October update

It's been a busy couple of months at work and it's really halted my creative drive when I leave the office. Don't get me wrong here, in a way, this is good since my body is forcing my brain to chill when I get home and not try to pump out some art. But I've got some small projects that are looming that I will have to ramp up for again soon.

Lately I've been doing a bit of everything at work. Modeling, uv unwraps, texture creation, concept work, design work, even doing some sprite art research. While it's been loads of fun to get to flex all of those different muscles, it's got me a bit drained at the moment. Then again, I guess that's what happens near the end of a project cycle.

My next endeavors will be completing the small projects on the horizon, and tackling the biggest (and most fun) creative project for the month! Planning Linda's Bday/Halloween party!! The flyers/invitations are all done and now I'm just amassing decorations as well as taking notes on any game/decoration/tasty concoction ideas I get as the days roll on... Can't wait for the weekend of Halloween, it's gonna be a blast... Hopefully I get everything done!

Another painting, complete!

This was another birthday gift for a good friend of mine!

Spirit Dance

Here's the finished painting!! It's been done for a bit, but I couldn't post as it was a bit of a surprise gift for Kit. She's got her print now so here it is! I'm happy to have a complete piece done, now just gotta keep it going!

New inspiration from my friends in Denver!!

During my trip to Denver I got to see what my best friend was getting in to out there (HOLA KIT!!). Tribaltique!! I only got to see two performances but they were beautiful, mystical, and downright entertaining performances that I can't wait to see another of. Tribaltique is a dance movement that was created by her ridiculously talented teacher and roommate, Julia DiVerdi, and another extremely talented dancer and really cool (and catty ;)woman named Molly McClellan. Together they teach classes and perform around the Denver/Ft. Collins area of Colorado. Did I mention they were fun as hell to hang out with too?? Can't wait to get back to Denver!

Those talented ladies plus the drive to hang some of my own art on my walls has me working on a new painting.. I've only got this week left to finish it, so I'll update the progress as it happens.

Back from vacation in Denver

Yo yo... I went to Denver again to visit one of my oldest and best friends for the second time. Had an absolute blast out there. There's a certain aura about Denver and the surrounding cities that really has a fantastic vibe that I just may not be used to feeling, but it's stuck with me and isn't going away anytime soon. More on this later, I've gotta go to sleep and attempt to wake up motivated tomorrow.
