Happy Hump Day everyone!
I’ve been really trying to put special effort in keeping my blog going weekly. Last week i failed. Its ok, I talked to the intrawebz and they forgave me so its all good.
First on the list: I took a trip to the artstore down in Seattle a little while ago. I picked up some new toys (NO, not THOSE kinds). I got some watercolors! I’ve slowly been playing around with them last couple days. Its a media I’ve SO wanted to try but was intimidated to do so. No longer. Here’s a couple of quick painting I did:
Sorry MySpace’s Tom hates boobs, so insert Black Bar of DOOOM!!!!
I’ve always admired artist Brian Stelfeeze and the amazing watercolor illustrations he does for alot of the comiccons out there. It inspired me to pick up the brush. Baby steps right now, but I’m started to grasp the concept.
Next on the list: Commissions!

I can’t wait to see what u come up with, but I guarentee I will knock your socks off with your piece!
Movies: as you might have seen. Movie season has started up and being the avid moviegoer I am. I wanted to offer my 2cents on the last 3 movie I watched on the big screen…
1. Star Trek – all the rumors you might have heard about this movie being badass is true. Except multiply it by 100X and you might come close! And you’re talking to a hardcore StarWars junkie here… Star Trek was amazing. Story. Visuals. Casting. All top notch. This is what movies SHOULD BE LIKE! Go watch it!
2. Terminator Salvation – very entertaining flick, but an abvious platform to rekindle the almost dead flame of the Terminator franchise. Visuals were amazing. Cast was great. The story definatly needed help. It was more like reading a really good Dark Horse comic book than something that merited being turned into a movie. Wait till DVD on this guy.
3. Up! – damn u Pixar! Damn you for making this fatman cry like 5 times! wtf! This was animation as its best. The story janks at your heartstrings like no other. I truthfully wasn’t sure what to expect from what I briefly saw in the trailer, but was pleasantly surprised on how cute the story was (not disappointing like Wall-E was). if you have kids, def check it out. Remember the tissues… its like Niagra Falls! bwhahaha.
I leave you with this week’s Pinup Girl (and hottie from the Watchmen movie) Malin Akerman:
Till next time, see ya in cyberspace cowboys,
