Milan Dreaming

No other city video can top this. Beautifully on point.

Friday

Show

I'm actually really exited; first time I'm getting cards printed for a show.



Keep it fancy. Peace

Monday

First two

Although I was already aware how much I suck at taking pictures today I realized how much I seriously suck at taking photos of my own art work. But what can I do? It has been about a week and a half of what I like to think its hard work and finally I got the first two big pieces down. Pretty exited for the next ones.





Saturday

The Creation of a Song

I can say that anyone that has ever done anything creatively has encountered times like this, when simply nothing gets through you, and inspiration seems to be some mythical creature that doesn't exist. But it's in there somewhere you just gotta scratch that surface. Great video.

Wednesday

World Order

Why did I just find out that Genki Sudo is in World Order? am I that behind on stuff? I'm ashamed of myself...







Monday

Here Comes The Neighborhood

Everyone NEEDS to check this out. There's nothing else I could think of they could have done to make it better. First three episodes here; head to HCTN.tv for the rest.







Friday

T

Just finished one. but amazingly it's not even for the show... I really enjoy making art with an owner in mind because I simply don't care about it. It sounds sad, but that's when I make the best paintings. I take risks, I'm fast and I do things I wouldn't normally do.





Thursday

Getting ready

About to start what might be my first gallery show in February. It's nothing too big, but I am pretty exited for it. Only about two months to paint the entire show, but that's exactly what brings the best out of me. due dates and procrastination. Show in January and first gallery show in February. Great way to start 2012.

Wednesday

Recent

For a really long time my approach when painting has been mostly tedious and boring, but lately I've been trying to get away from that process. I found that almost perfect space where chaos becomes aesthetic. Cope with the horrible horrible pictures. 








I have always Expected that the only way to grow artistically is by painting more and more, but after taking a time off of painting I realized I did not want to hone my skills. Instead what I needed was to simply grow mentally when approaching anything I do creatively. For a long time I have been pushing myself, but at the same time never leaving that comfort zone. I realized that when I don't care about the outcome and I'm simply driven by what I like I will always be satisfied. I like where I'm headed.


Wednesday

Genious!

Gavin McInness. he's VICE founder for a reason... one of those few videos where I actually laugh out loud.

Interesting

Tuesday

JR

Long but inspiring. the guy is a genius...

Sunday

Schoolyard Antics 3

The night started at Somos with artwork by Elijah Pfotebhauer, Basic Lee, and Mark Mike Gonzales, which then moved to main for some live artwork and music. don't miss the next one!





I think no ones better than me at taking eye closed pictures. three out of four.


My recording did not work, so here's the actual video. people who left early I hope you regret it.

Friday

Sweet!

The best week of the year so far! Started the week with Emily and I now having the same last names, and now I have decent buttons. Perfect!


Ghetto button and sanwa button




Thursday

100 Yen trailer

Dave & Buster's? hah!!... I have to see this!

A Decade Latter

Which if you make the math it is a really long time... It has been probably a little too long making it agonizing not hearing or seeing nothing at all about a sequel of the Marvel Vs Capcom series, which only build up and demonstrated how much of a great game MVC2 is. but all this wait was well regarded; maybe not to the standards of MVC2. But I am not here to compare. Overall the game is more of what I expected by itself with the addition of aerial team combos and enhanced hyper combos looking better than ever. What else can you ask for? with the exception of more and more characters! but who cares, right? I always choose the same ones anyways.

Thursday

Made my day

This is pure genius! I have no idea whatsoever how people come up with these ideas.

Monday

Weekend

First nice weekend of the year. It was still somewhat cold, but what else can you expect from Monterey. It's sad to have the ocean so close and never go. I need to appreciate it more...




last Friday

Went to the art show Le feme fatale art show opening. 






Saturday

After a long time

First time consuming and annoyingly repetitive piece of the year. I love and hate the process all at the very same time of pieces like this.  But at the end I love every single bit of it. Number 4 of this year...
