General Update

Journal Entry: Fri Jun 5, 2009, 1:13 PM
I've been really quiet lately and I want to apologize for that. Not that I owe you guys my attention or anything, but I've always tried to be accessible and for the most part lately that hasn't been happening. So yeah, I do keep an eye on my message center, reply to comments that pop up, etc... but I haven't really done much to come out of hiding in awhile.

Here's what's happening:

As many of you know I hit a huge run of financial trouble early this year. It is relatively fine now. We struggle a bit, but I think we've got some good growth here, nothing really worth fretting over too badly.

As such, to achieve that point I had to freelance my friggin limbs off to make sure I could pay my bills. I got to do some amazing projects during this, so while I'm bitter that I had to do a lot of work when I otherwise wanted a lot of time off.... I am thankful for the amazing opportunities. A book cover, an album cover, a bunch of collectible card illustrations, and of course I'm part way into a seriously big project for one of my favorite clients.

With this in mind, a lot of this work is under NDA still - so you won't get to see much of it for awhile. I can say this much though, one pic should be up within the next few weeks, a few following that, and then a loooong lull of nothing - save for a few personal projects I pop out during my breaks (to which there are always many planned). Then this winter I imagine I'll be able to bury my gallery in all sorts of juicy art.

With this in mind, I do have a plan in mind to get you guys a bunch of pieces a bit in the middle of this timeline.... and we'll put it this way... the Revolution has only just begun.

That aside, I'd love to hear how you're all doing, say hi - let me know what's up.... I'd like to hear it :)

Yeah I hate that things have to be quiet for awhile artistically... but you work with what you got I guess. Either way, good things are upon us, just gotta make it all happen well :)

I'm hanging in there, and we're making due. Things get hard, but I'm in better shape than I was even just a few months ago. Progress is progress :)

Things are sucking all around, things for me personally are emotionally sucking but thats a me problem. Im learning to drive which is positive but thats about it. Behind on the school work and hate my job.

Miss you, havent actually managed a conversation with you in near a year now.

glad to hear you are alright and still hanging in there.

In happier news, and probably more to Megsys liking, I have tickets for London IMAX viewing of the second transformers movie. ^__^

Take care. x
