this isn't

this isn't going to be the best painting that you've ever seen, but it isn't going to be the worst painting that you've ever seen either.

some days are bad and others are awful, but there will only be one best and one worst.

when i find the really bad ones i remember that.

it's a fact of life.

there will be much much worse.

too, there will be far greater.

have a good evening, i'm off to drown sorrows in a tankard of guiness.

desert booty

a beer and a bucket of bolts

if you go to the SD Comic Con - go see Alberto Ruiz
he'll be at booth H3 - it's by row 1000 but a little further back in the back.

i might be there selling my sketchbook and signing them, but i must work allot this weekend so who knows.


be seeing you,

a picture from the show

This is a pic Will Harris of premium hollywood took. Kevin Smith looked surprised that I had a squid head, I suppose somebody should have warned him, but that's life... one minute you're busy being an actor writer director and producer, and the next minute you're being accosted by a squid artist.

Thanks for posing, Kevin, and thanks for shooting the pic, Will.

inch by inch

ok, i've got to start painting these things into good environments, but i don't yet know how i'm going to do that, so i'm going to start small. first the blue and green, now grass. i'm not sure what's next but i'm trying to grow.

doing that on purpose is so $%#$^ing hard with no time to do it in.

have a good saturday, i've got to go pick a friend up from the airport.

friday night.

it's friday night, and i'm about to go get into trouble.

wish me luck, although when it comes to getting into trouble - i never need it.

everything is 3's...
or 8's...

have a great day.

show stuff

since the show opened - here are the other pieces i did.

i'm really proud to say that Kevin Smith bought one of my pieces. i like some of his movies very much and to talk to him in person was really cool. he dedicated allot of time to his fans and you have to respect how humble he acted as i've heard that fame can get to some people.

thanks to everybody who came out and i hope you had a great time.

piecing it all together

another piece from the show (that's TONIGHT):


come in as say hi to me. i'll be the white kid with the black shirt with a ribcage and green guts painted onto it and really really really short hair.

¿you know what movie this one is from?

&Rew.

i got to keep on movin

"more rocks please."

that is what i would say if i were eating rocks and i liked the way they tasted.

&Rew.

pet rocks

tonight i started painting rocks.

i was drunk last night and talking to a girl who said she used to collect rocks.

right after she brought that up, i got these rocks stuck in my head and i had decided that today after i napped my hangover away and played way too many hours of warcraft, i would paint a few rocks.

there's not too much good here, but maybe if i keep on going a few gems will turn up.

be seeing you.

¿coconut snake?

i was watching T.V. last night and thought, "since i've finished the pieces for Tuesday's show, i deserve a break from traditional media for a day before i start on next month's show's pieces."

my second thought was about coconut shakes, but somewhere in between the darkness in my head and the warn glow of the television set, the word "shake" was transformed into "snake".

i hadn't much thought about "coconut shakes" before last night, but to claim that now would be a damn lie.

so here's an illustration of a coconut snake. i suppose you could call this exercising demons. why waste such a bad idea and keep it to myself?

being a professional aint easy

well, i don't want to upload all of the images i did this week, but here's one:

it's from a movie, and i'm not going to tell which one, but once you know it should be obvious.



i'm in an art show at gallery1988 it's called crazy for cult, and the theme is a bunch of cult classic movie art interpretations. i did five pieces and they'll all be there Tuesday the 17th of this month. stop by if you're in the area. it should be really fun.

i'll post more scans from it later next week, and now i'll have time for some digital soon.

rough week.

so tell me how do i feel

it's morning and i'm up early... just like the sun. what a coincidence. perhaps it is that i saw him coming and fled into the darker shade of my house.

i'm still sunburned. and i'm still grumpy.

this is pretty much how i feel:


&Rew.

pink toast.

i fell asleep in the sun today. i was going to read a chapter or two and when i woke time had passed to nearly write a book.

i'm burned badly.

i'm delerious.

there is a phoenix under the skin on my chest. it's twisting fiery wings up and out and scratching at the inside of me. i can feel every inch of happy that was once on my skin being carved out and replaced with tiny cells of lava and itch.

i go outside once a year to see if there is still a sun. much like the ground hog but without the wisdom of the coming winter (or summer) or whatever the fkuc the ground hog knows about.

this was my day. there is indeed still a sun. it is indeed stonger than the ones i used to color with sunglasses and smiles in my children's coloring book.

the sun left his thumb print upon my shoulders and chest. i can see the loops and swirls of his folds mashed up on the high points of my pectorals and on the bones and pink highlights. the white folds that were shaded are glowing yellow against all the otherwise pale burgundy flesh.

it hurts.

for g_d's sake, surely this has been a mistake. learn from this post. so that you won't end up pink toast, like me.
