Hey!

My friend Theresa is doing a 24-hour video game marathon as part of the Sarcastic Gamer Extra Life fundraiser, which benefits Texas Children’s Hospital.
The fundraising efforts end tomorrow. (“Computer: day of the week?” “Thursday”.)[1] That’s Friday, people! Theresa only has one day to make up the last $292 to meet her $2000 goal! [...]

So look, I have been thinking about starting a web comic, but I have been feeling concerned about how my sense of humor is so weird that it’s probably not even funny to a lot of people, and I’ve sort of made my peace with that– and I also always end up thinking about XKCD [...]

Woah, check out the “Thursday Edition: Trey Speegle” print for sale on the 20×200 site!
I really like this one. I was just thinking a few weeks ago about how rad paint-by-number is, and how I could incorporate some into my illustrations. Don’t you hate getting scooped?
(Actually, after seeing so many artists doing [...]

Dear readers of my blog who reside upon the binary ebbings and flowings of the internets:
I would like to introduce something exciting and experimental– a limited run of my photograph prints, made available for purchase for whatever you decide they are worth.[1] Yes!
I’ve chosen four photographs that I love. [...]
I’m really excited about some paintings I finished for part of a Moleskine exchange I’m in right now. (A group of artists each buy a Moleskine journal, make art on a set amount of pages, mail it to the next person, etc, until finally you get your own Moleskine back, filled with the work [...]

I’m so excited for one of my coworkers– his sister, Leila Josefowicz, just won a MacArthur Fellowship (the “Genius Award”) for her pioneering work in violin performance.
She’s just 30, and she’s already achieved so much! My god…
We talked about her this morning, and about some of the work she’s been doing, and it got [...]

A quick post to let you know I have a new original painting up for sale on Etsy:

Hear ye, people! Check out this awesome post on Pressure Printing’s blog of how they created an intaglio print of a Travis Louie drawing (”Bride of Stan”) and framed it in a custom resin frame.
I want one so bad.
The more I learn about art and the more active in making my own [...]

So, I’m quite sure how it happened (I blame my bloated-beyond-all-measure Google Reader RSS feed), but somehow I found a tab open with Colin Chillag’s flickr account.
My first thought was “Who is this guy?” and then as I looked at the images, my second thought was, “… Holy crap!”
Check this out. His painting entitled [...]

It’s raining in Seattle and I’m cold and grumpy. Can you tell? This is a self portrait I drew a couple days ago when I was in a foul mood, for a Moleskine exchange project I’m participating in:
I haven’t drawn a self portrait in about 8 years– wait, that’s a lie– there must’ve [...]
