Pardon My babble ...

...but I seem to be going through a crisis of an artist nature. I produce a a lot of works form illustration to graphic design, comic book art to web design, T-shirt apparel design to Vector illustrations concept art to 3d character models. So I have lot of work and in recent years I have been holding off on pushing any of it because I wanted to put it in an artbook. But, it is increasingly hard on me to look at my art I have set aside for an artbook or a sketch book that is almost 2 years old and see good work or work that represent what I can do.

So my question, my queue is if you think one should hold showing the artwork to be shown exclusively in an art book or just put it out and if an art book comes up collect your best put it out. Don't worry about exclusivity and just be an artist.

Just something that is knocking around in my head. I sitting here on 200 or so various art works for projects that may or may not happen. I'd rather be see that than wait to see them if a book or two get out.

2010 and Beyond

Damn I am late in the updates but wanted to wish everybody happy holidays and definitely HAPPY NEW YEAR.

And with one big breath good bye to 2009, you have not been the best year.

but New Day, New year, New Decade, Lets Go.

On to the art as I do every Year, I knock out a single piece of art at the stroke of midnight. This years is IMMFHO is 100x better that last years, In fact I may color this one. I have yet to do that on any of the pieces I have done at the beginning of the year. Last years art was utter crap and basically that's the way the year went.

No name but I love the way in turned out and even slapped some grungy old paper on it for fun.

hope 2010 is great for all we all need to be in one way or another.
