compulsive compartmentalization

Captured thoughts…on exhibit in the zoo that is the blog-o-sphere.

There is no such thing on earth as an uninteresting subject; the only thing that can exist is an uninterested person. - G.K. Chesterton

I spent yesterday coloring.

Ash, Housewares.

Thursday, September 27th, 2007

I’ve been commissioned to do another Ash drawing. Here he is before I start the coloring stage…which will probably be tomorrow. Enjoy.

The internet sizes me up

Monday, September 24th, 2007

I did this just out of curiosity.
Apparently this is me. If you know me in person, do you agree or disagree? I don’t know that I do completely, but it’s probably pretty close.

behold…the workforce

Wednesday, September 19th, 2007

I really do wonder sometimes what sorts of jobs people have that allow them to show up, en masse, at Starbucks at 10:00am on a Wednesday. I mean, I’m one of those people, I suppose, but they can’t all be struggling comic book artists can they?

things that haunt me #4

Friday, September 14th, 2007

Can we truly expect something to be true of a community of believer (“church”) that isn’t true of ourselves individually? When Acts 2 talks of the church being “devoted to the apostles teaching, to the fellowship and the breaking of bread, and to prayer,” can we expect to just avoid making spending significant time [...]

Heroes vs Hydra

Monday, September 10th, 2007

This is definitely the largest and most involved commission I’ve done, and I have to admit that it was a blast! It took me about a week and it’s a little bit larger than what a 2-page comic book spread is drawn at. Needless to say even with a 12 X 18 scanner I STILL [...]

In Genesis, God said that it was not good that man be alone, so he created woman. Even though Adam had uninterrupted fellowship with God, it seems he needed human interaction in order to be complete. So the question came up, isn’t God enough? If God were enough then why would man need [...]

late summer cleaning, better late than never

Saturday, September 8th, 2007

I sit down to work, but at every turn I knock something over. A pencil rolls off my table. A ruler and eraser. I can’t print for the books in front of the printer. I can’t play the piano for the stuff on the piano bench.
My room is crashing [...]

The largest commission I’ve ever done

Friday, September 7th, 2007

In San Diego I was commissioned to do a rather large drawing with three characters, monsters, and in full-color. I started on it last Saturday and finally finished last night. (At least I think I am finished, there may be a few touch ups here and there.)
Unfortunately, I still don’t have an 11X17 [...]

Dear Hollywood,

Wednesday, September 5th, 2007

Pardon my diatribe from the last post. It was just fresh on my mind.
Speaking of fresh on my mind, here’s something else:
Dear Hollywood,
Please stop with the shaky-cam vision. My head doesn’t shake that much naturally, so it makes what’s on the screen seem completely unreal (well, more so than usual). It’s bad [...]
