War Fish The image to the right is a preview of my current project, which I haven't really figured out a name for yet. The concept is relatively simple, just a fish in a military tank, attacking his reflection on the aquarium wall. Yeah, not much of an artistic message, but this image is mostly for aesthetics (not to mention it was a project I started long ago and never finished). I've already spent more time on the piece than I thought I would, so I'm looking forward to wrapping it up and moving on. Final render to be posted soon!

So, what happened to the spring deadline? That's a serious question, since I can't even remember when spring passed me by. Without going into too much detail, things were still stressful at work (yay for putting out a fire), though other events superceded my interest in jump-starting my gallery. However, things have recently begun to settle down to a more comprehensive pace, so I've been pushing myself to get back into my art and I've produced a few pieces that I'm happy with. Getting a new laptop helps too.

Now, you may be wondering where these pieces are; if you weren't you wouldn't bother to even read this blog. I'm still adding the final touches to some of the images I mentioned, and even then I just haven't had a chance to upload them to my gallery. But they'll be up in the next week or two, and from then on I intend to keep a constant flow of work coming... Or at least provide preview images of current works-in-progress.

dead tired Although I regret to say it, the growth of this site and my album will be slower than I had hoped for, at least for now. Things have been somewhat stressful at work, and I've been getting a fair amount of overtime as well. The combination leaves me exausted by the time I get home, with a greater interest in going to sleep and dreaming of ideas, rather than bringing them to reality. Hopefully the work load will lighten up soon, I'll be able to stabilize my sleeping habits, and finally get back into production.

I have a lot of plans for personal improvement this year, even if they are a little delayed. I expect my plans to gain major momentum once spring starts rolling in, so be sure to check in often.

I just finished the about information page, completed the gallery above, and added the final design touches with a few simple backgrounds. Now it's just a matter of time before I officially launch the site.
reopening!

wagon_BtAnd so I've started over. Again. Of course, I have nobody else to thank for the new site but my buddy Dave and his web designing skills, which are made of win and awesome. Although the colors and overall theme that I've set up are drastically different than what he had in mind. There's a valid reason for this though; I wanted a change of pace. A change from the creative stupor that I've been drudging through for over a year now. New year's is generally celebrated as an opportunity for new beginnings, and as such I felt it was about time I had a site that matches my personality appropriately... Somewhat simple, slightly obnoxious, and full of surprises.
