Shout out to Hastings and Clark

I have finally got the chance to catch up on comics, and Dr. McNinja was the first one I went to of course.  It is not everyday that one runs into a webcomic about ninjas, dinosaurs, and King Radical, and also has a good story to tie them altogether.  I do not remember exactly when I ran into this comic, but it was probably about 3-4 years ago.   Since then it has been on my RSS feed.   http://drmcninja.com/ I also cannot forget about Clark's own comic-Nedroid Picture Diary.  About the wonderful Reginald and Beartato and their relationship.  (Has also been on my RSS feed for quite some time).   http://nedroid.com/ So if you are looking for even more webcomics to add to your list, be sure to add these!  It is well worth the reading, and looking at the styles of artwork. 

No Credit to Thanksgiving...Blerb

I am guilty of this.  For my "Thanksgiving" post, I talked about Christmas gifts.  Oops.   Thanksgiving should be looked forward to and just as celebrated as Christmas.  'Cause frankly, if it had the gifts with the food, well it would become the new Christmas.  Only slightly kidding.  There are way too many Catholics out there that would probably die if that happened.    But anyway,  hope you had a wonderful and thankful Thanksgiving with lots of food, family, and friends.  Here's a Peanut's wallpaper for you! http://images.fanpop.com/images/image_uploads/Thanksgiving-peanuts-452774_1280_960.jpg  

Shout Out to Scott Maynard

http://www.happletea.com/2012/11/27/self-improvement/ This is exactly how I feel. Also, if you haven't read the comic or heard of it, but you're in to mythology and laughing, then you will love Happletea.  So go read it! There is also an awesome store where you can buy stuff.  I haven't bought anything yet, but believe me, if I had the money, I would be paying so many artists for their artwork.

Thanksgiving Gifts

Happy Thanksgiving!!! Since I forgot to post yesterday, here is a short one for today.. Plans for Christmas: Finish the map 2 gifts for family 3 or more gifts for friends  I already finished 1 family gift, and 1 friend gift. So that adds up to 8 gifts for the Christmas season.  Let's hope I can get all of them done!  Meanwhile, go eat some food!  (But not too much).  And if you're going shopping, be safe.

News

As far as getting PayPal set up here, it won't be until after the new year.  I want to try and buy a custom domain and set up something that will hopefully be a lot easier for everyone to view and purchase my art.  But that doesn't mean I won't post up some more pictures/prices for people to see!  I also may have purchased some artwork myself this past month. :)  But as always, I will be keeping you on your toes to find out what it looks like.

Second, I don't know when I will be able to post in the next couple days, so I figured I could get a head start at least.   So, if you are at all interested in laughing or coming to a realization about your major, then you should follow these links.  I promise you will not be disappointed.

Movie Inspiration

Two movies that have given me inspirations recently.  I think the explanation is pretty easy to come by. Quotes and animation. Talk about amazing actors.

The rehearsal dinner at TAP Gastropub, the wedding, the photobooth, and downtown Atlanta. Couldn't have asked for a better weekend. It was great despite the fact that I couldn't take pictures with my camera because I forgot to put the battery in the camera after actually remembering to charge it...  Everything was beautiful.

Remember?

Remember this? Remember the 5th of November? Yeah, now it's the 7th and I'm behind on blogging, only to be leaving for my cousin's wedding tomorrow.  Soo, how about we forget that I forgot to remember, and I'll make it up when I come back? Yeah. Sounds good.  Here's some entertainment to make up for it shortly.  http://lizclimo.tumblr.com/

Good News!

My portfolio is 98% done!!!  The only thing left to do is finish my commission, take a picture, upload it to my computer, and put it in my portfolio.  Then BAM!  I can print out my portfolio and make it fancy, and start putting up prices here for YOU! I can't give you a preview of pictures, but some fun facts:          It's 116 pages long (including all of the tabbed pages and image list).                         It will feature 'new' artwork that I do not believe I have included on here before. And I will probably include the price list soon so everyone can get an idea on prices and spread any       interest in buying around.                I might include some free give-a-ways at some point after the New Year as well.   So many new and exciting things coming up!  Be sure to keep a look out!

Florez

You know those times when you've been listening to a song for a couple of years, but then all of a sudden, the lyrics mean something to you?  Well that happened to me while I was driving yesterday.  I was listening to Florez-one of the best bands I have on CD-and the song was Good Man. The lyrics were "I used to fantasize about gettin' big, but I'm grown and I'm still just a restless kid."  Graduating college, taking on new responsibilities, and becoming independent, I truly feel that way.  I always remember looking up to the people or 'adults' I admired, and now that I seem like an adult to kids, I understand.
