I have been setting a lot of lofty goals lately. I want to start trying to track them a little better. I want to try to work on my digital painting. I want to build a digital portfolio. I might try to look into going back to school and take a couple classes.
I still want to tattoo. I love tattooing. But I want to be able to do it to supplement my income, instead of as my only source of income.
I want to get back to painting more. I have been painting a little more. Changing shops was a good move I believe. I am now working at Exquisite Tattoo and Body Piercing in Bloomington, IL. I have more time to think, and paint more. I want to try to get my life in a little more order. I feel like I got buried trying to work, and I forgot about the art that makes me happy, and the reasons I work in art.
I am making a lot of changes. I hope they are all for the better. I hope to be updating more often with journals and artwork.

I just finished a painting competition for artvsart. Which is a really cool concept. It's $10 to enter, and they supply ALL of your supplies. Which is a canvas, 4 economy pack brushes, the 3 primary colors plus black and white, mixing trays, water, and paper towels. You have 4 hours from the time you get your canvas to finish. No theme, paint what you want. The three top from each division get to go to the finals in Indianapolis. (so I need your votes vote.artvsart.com/city/hammond)
At the finals, the art is put up for and art vs art BATTLE ROYAL!!!

It's a winner takes all, and the paintings are put up for auction. If they make it threw auction, and no one bids on them, they face (dun dun dun) the WHEEL OF DEATH...

This has been fun, I encourage more entrants next year, and please!!! GO VOTE!!!

I haven't updated my journal in eons. So here I am. Last post I had just gotten a job doing illustrations. That was October 2005. After doing that for about 2 years, I lost my job. I was doing illustration for the real estate industry. Which as most people will know, is not doing it's best in this res session. So I decided it was now or never and pursued what I've always kind of wanted to do. Tattooing.

I've been at the shop I am at now, for almost a year. China Doll Tattoo in Hammond, IN. I love it there for the most part. It's a great place to learn and it's pretty laid back. I've been posting a couple of my favorite pieces that I've done.

This next Saturday September 6th. I am participating in an Art vs. Art competition. We have 4 hours to paint a piece with crappy materials. Something fun to do, and I get to meet other artists in the area. I look forward to it.

I'm also meeting up with some old friends from art school tomorrow. So I am very excited about that.

Everything it looking up.
