Summer Lovin'

I only title this summer lovin' in reference to the impending doom that is Sandy.  I like most people are not that worried since Irene was kind of a breeze, at least for those of us in the city.  This might give Sandy the window of ease she needs to really come in and destroy though.  Who knows, we'll see soon enough.

Apologies for not post more recently.  I didn't realize I had 6 drawings waiting to be scanned in and posted or I would have done this a few days ago.  I also have felt a great lack of caring towards most things as of late which has impeded my regular blog posting.  But enough about sad things, lets get to the good stuff that you came to see!  6 Fishes!

I am really please with most of these.  I hope you all enjoy.  Thanks for looking!      

Hall of Legends

Well I must say we had quite a good time with my mother in town.  While the UN is was cool and all I would say the crowning glory was the tour of Madison Square Garden.  Mom met a guy who works there on her recent trip to Vegas (she was at an arena managers conference).  Needless to say he gave us a private guided tour of the entire building.  We went from the theatre below the arena (2nd largest theatre in the city only after Radio City), to the very top, to right next to the ice.  Yes they were making the ice for the first time to get ready for Hockey season.  We got to see the locker rooms for the Knicks and the Rangers, as well as the hallway where every famous musician walks down before they go on stage.  Crazy awesome, a lot of history in there.  We also went to the Guggenheim, where there was a really excellent Picasso show that was very insightful.  As much of his work that we see I have to say the man was truly amazing.  Anyway enough about me, look at my drawings!

5 Ma UN 2000

  Sorry for the delay in posting.  I wanted to have 5 fishes for you all this time.  Long story short  the 5th one took me a couple of days to finish.  Either way They are all done now.

Ma is in town for a couple of days.  Not sure what all we are getting into tomorrow, but I am sure we will have a good time either way.  I know Tuesday we are touring the UN as well as Madison Square Garden which should be pretty awesome.     

I also broke 2000 page views.  Thanks to you all for looking! 

Being sick makes you sound sexy

I apologize for the retardation of the flow of my blog postings lately.  Between being gone and now being sick for the past 4 days I have not a a lot of vim and vigor.  I have actually felt bad enough that I am taking some medicine.  For those of you who know me that tells you how bad I feel.  I will say that being congested does give me kind of an Issac Hayes or Barry White kind of sound.  I think it really gets the ladies going.  Well that's that, so here are some Fishes!

   The last one is quite big.  Its about 11 inches long.  It took quite a while, but I had fun with it.  The second again I really like the intestine type feel thing.  The first I think explains itself.  Hope you enjoy.  More fishes to come. 

I MADE IT!!!

This is gonna be short.  Check out the best site in the world, JetPens.  I made their blog! Artist Highlight yo!

It has begun...

Alright my faithful few, as promised I am going to let you in on my next project.  The working name so far is "100 Fishes".  It is going to be pretty self explanatory, 100 fish drawings.  The kicker is that though the drawings are individual and self sufficient, they are ultimately meant to be seen as a single large piece that will cover as much space as it needs.  I am not sure how large it will end up, but I am excited none the less.  I also am not sure how long the project will take to complete, but I hope you will follow along on the journey and put up with my fish drawings over the next few months.  Either way I have already begun, so I will show off my first 3 fishes. 

Thanks for looking and let me know what ya think!  Thanks

Weddings and Chickens

Sorry for my brief hiatus.  I try to keep this thing fresh, but I have been out of town the past few days attending a wedding.  Have no fear, I am back at it.  So... the first image came as a result from not doing any bird drawings lately.  I thought I would take a different approach to this one.  I am really happy with some of the things going on, and there are some things that will be changed with the next. 

  

   The second image comes as a response to the wedding that I just attended.  Two friends of mine just tied the knot and I was lucky enough to be there.  We had a blast and I got to meet some really cool people.  Most importantly I got to dance, a lot.  There were a lot of cool untraditional twists to the wedding so I thought why not an unconventional portrait.  Anyway I hope they will enjoy it.  Congrats Kelly and Kenny!

   Lastly, after 7 months of being in limbo between projects, I have decided what my next venture is going to be.  Oh, but don't think I'm gonna give it away just yet.  You'll have to catch the next blog to find out :)
