Sorry about the word verification...

Hey guys... (mostly jessica because she hates this so much)... i had to re-add my word verification because i got some comment spam. It was really irritating. I NEVER want that again so i'm making the sacrifice of adding the disliked word verification back. Sorry... just thought i'd let you know why i did that... I know it's annoying... but better than having some STUPID SPAM PERSON leaving comments on my blog.

New but old.

Welp, for those of you who DON'T know... i was laid off. I'm depressed and haven't really drawn since it happened except for the table at Macaroni Grill... does that count? Anywho, i'm trying to get enough motivation to pull a demo reel together and get back on my feet but it's really hard... Anywho, i've scanned a lot of pictures as of late and realized i never posted some of these so.... enjoy. i guess.

These are a few self portraits i was doing at work right before i was laid off...

Killer Cake

What goes through a person's mind while they are making a cake for a person they intend to kill? I'll never know....I call this sketch... "Killer Cake, Mom" ....if you don't get it... check my parents blog.

In Remembrance...

After the whole Pushing Daisies incident i don't feel bitter at all.. i still like the show and watch it every wednesday...I do long for it though now and then. I'm glad we could stay friends after our breakup though... that's important. ;)
