4/26 micket process

4/25 finished micket. original photograph animation by brasshorse killer haha. 'emo jimmy' reached 5th position but fell out, but 'freefall' has finally got on the board at 10th position at gfxartist.com

4/23 the MAN gave me a promotion/raise today, in a sense apologizing for taking the fruit from the bottom of my yogurt cup. 'emo jimmy' reached 8th place but the other three havent faired well. i dont understand why 'freefall' didnt. oh well....neeeext... started micket.

4/19 finished freefall. original photograph. and turned 27.

4/14 finished thinkling portrait. original photograph noticed that i had been using capital letters in the sentences below. f i x e d that! none of that tomfoolery will occur here!

4/13 i opened a fruit on the bottom cup of yogurt, there was no fruit. what's up with that!?!? it's the MAN, the same MAN, that adds overtime two hours before my shift is over.

4/11 added evil tree and emo jim.

4/08 w.e. henley, "you are the master of your fate and the captain of your soul."

4/04 this is not by me. pg13 music video for blur. good stuff. might have to 'save target as' and then view when from desktop.

3/31 oh snap! at gfxartist.com i am up for Elite Artist. they now have a stricter guideline for being put up for nominations, so its me and four other artists. to be up in the top five is honor enough, but man! if i could get elite artist, my life would be complete, i would quit art altogether after that, then id consider conquering something else, like the world, but for now, until i get elite artist, conquering the world will have to be on the back burner. fingers crossed. would be nice to be king...

3/30 dang, found out im glaucoma suspect. 'it has been suggested that individuals with Japanese ancestry may be at a greater risk...' DOH! anyways, touched up angel8 and dual citizen.

3/29 oh snap! found some old news. kinda interesting at least for me. time goes by fast.

3/24 my mission: i will be published in an artist showcase book before my 28th birthday, April 2005.

3/23 beginning to create tutorials/guides to creating digital artwork. hopefully it will help drive content. here's my first blurb. birth of an artist - beginners guide to becoming a digital artist

3/22 finished kathy and her rats chibi and derma. if you want kathys face to be viewed by hundreds of people over the world, go vote for it at gfxartist.com and get it to the top ten list! i was just cataloging my work, and i just realized that i have been able to produce a TOP TEN image every week for the last FIVE weeks! boo yeah!
