¿hey mister, wanna see my panties?

i can't go too long without painting a post-it seductress, cause they typically take a little longer to do and it's hard to squeeze in after work and before the bar.

i'm calling this one "watermellony". she's not totally watermellony, but watermellony enough to be called watermellony... ¿you know?

i'm off to S, Shower, and Shave before i go away to "belo" in san diego... where the girls look just like the one in my picture. ;-) except the gogos wear much much less.

it's never too late

i had to rush home and quickly create this after work so that i would still have time to go out on a friday.

speaking of which - be sure to enjoy yours.

this is "number ate".

be seeing you,

too much noise - not enough music



the art of conversation is all but lost.

perhaps this is not the case elsewhere, but i have encountered, in the last few weeks and days - some terrible conversation right here in san diego.

i feel like good conversation stems from good pacing, content, and the ability to "know your roll". there are turns and polite mechanics to conversation - subtle and not so subtle. i have had my verbal toes stepped on as well as been part of vapid conversation with really intelligent people. the timing has been all off. the volume has been all off. all sorts of contorted and bizarre conversation have taken place.

there have been breaks in that flow of bad talk, but they are drops of water in an ocean of dry boring sand.

then again....

maybe it's just me.

this character is called "boo note".

¿i thought it was supposed to be wednessday today?



it's very relaxing to do post-it-pets again, but i've noticed that the previews look ugly as heck. the jpeging makes them look all crispy and strange with the soft areas, so i'm going to have to ask you to click on the image, even thought it only slightly enlarges if at all.

thems tha breaks.

this guy is called right angril.

introducin' my peeps

tonight, pacman and peeps were on my mind.

¿it shows eh?

someone emailed me and aksed what i look like. well here's the deal - i'm not sure that i want to be seen, otherwise i would be one of those kids who plasters their pearly whites all over their homepage or does the subtle self portrait thing, but if you scroll down, there's a pic of me next to kevin smith. except that was taken before i had gotten my hair cut...

peace,
love,
happiness is hard to find,

return of the thing


it's been quite some time since i've posted any new post-it-pets. go long enough without painting one of these and i will forget how. once i get started painting on one of these, it's so fun that i wonder why i haven't been doing it more often. lack of free time is causing me to choose between my free time doodles tho. and if you fly with the eagles at night, you can't soar with the owls in the morning...

rejuve

¿Whatdayaknow? two weeks off of work actually makes it fun again. the kind of fun that means i don't notice the time going by and end up working late on accident because i'm enjoying the task at hand. i listened to a radio report claiming that vacations from work increase productivity and mental health. it makes complete sense but it's still very enjoyable to realize that there is hope for the drudgery. i'm sure that i will be bored witless soon enough, but that next trip to tokyo is right around the corner and i will defeat the staleness again.

i often forget just how hard it is...


...to be creative.



i just got back from a few weeks in a foreign place. i had a great time.

i have been home for two days sleeping odd hours and doing things like dreaming out loud and pining for the open crowded spaces of the land i left.

today i sat in front of my computer with some piano music playing and i picked up the pen for the first time in weeks. it was tough and very very draining. an artist doesn't have a hard life mind you - no more difficult than most and certainly less difficult than some, yet it felt really tough.

i should have remembered to do my art push-ups while i was away.
