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.

Thursday, March 22, 2007

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.

so its been two days or so since i have posted last. and nothing crazy like last time has really happend. saturday was a long road of recovering... i was fealing the aftermath of friday night untill almost noon saturday and was stuck in a state of no sleep! way to intence for my likeing! but i rested, never fully sleep, but rested until about 5 when a good friend of mine ashley came over, i took a shower and felt much better, we headed over to another friend house where we chilled for some time, later we went out for katies dinner, we parked the car in a parking lot neer the resterant where three of my four friend through back some shots to make the night alittle better then we headed inside to chow down at katies birthday. we stayed there till about nine, but the longer i was there the worst i felt, i was feeling the booze from the night prirror once again, the more sleepy i got the more drunk i felt, but i really felt like a dip shit for me not drinking in a day and feeling it still... so i figured if i was going to be drunk...i should probbaly drink more, so i orderd a margarita...which wasnt the bestest of ideas, my body couldnt take drunk three nights in a row so it really made me unable to intake anything for the rest of the night. after we left the place we went to some swen guys house or somthing, nice people but not pumpin enough for us to stay any longer then a hour. we ended up driving around for a bit but then called it an early night and i went home by 11:30, thank god though beacuse i REALLY needed the sleep. i went out like a light and it was awsome. i woke up about 11 hours earlyer and messaged my gf to come pick me up. she did and then we basicly spent the day together, nothing overly crazy happend, shopping and what not, when home and painted her room, but that was about it. sow now it is finialy monday and the week has restarted, i probably wont post pictures or anything for that matter for the next week beacuse im not staying at home i am at my grannys while my mom is in the diminican, i would normaly stay at home but my brother is a compleat asshole and is a trip show so it is very uncomfertable to be there. so... my best bet is to post at school which i may do through out the week, but im not promising anything.

Saturday, March 3, 2007

so last night was my first appearence and experience of this thing called the apartment. it was quite rad. robert connizle and i split a 40 in less then 45 minuts, and sure enough that really got me going for the night. i'd seen alot of shit there that i have never experienced, but it was all good to go. i did my own things, and i guess others chose to do theirs. i dont think i could pull a life that most of them do. i mean i woke up after a few hours sleep thismorning still feeling the buzz from last night, which was pretty intence, i sat around for about 2 hours basicly doing nothing, tryed to go abck to sleep and it sure as hell didnt happen. i gammed for a bit, but it got old quick so now im home and bloggin away. i kinda hope im not drinking tonight. it would be the third night in a row and so much drinking in such alittle time sucks the fun out of it i think. i get drunk maybe once a week at the bar, and if i dont go to the bar, i dont drink at all. but on this missfortunate week...ahaha it hasnt been misfortunate at all what am i saying, but on this week, bar thurs, canceld plans friday so i ended up drinking and now saturday im pretty sure i will end up drunk somewhere some how...its just the vibe im feeling i think. but anyways...no new art really, i have a good idea for some spray art but im going to keep it to myself untill i hammer it out i think. it should be a pretty rad peace if all goes well.

so here you go johnE boy, my good friend living in the UK, here is my room face lift, everything is movied around, no dressers or anything, all shelves off the wall are black, i have my 2 pieces of art hanging on the wall, my piercing station its just compleatly different i even ripped up the carpet well... 3/4 ths of it! enjoy!

so basicly what your seeing here johnE boy, is me sitting on my bed looking towards my door, my bed has moved from under the window to down the one side wall, with all my dvds at my toes.

looking alittle to the right i got my computer...and piercing station basicly for when ever i have home appointments, which is pretty rare, i do more of my work outside my house and carry all of my equipment around in a balck bag, and that would be where i got the name Black Bag Piercings.


when you get your ass back in canada we can open up that new bar fridge and have a few beer my friend. it shall be stocked full for your arival home. maybe i can put a needle through your face? anyways, tell me what you think of the room.
so, like i said early i was painting a picture...and itturned out...okay, i used my signature piece...which is the pop, but made sure i gobbed on the paint so he would be quite blurred then painted two characters Gramps, and Grams, Gramps in a red oxide tone waterd town to a milk texture, and dido with the Grams but i did her in a purple tone mixed with a white to make it, a light purple... it turend out okay, i was really going to do some spray paint work on it, i miss working with that stuff it is so much more fin then a paint brush! but on some other news i sold my first painting today, the one that is posted earlyer, a self portrait of me, sold it to a staff member of NCC for a pretty penny, and got the price i asked so everything went swell! heres a older painting i did with a spare canvas, its one of those guys from the sunshine painting, i did another one of these guys but have no idea where the painting is nore do i have a picture at this moment in time, but it was basicly the same with much more color some spray paint and a boy on the side of the head, but for now heres the green and white guy.


annnd there she blows...yeah it does kinda blow...well...what ever i enjoy it, i like the transparent squares on the left side, and i liked working with the indian ink for my black lines.


annnnd here is the one i did today, GRAMS & GRAMPS its just how i described it...sort of. enjoy.

alright so i have been busy for the past few days and havnt gotten time to jump on here or anything to blog. but not much has really happend, uhm so im starting a new piece today, i have about six hours to work on it so i may get it done. its not the biggest of canvis but it shall be wall candy when its done. just plannins to do some sort of yellow ochra and some raw umber together mixxed with some white making some pretty solid colour and also stenciling my pope that you can see on my jesus pic somewhere on it like a film strip beacuse i am hopeing as the more stuff i do, from now on instead of a signature...i will have a signature stencil. i just want that pope in red or black to be assoceated with me over time. i dont know if i have already mentioned it but i have a buyer for my portrait peice, i havent spoken yet money wise so i dont know what kind of cash ill be making off of the picture. i dont think i will let it part from me for more then a few pretty pennies. i will probably log on later on today if not tommorow to put up some pictures of my sketch book to keep it updated of my ideas that will be comming out pretty damn soon. im off to go paint get some good colours out i just thought i would drop a few run on sentances and spelling mistakes while my jesso is drying on the canvas. i may even get a full compleat picture of that on here by the end of today...orrr maybe the half finished thing. i dont know.

Monday, February 26, 2007

alright... like i said yesterday i have a few more things to trow up some newer then toher but most of them are just screwing around.

i did this one mid last year, it was for a project at the beggining of the school year, it was supposed to be a self portrai but i screwed around with it to make it unique...


i just did this one a few weeks ago...or actually last week i belive, i was cleaning my art teachers spray paint room and we came across these 2 pains of glass, and he offerd them to me so i painted the mario scene on the 2 pieces, background on one, and mario on the other! i actually found this really difficult for that fact that i had to do everything backwords, black lines first and then the colour, but i think it turned out alright.



this is a piece i did today actually. i did it for my room. i came across these two fraims with glass in them so i spray painted the back of them a dark olive green followed by a light green which went on my olive green wall, which did some sorta tri-green effect which turrned out pretty rad. it really goes with my room consittering everything in my room is eather a oliveEy green or black it just kind of flows. but not much happend today...slept alot, and just doing some planning in my art book for what evers next. i think i have a few ideas i can pull out of my ass though.

Sunday, February 25, 2007

so...yeah, last night consisted of not much at all...and today...not much at all aswell, bought a new bar firdge beacuse the old one was broken...bought some new things for piercing and...played some video games... but i just thought that i should come on and upload a few pictures, i did some looking around at files on my computer and noticed i had a few more that i could throw up.



i started and finished this one in a day sometime in, end of 2006 couldnt tell you exactly when...but i like the way it came out.


i did this one just a few weeks ago actually probably some time neering the end of january, i came across some old canvas' and just started painting crap on it, this is actually on the back of a streched canvas and i painted the frame black and then went to town on the rest of it. i like it but dont know how the fuck to hang it on the wall...

these are more of the canvas' that i came across, i did this over the course of 2 days, uhm its a three part pictire, every black line through the hand is where the canvas' seperate. i like this one... i think?
you can also see things im working on in the background sort of and my compleated self portrait that ill post another day. but for now i think im done posting pics, ill put some more up tommorow... i need to take a picture of a few things and continue working on what i am working on right now...

Saturday, February 24, 2007

So im just waiting here at ashleys house now... i have a few piercing apintments to do today, so i have to head out in about a half an hour, if you havent already noticed i cant spell worth shit but im a jedi so i keep on truckin ahaha. just to keep shit updated im starting my new project soon, going to try and do a zombie portrait, in photo realistic style, i will upload my progress and ideas as it they grow. i want to make him in a suit and everything so from the face down it looks like it would be a real portrate of a man in a suit. ill probably drop a few lines some time tommorow, maybe a picture or two of some art work and my progress on the zombie picture, i have no pictures on this computer or i would do it now.
