I'm coming out....

Of a serious art block. :] thank goodness as well because I was starting to believe I'd lost the ability to draw. Hah. Luckily it came back if not better than before. So I couldn't be happier about that for real.

Not really much to post as of late seeing as how I haven't taken the time to draw a complete piece. I've just been doodling around and things like that. Getting the swing of things.

So here are some headshots to keep you happy.

Enjoy!



Stay up.

Art....

Fast post.

Art Block...

Isn't it great? Not actually. Anyways since I finished up my portfolio it seems I've hit a bit of art block. I can't draw anything decent looking and its making me angry. :/ real angry. Anyways to make up here are a couple of sketches that I managed to whip up [[and I'm not even impressed with them at all]] but still gotta show something. I hope it passes. I hate not being able to think correctly. It sucks.

Stay up.

Brenda D...

Is the coolest person I know.
For real.
One of the best and thats why she's one of my favorite people to spend time with.

Its always something fun whenever she is around and its never dull. She just makes life fun. :D

She's calm, collective, funny as hell, and just all around great. I couldn't ask for a better friend than her. And I wouldn't replace her for anybody in the world. No doubt about it Brenda D. is the coolest person I know. :D congrats loser I mentioned you. >;]
Just kidding but love you loser you're are the bee's knees. Hahaha.

Anyways all things aside. I should have my debt issues cleared up partially [[see last post]] So now I should only have to pay $31 USD to insure that I graduate. :D took hours of searching but I managed to find all of my receipts from the past 4 years for school. Hahaha. Good stuff.

I have new art I'm not to sure if I want to post it or not. And is it just me or are the colors on that spiderman sketch kinda bleh? I hate it so I'll probably just post the pencil version or something. Make some lineart. I don't know.

We recently switched to Vista. After upgrading our computer of course. And now my version of Photoshop doesn't work. :/ how lame is that? Very if you ask me.

Vista seems to have a lot of problems I'm noticing. Besides the cool sleek look and things like that it sure is riddled with problems that make it not worth it. Oh well in due time I guess. I just gotta get used to it or something like that.

Anyways here you go. I'm going to throw some color on some of these but looking at the way they're drawn I'm not to happy with them. :/







































































































And my final piece of this entry. Instead of doing my work like I'm supposed to do I usually see if there is an open page [[usually on the back of a packet]] and I draw. It was fun doing this and I think the end result [[although not finished]] came out looking pretty solid. :] and thats all I can ask for I guess.

Stay up.

Debt...

About to graduate from high school and I figure out that I'm in fucking debt. I knew I was in debt but not as bad as this. I apparently owe them about $135.97 USD. I gotta find a way to come up with the money or else I'm not going to graduate. :/ buy some art? It'd really help out. I'm going to see if I can't get most of this removed because I'm being charged for shit I have no knowledge of. Great. Just great. Life likes to fuck me over really good at times.

My good friend and long time running mate Jesse gave me this interesting card for a gallery. I figured I'd give them a look and see what they're all about. :] could be insightful. Yeah something like that.

Well I have new art [[finally]] it just needs some colors thrown down on it. Then I'll post it so until then here's a Spiderman sketch to hold you over until I get the rest done and things like that.
Enjoy!




Stay up.

12 year old...

Hey there just checking in because its been a while. I do still draw people,
I'm not dead, no I didn't kill a cat, and yes I'm still the same ol' me [[If not a tad bit more grumpier due to aging I guess?]]

Anyways its about time I post something on here since my last post was a long long time ago. The 22nd I believe? Anyways I have a shit load [[and I mean a shit load]] of art to post. You see we [[the seniors at our school]] got the week off pretty much because of standardized testing [[TAKS aka Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills]] and since I passed all of mine I don't have to worry about those babies. Now all I need to do is worry about passing and I'm out of high school! This is my last month at that place and hopefully all goes well, got prom [[where I'll be escorting the lovely and beautiful Erendira :] ]] as well as graduation! Lots of things are going down this month...For real...Busy busy busy. Anyways yeah I have a lot of drawings. I spent my week of drawing [[in between sessions of GTA IV of course]] and thats about it. Hell I'm even drawing while typing this up! Hah. So hopefully I'll have something to show. I know I will actually. Just be on the look out for it!

Moving on...

I recently took a trip to my local comic shop [[I think it was local?]] and decided to pick up a few issues for studies and whatnot. Well they had this little package of 5lbs of comics for 5 bucks. No way in hell I was passing that up. Got some pretty solid stuff. Including some 12 year old Kool-aid! Hahaha some of those comics were as old as I am. If not older. Pretty good buy if I do say so myself. Now most of them just collect dust. Hah. I'm horrible I know. I have browsed though them though and I've seen a lot of valuable things that'll further help me into pursuing a career as a "graphic novelist" comic artist. :] wish me luck!

Speaking of which.

My portfolio. I have no idea whats going on with it...I was supposed to work on it this entire week but I decided to ditch that idea and enjoy my off time. A decision I'll later regret? I don't know. I'm not to particularly [[weird word]] happy with it. Partially because most of the stuff in there is really old and I've improved greatly as an artist from say last year. Bleh. :/ apparently according to the teach I'm to "hard on myself" but I'm only that way with my art because I'm striving to become one of the best. You may something great and amazing when I put pencil to paper and manage to pull something out of my ass. I see nothing but flaws, proportion errors, and all sorts of other things. Thats why I'm hard on myself because I want to be great at what I love to do...Women. >:D hahaha no not women but drawing, art, cartoons and things like that. I don't know. I'm picky. Jeez.

Anyways...

High school drama for me has managed to make a major climb in recent days. Awesome. Just awesome. Friend issues, girl issues, money issues, people issues and all sorts of things like that. Its exhausting. I'm trying to keep my head out of it. But somehow it manages to find its way to me. :/ Lame. Oh well just 6 more weeks and I'm done with High school forever! Yay. But I'm also going to miss it when I leave it behind. :/ oh well it comes with growing up. Yeah something like that.


Also...

I've been talking to my ex's [[the one's that talk to me that is.]] Amy and Jasmin. Amy always has such insightful things, she really listens to my problems and even insists on trying to help me through them, she doesn't just skoff at me and laugh at me or call me a emo bitch or things like that. She actually takes time out of her busy life to help lil ol' me out when I'm feeling down or whatever. I can't thank her enough for that for real. Really great girl. Good beliefs and things like that. Shame we aren't together anymore. :/ Oh well she's found love again and I'm glad for her. :] Anyways the main thing I usually talk to her about is my relationship status and why they never seem to hold or why I can't seem to have love. Of course its always a downward spiral for me because I'm negative when it comes to love I think? But somehow she manages to put up with my shit for a while, offer insight, make me laugh and make me think that things aren't that bad and sooner or later [[better be soon]] I'll actually find someone who'll love me and not want to let go. Of course its false hope; no doubt about it. But its good to have someone give me that false hope for once instead of vice versa. :] makes me feel a tad bit better about myself. Anyways Amy's great. Couldn't ask for a better friend. Still hate being single though. :/ shit sucks because everyone [[and I mean everyone]] has some romance going on. Not me though. For real whats the deal there? I just want the simple things. I want to love and be loved back. Not to much to ask for right? WRONG!

*Sigh* One of these days...One of these days.

I'm tired so I guess this is it for now.
[[I'll try to get the art up ASAP]]

Stay up.
