My Bio
Where to begin? I am a 28 year old college graduate with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 3D Animation (cool, huh?). My artistic interests and endeavors span much more than merely 3D animation, however. Some of my other interests include photography (both digital and, as an artform encompassing the traditional darkroom, film), comic strips, painting (including tie-dye of late!), ink sketches and inkblots, etc.

Down the road I hope to gain greater proficiency with the nude female form (including erotic, abstract, and conceptual work) and continue my experiments with video, paint, web design, and more.

SETI

0 min read
Saw a show hosted by Morgan Freeman on Science. It's really sad, but I used to be a big SETI supporter and had the program running on my computer, thinking it would do something... Once I even got a really high spike which gave my naive thinking some hope of capturing something. One guest on the show put it best, however, by putting it in simple perspective of physics: the nearest star is 1,000 light years away so it would take another 900 years for our earliest radio transmissions to reach them... Yet we're spending millions on satellites and the absurd premise that extraterrestrial life is 1) purposefully seeking to communicate to us throug

While I have appreciated the attention and compliments, I've realized DA isn't the right venue for my nude photography. I would definitely be interested in nude modeling down the road, but if my work shows up on a website, it'll likely be one targeting female viewers specifically (being a single straight male looking for the thoughts and compliments from that gender :D). Anyway, this way I can keep my art separate from any modeling I may do. Okay, ladies, where to? ;)

Many promises

"They made us many promises, more than I can remember, but they never kept but one: they promised to take our land and they took it." -- Luther Standing Bear "I love this land and the buffalo and will not part with it…I have heard you intend to settle us on a reservation near the mountains. I don't want to settle. I love to roam over the prairies. There I feel free and happy, but when we settle down we grow pale and die. A long time ago this land belonged to our fathers, but when I go up to the river I see camps of soldiers on its banks. These soldiers cut down my timber, they kill my buffalo and when I see that, my heart feels like bur

Thank you SO much for the:iconthxwatchplz:!!! :heart: ^w^ :iconla-plz:
Hugthank you for the compliment, Happy HolidaysKiss
Thanks for the fave! I love bead sprites. Going to be making some christmas themed soon!
Awesome! If only I could find out how to make a few bucks on these! Have you had any success selling them? I'm not sure if Etsy or another online retailer would be appropriate for mine since I don't expect to ask more than a couple bucks at most for each, and shipping isn't free :p :lol:
Yea, I have a lot of luck selling them on Etsy. It is just setting yourself apart from the competition and TONS of networking. I try and update my blog almost every day so I contain my clientele.
Thanks for the fav.
