New Watercolor Pinup!

I bet most of you intrawebbrz are either NOW just starting to wake up or are hustling to get thru the workday to celebrate the long Fourth of July weekend! I’m there wif ya!

I missed this past Hump Day post, but decided to make up for it by sharing some more watercolor artwork:

No those arn’t “Amano brand tassels” she’s wearing. Again Tom at Myspace is a delicate tender little chap… there is something about the nipples of a woman’s breasts that makes him go plum loco. So in order to avoid incident, I have to come up with way to cover things up. Crazy I know.

Also a reminder to anyone out there who want to own their own Amano pinup. Commissions are still available at the discounted price. Click here for more info.

I wish everyone out there a safe and patriotic weekend. Remember to drink reponsibly and don’t drink and drive (you might hit a bump and spill your drink!).

USA!

Emerald City ComicCon 2009!

Happy Hump Day everyone!

I want to thank everyone who stopped by the Amano table this weekend at the 2009 Emerald City Comic Con. I had a lot of fun, in fact, I’d say its been a long time since I’ve been to such a great show. All the artists and guests were amazing! I was fortunate enough to meet one of my fav artists at the show, Playboy cartoonist Doug Sneyd (www.dougsneyd.com):


Doug was personalizing copies of this latest book “Unpublished” to all the fans out there. I was honored to get a Bettie Page sketch in my copy. Score!

Saturday I was pretty busy trying to get everyone’s sketches completed before the close of the show. Here’s a couple of them:


Hula girls are sexy!


Black Widow boobies galore!

Conventions are always love/hate for me. I love meeting interesting people, talented artists and tormenting the furries but just when you get in the groove of things, its over. All good things must end it seems. Or just be patient until the next show!

I’ve been pluggin away on commissions. In fact I’ll share one I just finished in time for the show this weekend:


Pale boobies.

I try to post new work when I can. Alot of the pieces I do are private tho, so no soup for you. I have also been focusing on my side project, a full color book. I’m shooting for next year to wrap it up. Its alot of work, but I’m confident that when its done it will snock your sockmonkeys off.

Speaking of sockmonkeys… Spicey stayed at home this weekend. He wasn’t happy about that. So I thought I’d make it up to him by getting him a Carla Gugino Silk Spectre doll:


Don’t let the book fool you this sockmonkey only looks at the pictures.

Well, that’s all for now. I want to dedicate this Hump Day to pinup girlie extraordinaire Miss Jeannie (www.pinuplifestyle.com/profile/MissJeannie) for hanging with me at the show this weekend:


Westside! Yea, totally gangsta!

Ok kiddies, that’s all for now. I’m wrapping up drawing and watching a little Ratatouille on DVD… then its bed time for this rum runner.

Peace, love and rum,

P.S.
Ratatouille promised to help with next week’s update, so stay tuned!

Hey monkey boys and girls!

Don’t you hate when you have exciting things to talk about and your computer goes belly up? Myspace erases a perfectly written blog post and you spill your rum all over your crotch? rum crotch?!

Well, I’m back up and running and ready to talk about last Wednesday. Not only was it Hump Day (an weekly celebration of the female form here at the Amano blog) but it was also the day Dita Von Teese was in town to perform!!!

It was taking place down at the Triple Door in the heart of Seattle. I love this venue, ultra cool place! In fact I even broke down and had a beer (yeah I know I couldn’t make it past 1 month!!)… actually I think it was 2 beers… OK, fine, it was 4 but they were delicious. Mad props to the peeps at the Widmer beer company of Portland, OR for making such a amazing drink! It was the perfect partner to my savory steak dinner as only the Wild Garlic restaurant can dish up! AAAANNND, as you can see from the photo above… dessert was AMAZING! haha.

Front row dessert no less! Primo!

Now for those of you who have not had the pleasure of seeing Dita perform live. Please drop everything (rum excluded) and catch her the next time she’s in town. Do it!! You’ll thank me later!

I had a fantastic time. I would have loved to stay for the night show but Emerald City ComicCon was this weekend and I needed to get my shit to-ge-tha for the show! All work and no play makes Amano a dull boy… but all play and no work doesn’t pay the bills. And I got a sock monkey to provide for and rums to stock!

I hope to have a post together to talk about the con this weekend up by Wednesday night. You’ll have a double deuce serving of Amano blogs this week. So stay tuned for that!

One love,
—>Amano

P.S.
Dita rules!

End transmission.
