital painting for the guy who made me this website you’re looking at.  He’s writing a science fiction novel, and this is a scene from it.  Check it out in the “Digital” section.  And check out his website, too.

I can’t believe I had never heard of this man before.  I had heard of Ridley Walker.  I had heard of Turtle Diary.  I had not, however, put two and two together and determined that they were written by the same man – A man who has a certain flair for the uncanny that I find inspiring.

More animal fact sketches, just because:

…OK, I think I’m done with these now.

Some researchers made a video of the way space would warp one’s view if you were falling into a black hole. The universe is weird, man!

Apparently the grid is just to show the way space-time is warping. The color of it indicates red shifts or blue shifts… I love to be reminded of the strange things that can happen outside human experience.

…It makes me feel like this (Got this program called EZ-Toon I’ve been playing with…):

Now that I’ve had a chance to sleep on it, I’ve realized the preceding post had far too many puns in it; someone may get the mistaken impression that I am a math teacher, or your bachelor uncle you only see once a year. This sketch should get the taste out of your mouth:

The reason this little guy is incredulous is because this site finally has its regular domain name again – Now I can actually go about advertising it. Awesome. And major thanks to Kris Truitt of Kookies and Kreme for the amazing web design.

I know it’s half a decade old, but “Ten” by cLOUDDEAD is possibly the best album I have heard in years.

Just got an email saying that while I was a finalist for the Gershwin Hotel Artist-in-Residence Program, they decided to go with someone else. Poo. I’ll have to shop around my idea some more to see if I can get a grant to build it. And I’ll try again in October; I’m not exactly low on gallery-style ideas right now.

In the meme-time, here are three puns about bees:

There comes a time in every man’s life when he has to draw adorable cartoon hamsters for a childrens’ video game. Check one out in the Digital section.

This is, of course, everywhere, but it’s too good not to post:

A few sketches I did for an online art “jam.” Here are some facts about the animal kingdom I got off Wikipedia:

Started some graphics for a kids’ video game about hamsters, so this may be the first of many animal-related posts.

Hair Metal was fun.

(Recycling this from an online art exercise.)

Added a drawing to the (gasp) Drawings section. It was in the blog earlier, but it’s dropped off the radar, so to speak, and people seem to react to it as if it were gallery-worthy.
