In brief....
I wanted to say a bit about the artists I'm "watching" here on the Deev. The ones I've chosen, all have a particular trait... they rock. They all have a spark that ignites in me, the need to be the best I can be. I only want to "watch" the ones who, by the magnitude of their talent, pushes me. In this profession we've all either chosen, or are in, it seems to eat alive, with glistening, crimson coated teeth, those how are lazy, or don't take this seriously.
I'm not saying that comic is a "serious" medium, one that should be analyzed and pondered over. But serious in the sense that it take dedication, determination, ingenuity, and talent, to work in this industry. And the wondrous artist I follow, seem to have that. And it is my hope, that by following them, I will foster a gentleman competition, to be as good, if not better than they are...it helps me...I crave challenges, and in here, challenges are a plenty.
So, a tip of the Cubs cap to you guys, I'll be posting soon, and expect to have it ripped into, because it takes mistakes, to be great!

Long time gone, and NYCC 2014 love.
Ok, This is going to be incredibly brief, mostly because I'm hungry and working and I just want to get back to work.
I created a comic book called Drag, a melancholy bayou gothic fairy tale (that's more words than anyone would have to have spewed at them), and I'm writing and illustrating it. I've posted the pages to my gallery, and may categorize them into one folder, separate from the other doodles.
I had an exceptionally motivating NYCC 2014. Kelly Sue DeConnick looked at my book and didn't cringe (a good thing), and her words of encouragement were like a cool drink, to a parched desert refugee. Ok, that's a bit to D.H. Lawrence, but it
Yikes!..Almost a full year?
This is going to be about as brief as it gets, for a journal entry. As I'm at my job, and just realized how woefully neglected this page has become. There's a good reason for it, actually..."wanna hear it?..here it go!"
Since signing up for deviant art, I've been writing and looking for comic book collaborators, from here, to craigslist, to digital webbing, to pencil jack. I've been listening to every podcast panel, every video blog, blog, and tweet, sifting the nuggets of wisdom, from industry pro. I've been haunting the sites of iFanboy, Comic Book Resources, Around Comics, Word Balloon, and Comic Twart, devouring anything and everything t
My luck is quite good...
But only if I don't push it, to levels that would caution even the most fortunate.
I say this because, I sit at my desk, ticking the hours off like pulling petals from a remarkably large flower. One by one, miunute by languorous minute I wait for the moment I can put my computer to sleep, shit off my desk light, and go home at a scout's pace.
The reasons for this enthusiastic exodus homeward, are many. Lounging in one's boxers, eating Cheetos and watching "Family Guy". Not my particular reasons, those are just and extreme illustrative. My reasons however, are just as good. I get to write/sketch/plan/repeat.
I'm currently, and lovingly work
