At this moment, I'm somewhere above New Mexico (at least that's what the pilot says.) I've been chopping away at storyboards since we took off from ATL, no mean feat, considering we're all pretty cramped up on this plane and what not. I've got the usual worries:
How much can I get done?
How many sleepless nights will it cost me?
Will I get to show my stuff to its intended viewers?
Will they like it?
If they do, CAN I HAVE A JOB?
Yet and still, I'm more light-hearted than I've ever been heading out to the Con. It's been one of the more hectic years: changed jobs, lost a good friend, made a lot more (Thanks, Deviants!) but most of all, really got my head screwed on artistically. Suddenly, I find my self leaping headfirst into my work,not stressing, or sweating the small stuff or what I can't change. It not only feels great, but I'm just a lot happier with what I've been putting out. Plus, I've discovered enough ways to keep myself drawing to set me up for the next two Cons, if not more (thanks again, DA!)
So I'm just in a mellow mood, watching the clouds roll over the mountains below. I can't wait to touch down. I can't wait to see my old friends, teachers and peers. I can't wait to hang with the SCAD mob, and toast the first round of drinks and cigars to my boy Jeremy's memory. Maybe I'm just in a different place right now.
Or maybe it's just that I have to use the john...

Hey, Y'all.
I'm back again (actually, I never left, but it's just been forever since I did a journal entry). After spending last year helping my friends run Con tables, I took the next logical step, and decided to start tabling my self this year. I've already gotten one under my belt (the inaugural AWESOME CON DC, which was held right here in my stomping ground, the Nation's Capitol, and lived up to its namesake to boot!)
Next up is HEROES CON, down in Charlotte, NC. I hope to have a few more prints to sell, and do some onsite doodlin' as well. I'll let you guys know as we get closer in.
In the meantime, I've opened an online store sit
Rearing my Ugly Head...!!!!
heyHeyHEYYY!!!
Back at it again, after a crazy couple of months in terms of everything BUT art. Just got back a few days ago from the New York Comic-Con, where I was helping my hoodlum sidekick *TomKellyART (https://www.deviantart.com/tomkellyart) move irresistable Kitties, and awesome-ass Deadpool and Aquaman Prints (and sit next to the overly-enthusiastic Brett Weldele to boot!). Along the way, I got to see/talk to/hang out with/heckle some of my all-time favorite funny-book folks, including Billy Tucci, Mike Norton, Bryan "Kaiser"Tillman, Jason Axtell, and Daniel Miller, to name a few.
Again, though, a special shout-out to my m
HEADS UP!!!
Hey, Fellow Deviants!!!
I'll be hanging out at HEROES CON in Charlotte, NC next weekend, Jun 22nd-24th! If any of you guys make it out, I'll be in the "INDIE ISLAND" section of Artists' Alley, helping my good friend JAY POTTS at the WORLD OF HURT table, section AA-539.
(Who knows? I may be doing a sketch or seven!!)
Drop by and say Hi!
NOMO...
Ten days ago, we lost a family member. Our akita Nomo (who I always thought of as "My Little Brother") came to us as a pup 11 years ago, and grew into a brawling 150-lb. ball of Man's Best Friend.
The great comedian George Carlin once said that because you know you're going to outlive your pet, buying a dog was like "purchasing a small tragedy." After a week's reflection, I prefer to think of it differently. Buying a dog is like purchasing a brief pocket of unconditional love and loyalty. That was Nomo. We adults spoiled him like he was one of our children, and in return he protected the children in our family as if they were his own cub
