Figure drawing class





I still try to attend figure drawing class every once in a while. They have the "moderated" ones around here, Nyack NY and Ridgewood, NJ. I always suggest to younger artists asking for tips to attend these things and draw of course! Here's some older ones I did.

Shirt STOLEN !!!


Well I got a couple of shirts printed at cafepress to bring to Canada to see how they fared. Well not too good. Except for this one. IT GOT STOLEN!!! OMG!!! Seriously it feels kinda good that the thing was desireable enough for someone to actually steal it. Imagine someone didn't actually steal it? I'd be stuck with this shirt and have a really boring blog entry today. Oh well. The cost of doing business as Will says. Oh. And this is the only one on the planet. So if ya see someone sporting this baby, I think we found the culprit!

I really like skateboarding


So...a friend of mine sez about a year ago..."Wanna go skateboarding?" I figured my daredevil days were behind me. Yet I'm happy to report I tried it and although my lungs and muscles were screamin', the addiction took hold again. I love skateboarding and am completely overjoyed to see most of my skateboard bretheren from back in the day tearing it up as good as ever. The new folks I have met have been wonderful as well and the brotherhood and good times continue to grow. So here's to you, skateboarding. My greatest addiction ever!

Fearless Dawn in CANADA!


Well we just got back from the beautiful city of Toronto and I must say the folks up there are wonderful. The fans cosplay their asses off at that show up there and I guess our gal was no exception. The stunningly gorgeous Dawn B. showed up Saturday morning dressed as...you guessed it...Fearless Dawn! What a wonderful surprise. Our gal worked the booth, signed autographs and greeted fans for most of the day. Again, a big thanks to the real "Fearless Dawn B." for this wonderful surprise. A creator's dream come true!
