Wow, so im keeping to my word today and im home and im going to post some pictures, i really hope my computer dosnt mess up and it alows me to do this!! i ahve quite a few to post, beacuse i have kept quite busy!


So this here is the Modrean style painting i did, its pretty good i think, i really enjoyed doing it actually, i have been admireing his stuff latly... before when i started painting i hated this stuff, i thought it had no talent behind it, but now i absolutly love it, i think its awsome work and im glad i did this piece.


this is the picture that i sold at the art show a few weeks back, i was really hopeing to sell the raven picture but that never happend so now its just collecting dust! this one went for 120$ which i was pretty happy with beacuse it only took about 10 hours to paint all together.

this is the dunny that i made for the art show, My buddy Ryan Conlin and another friend abbie sizer did a dunny aswell, ryan did a smaller one that was like a tribal one, it was green and cool lookin, and abbie did a hippy dunny, they all turned out really good and i was quite impressed.

this is the last picture im posting today and its a picture that i did just for the show, it took me only a few hours from the idea to the finished product, i like the sketch alot more beacuse his body shape was done better but non the less it was a fun idea and im content with what came from the final product.

May friggin 3rd already! so its been like...just about a month since i last posted...and i also never got around to posting pictures, so im not going to promise anything new again beacuse i dont know when the hell i will be posting again. but lets recap what has happend in the last while. i have been working alot in the NCC artroom still, i have basicly refinished a old robot picture that i had already finished like 3 years ago. I did my own modrean picture, it turned out pretty good, you PROBABLY but will see what it looks like but not for sure, i have the pictures at home, and i am at school right now and i have no idea if i will post from home tonight beacuse it seems like every time i say that im going to post pictures i never really get around to it. So i have also sold another painting! it was called KKK also subtitles chung pow. it was the same purple people as the one that i did with like 250 little purple people, it was a tri canvas piece and it was swell, i may throw up a post with that picture as well in the neer future. uhm... basicly i have just been playing rugby in my off time aswell, and drinking once in awhile with friends... the usual. ALSO as of may first i have my own appartment with the girlfriend. we are going up there this saturday and staying till like....sunday, or monday, but we need to get to know the area since i will be at school there for 2 years or so. uhm... i have designed new tattoos for myself, i plain to get a chest piece with a large buddha head in the middle that centers the tattoo, im getting words on my stomic and i have been planning a tattoo for my grilfriend that says "da mihi boillia millie" which is kiss me with a thousand kiss'. she wants it on her foot so i hope she injoys what i creat. i also have thought up three new paintings that i hope to get around to so it gives me more to post about but i guess we will find out later... but anyhow, im out.

alrighty, so new shit... defanitly got into sheridan, and best part was that i didnt even need a portfolio!? it was kinda weird, but i guess the past year of shit i have been working on i can just sell and make alittle bit of money. i think i have now found a place in oakville! im waiting for a reply and i really really hope the apartment isnt taken, if it is im on the search AGAIN! but for now i am just relaxing helping around in the art room and working alittle on my stuff, i have a buddy that i did a painting with, its alright i somewhat like the outcome, its a blender...mixed with ym style and some of his, it turned out okay, i will take a picture of it and post it tommorow, i also just finished a new piece today, its like my sunshine picture, but this one is called "kkk" and is says "killing karatie killers" and an acsent on the e in karatie, clearly not spelt that way, but thats the way i did it. its over three canvases a small one, then a bigger, then a small one again, it has some sort of chinese rising sun on the one side shining through them all. i will also post a picture of that tonight or tommorow, i dont know yet, my home computer has been acting up alot latly, which really really sucks! but yeah not much other then that is new other then that stuff, there is an art show tommorow which i will be taking place in putting a few pieces in, but yes, im off.

wicked awsome weekend i just ahd, i defanatly partied an extra lot, beacuse when i got home friday afternoon from school i was greeted with a acceptance letter to sheridan, in other wards a passport outa belleville and into a larger town where hopefully some of my stuff will be alittle more recognized. i dont think it will happen BUT people say it will so i am keeping my hopes up. last night i was looking for an appartment in oakville and there were some wicked deals rangeing from 500-1000 which is basicly our price range, a grand is alittle to high but there were plenty below 800 which is prime! so im off to serch the web of sheridan to see what i need to hand in for a portfolio.

okay... so fuck, i had like half a blog postede nad my comp restarted so i probably wont write as much on this one as i did like 10 minuts ago... but yeah, so i know i laready posted once today but i finished my pieces and photographed it so i thought that i would post some pics and what not. but yeah this is the one where i had to cut like a shit load of lino block stencils and stuff and spray paint and sooo on and sooo on, but yeah heres the stencils and then the pictures of it almost done and it done following it.


so here is the stamps whick probaly took me the longest of everything, and also cost like 50% of the total cost...


heres right before i stenciled the big crow and just had all the stamps on the canvas, all i did for them was stamp them wait for them to dry then made those black rings around them with spray paint...


annnd here is the compleat painting, i just did a coat of gray on a angle, then did the black spray paint stright on to give it some sort of two tone, then held the spray paint a few feet in the air to get that darker colour in the bird... i just find it amusing how this painting started out as a man with his mouth open and butterflys comming out of it with a big butterfly on the side, then it changed into crows comming out, then i just caned the whole guy and went for the stencils and here it is... now i needa do that sloth... or zombie... or i have another crow kind of idea in my head but its a sculpture not a painting.
alright so once again i havnt blogged in for ever! but this time i do have my excuses! like for example i have almost finished my new piece...painting...what ever, the painting itsself i swear i could do it in a day but between all the streching and cutting of stencils and the 6 or 7 custom lino block cuts, its been quite time consuming... but yeah on a off note, EB gmaes is such a friggin piss off! there is some sort of deal going on where you trade in 10 games and your Ps2 for a Ps3 for like 399.99$ ... sounds good untill they fuck you in the ass 20 times. i brought in my ps2, game cube, 26 ps3 games and 4 game cube games. they wouldnt take my ps2 beacuse the controler wasnt a ps2 controler, they said that 6 of my games quilified and that was it beacuse you need 8$ games or something? it was such bullshit, i asked if i could trade in my Ps2 and everything else what kind of money would i get... 220$ they said... that is fuckin bull a la CRAP. like serously, 30 games 2 systems = 220$? sounds like bullshit to me. so yeah i guess im going to have to just buy one full price beacuse i would defanatly rather keep my systems and games and stuff beacuse its not worth the penies that they will give me. so... on a tecnology note, my girlfriend bought a bran spankin' new 19" LCD high def TV yesterday for the apartment we are plaining on moving into... which is awsome... but somthing that is just as awsome is that it is hanging on my wall untill we get this place (about five more months!) so yeah, tres cool! so... i know there is more to talk about in the art world im just trying to think of what i wanna do... i have like a squar canvas 38"X38" that i plain to do a really cartoony sloth on it with HUGE teeth, ill take a picture of the sketch of it i will be painting and you all can check it out...you all meaning the no body who reads my blogs HAhaHAhaaa. but any how i get to go spray paint now so... im out.
