Baby, I'm howlin' for you

Halfway there.






This painting is turning out to be a lot of fun once I embraced the idea that I could make a mistake. Which happens more often than not in watercolors.


The Black Keys have been on heavy repeat on my music player, and I don't think I'll ever get tired of them. Same goes for The White Stripes, The Hives, LCD Soundsystem, The Beatles, and several others. It's good when you can find music you can't seem to tire of.

Elk Tribute

I had a friend once.

He was an interesting person to say the least. He wasn't on the wagon, and he introduced me to some really great music. His artwork motivated me not to draw something that I'm not. He was into animals and nature. Maybe skateboarding, too. I was never to sure about that, to be honest. He was friends with everyone. He was friends with me. He passed away last year.

I painted this for him today.

His name is Jared Martin, and I miss him.

Curse Me Out

From my Fall 2009 Lettering & Type Design class.




Lyrics are from Love Dog by TV on the Radio. The lettering is crap, but I thought the illustration was neat.

Hooray!

The Instigator Vol 01, Issue 2.

(It isn't very professional or aspiring for me not to update my blog, so I apologize to you, the seven people who follow and the few who get linked on Facebook.)

The Instigator's second issue is being printed this week and features work by some people you may know! Many are associated with New Jersey City University, so it may be clever and somewhat becoming to call it the "Unofficial" Literature and Art Magazine of NJCU. In case you don't live around the Hudson county area, you can visit http://theinstigator.hostei.com/ for subscriptions and digital PDFs of the magazine. On the website you can visit the forum, see who runs the darn thing, and check out upcoming events. Yes, we have events.


Recent events have pushed me to create yet another blog @Tumblr. My Tumblr account motivated me to finalize my potential website name, too. Visit!: nar-esp.tumblr.com


The following image was done as participation in an NJCU Art and Design Association Secret Santa three months ago. Jared Reyes loves pandas so much he wants more of them roaming. Here's one way to make more:

Yes, it's titled "Bamboo Banger".

Yes, I'm aware it's a M.I.A. track.

Yes, the blog is completed.
