so, work is more hectic than usual but the drawings keep coming. i got to find a way to put painting into my routine. i think thats the only way i'll get to do more paintings. the only other time i do put color to a drawing is when there is a hot girl that i have crush on is involved. anyway, so far this year has been far from boring. have gotten some new models and made some new friends. been itching to to travel. going to miami in september and hoping to go to california soon.
december 03
decided to put a picture of me and cora as a cover. its been along time coming. debated about it cause i dont want to make it seem like i'm living in the past. but she was a big part of my life. come the 20th of this month she'll be dead 14 years. and i still miss her. on to brighter news. i applied to be in the walk of shame at the emerald con in seattle. me and a friend, ed, will be sharing a table. i'll have prints, stickers, t-shirts, and pins. i'll be dressed up either as a dog or cat. not sure yet. me and ed hope to attract some attention. two of my best friends got engaged. brian and jen. wish them the best. known them for almost as long as i've lived in seattle. god knows how they put up with me. well how anyone does for that matter. i like to think i'm one of the botched and the bungled.
august 15

i've been busy as hell drawing wise as of late. got my first show coming up next month. hopfully the reception will be great. i'll be raffleing off a framed original. the money will go to a friend that really needs the money. the reason behind it is because the last two paintings i've sold were for friends that had to pay off medical bills from cancer. one of them survived the other one didnt. so if i'm going to make money off my art i want a little going to someone who needs it. so come down, get drunk and buy a raffle ticket if not a print. hope everyone is doing good these days. oh, i'll be in miami in july. cant wait. i miss my brother.
feb 25

may 23
i'm moving to a new place one the 30th. its on capital hill. cant wait. going to start takeing the bus more. gas is getting out of hand. i've notice a high strungness in myself and others. i think everyone is hurting money wise and they're takeing it out on the people around them. i'm doing ok as of late in the financial sence but not in the emotional way. alot of personal stuff going on in my life so there might be a drop off in drawings posted. i realy things get better soon for everyone.
april 13
so, life is very productive these days. drawing alot and actauly painting. got some big projects lined up. hopeing to finish one in the next couple of days. then i have to save up some cash for the next one. cause its going to be expensive to make. moveing into a new place soon. its going to be more expensive but closer to work so hopefully save on gas. maybe i'll take the bus more. have some shoots lined up this month.

its april fools and for those who know me, know i hate pranks. so as far as fake holidays go this one blows the royal cock. who ever invented it was a douche and possibly a bully. that said... i have finaly put a second section to the painting section and the suicide section is going to get started once i finish a big project that i'm doing right now. i'm trying to keep my drawing up as well as do my projects. i'm finaly getting off my ass and growing some balls and doing bigger projects. its a combination of brian and apnea. i'm actualy fucking around with oils again too. there are just some thing digital cant do. i miss getting my hands dirty. cant wait to put up the stuff i'm working on. i'm really happy these days. its a rare thing and i'm greatfull for it.

february 1
this year is shaping up to be a good one. nothings in stone yet but i have a bunch of good things comeing up in the comeing months. first the more concrete good news. i'm going to be makeing and binding my own books. best part is i found a place that will sell them. now i just got to get off my ass and do it. the next two big things are less for sure, one more than the other. first the less concrete, i might be getting an exhibit at a gallery in portland and the second is more a for sure thing cause i talked to her is that the infamous APNEA is going to pose for me in march. FUCK YEAH!!! if anyone reads this email me and wish me luck.
january 15
fresh starts, who can ask for anything more? i cant. got rid of some baggage. i was once told "rejection is one thing, rejection from a fool is cruel". Cora spoke the truth. i hate being right about certain things. although i've been blind to alot of things. but now i'm good and buried. this really is the start of a new year. but one thing i've learned is who my friends are. linda you are the sweetest thing. now i'm on to new things and new lessons. life is good again.
december 27
well things don't look good for our hero. but i'm not saying he didnt see things comeing but come on. he's one of the botched and the bunggeled and nothing good comes to them. well not for too long of a time. its ok though, i'll ask the first question for everyone. on a brighter note new year coming up. we'll see what torures that holds. most likely more rainy days and razor blades.
december 10
well haven't updated this thing in a while. mostly do to lack of internet knoledge, but thank god for brian and his vast wisdom and generosity. can't thank him enough for everything he's done for me thru out the years. page 11 will be filled soon. that and another series. in other news, my birthday was a blast got drunk and puked. can you ask for anything more on a birthday? work has been kicking my ass of late but i dont care because i have a girl in my life. she is amazeing and a bag of chips. going to miami in jan or feb, not sure yet. either way i miss my family.
september 09

febuary 13
got back from cali on thursday and have yet to catch up and get into a rhythm of drawing again. my trip to miami has been pushed back to may thanks to my brother. but speaking of SLO. my trip to california was a blast. due mostly to kelley, who annoys and cracks me up at the same time. the girl can do no wrong.
january 12
