no, no, no, notorious!


The Notorious B.I.G. Well, my version of him anyways. Most rappers fascinate me. The passionate ones do anyway. Biggie, Pac, Eminem, Jay-z. They were all the underdog. Came with nothing...left with more than anyone else. They took what no one would give them. A chance. It seems like they were meant to do it. Like, it was easy. We all want to do things in life...but most of us don't. What makes them so...notorious?
This was just a sketch I did while bored and site jumping. There are some really amazing artists online. And that makes this little site here...garbage. I know nobody really cares about what I draw and I sort of force people to at least acknowledge that it exists by auto-emailing you guys everytime it updates. I guess we all just want to be admired for what we do. Even if it isn't that good. Ah well, in the next life...i'll be the great artist that people respond to. Or maybe i'll get really lucky and my child will have the art bug in her/him and really want to be great. And i'll be refreshed by what we can learn and do together. It'll probably be greater than any art job I could ever get. And I hope, that his or her dream of being a professional recognized artist comes true. And that everytime their vision touches a page or canvas someone looks at it and says, "wow. Why can't I do that?". They can. So can you. Be notorious friends.

Guard a Mouse!

So, i'm a huge fan of David Petersen who writes and draws a book called Mouse Guard.

I sorta went with his idea of a mouse in the olden days. It felt so great to get this down on paper. Like the saying goes, "learn by doing." I learned that if i put in the time and effort, i can make a detailed, designy piece. I'm really starting to be drawn to art that has a graphic design feel to it. Where the layout is just as important as the finished piece.

Well thats all for now friends. Come back soon!

Oh, and everyone should also check out Katie Cook's awesome website. Her art is so sweet and simple. Great stuff!
