-against my better judgement, i am now going to post this thing. i realized about a week ago that i very rarely draw anything cute. this is intentionally cute. try to not die.

recently, i keep getting reminded of a very comforting thought.
no matter how eccentric you are, no matter how crazy you think you are, and, most importantly, no matter how alone you feel in this world because of these things, there are others out there that are the same as you. you just have to be patient, never giving up hope. meeting them is inevitable.
you are never alone forever.

and, now i'm 23. all i've got to say is: FUCK YOU, DARWIN! I'VE SOMEHOW SURVIVED ANOTHER YEAR!
furthermore, something posessed me to write a bio for my LJ. gods, what horrible path am i walking down
-no real relevance to this pic, aside from that it is in honor of the hunter's moon (Nov 2), and that it is the last drawing i did as a 22 year old.

well, this quiz intrigued me. had to give it a shot.
 | I am:William Gibson The chief instigator of the "cyberpunk" wave of the 1980s, his razzle-dazzle futuristic intrigues were, for a while, the most imitated work in science fiction. |
Which science fiction writer are you?
hm. i think i'll take it. gibson is pretty damn good.

what the hell is this. i haven't posted this often since... well... years ago-- back when drawing was new and exciting to me. suddenly have the desire *and* time to draw, and i'm *actually* doing it instead of being a lazy ass. even if it's just a bunch of random sketches, i'm actually *doing* something. it's... unsettling.
-random sketch. on a related note, i HATE latex gloves.
EDIT-- OCT 29, 2009, 8:24
holy CRAP, i can't let this one go. CNN.com has recently redone their website. not a big deal. however, i noticed today that they replaced their "crime" section with... a "justice" section. gods, i hate abusing words in such a manner. cnn, your bias is showing.

too much stress. too much fucked up shit going on. thank god the week is almost over. not that it'll help.
-i've always used drawing as a stress relief. it is amazingly meditative. you know it's bad when i break out the colored pencils. also, this one is inspired by "Further" by Lifeforce (originally by VNV Nation). LOOK IT UP, DAMNIT
at the end of days
at the end of time
when the sun burns out
will any of this matter?
who will be there
to remember who we were?
who will be there to know that
any of this had meaning for us?

STOLEN FROM ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) yandered
i've got a silly little fascination with horoscope-esque things that try to tell you what you're like based off of when you're born. all too often is the scorpio horoscope accurate enough that i give them a second look. this one just struck me as eerie.
here's the deal:
1. Pick the month of your birth.
2. Bold the 5-10 things that most apply to you
3. Strike out everything that doesn't apply to you.
4. Place the list of all the months under a cut
NOVEMBER:
Has a lot of ideas. Difficult to fathom. Thinks forward. Unique and brilliant. Extraordinary ideas. Sharp thinking. Fine and strong clairvoyance. Can become good doctors. Dynamic in personality. Secretive. Inquisitive. Knows how to dig secrets. Always thinking. Less talkative but amiable. Brave and generous. Patient. Stubborn and hard-hearted. If there is a will, there is a way. Determined. Never give up. Hardly becomes angry unless provoked. Loves to be alone. Thinks differently from others. Sharp-minded. Motivates oneself. Does not appreciate praises. High-spirited (well, maybe sometimes).Well-built and tough. Deep love and emotions. Romantic. Uncertain in relationships. Homely. Hardworking. High abilities. Trustworthy. Honest and keeps secrets. Not able to control emotions. Unpredictable.
Well, at least that's what i think about myself -- which is sometimes not as accurate as i like. still, waaay too much on this one for the 10 positive limit. if i had unlimited, then it'd look something like this:

( the rest of the months )
anyway, now on to the art.
-NEED TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO DRAW WINGS, DAMNIT! XD

Despite my efforts to keep this primarily an art livejournal, putting up images typically dealing with a part of my life, advancements in drawing technique, comics, etc. i feel the urge to occasionally throw things on here for my own selfish purposes. when faced with a really difficult situation, i have found that i can always make things more rational and logical by actually writing out what i feel. even more, from time to time, i will draw... cathartic... images. usually i either destroy them afterward, or stash them away, but this one posted below was just beyond me to destroy.
so with that said, everything under this cut is primarily for myself. if you feel compelled to read it, be warned that it could be filled with some rather personal information on an experience that the vast majority of you know nothing about. a part of me keeps yelling at me 'don't put this up,' but the winning part is saying 'write it down. put it up. it'll help you heal.'
( ”more" )
...i need to get so drunk.

so i downloaded a free version of the art software known as gimp. it loads fast and does everything i ask and more, with an easy to use interface.
-though i struggled a bit with getting the layers to work, i managed to whip this thing up in about 15 minutes (the final sketch that you now see taking about 5 to do)

the result of an inside joke gone horribly, horribly wrong. this is a metroid talking on a bannana phone.
--and, THIS CONVERSATION ACTUALLY HAPPENED between my boss and I

so, on to some art. i've drawn some stuff over the past month. just haven't been able to get the ambition to hook my scanner up.
also, don't forget to go here! -- http://black-the-fox.livejournal.com/
-didn't realize this until later, but you can see the outline of the next sketch in the background
-that sketch being this one
-more experimentation with backgrounds
-and another random sketch

GO HERE: http://black-the-fox.livejournal.com/
there? now bookmark it.
i've decided to celebrate full time employment by actually attempting to do a full time comic. i'm going to give weekly updates a shot, starting with page 1.
does this mean that this jornal will be abbandoned? probably not. this one'll just function as a general art journal.

went to niagra falls this past weekend with most of my lab group (there are 25 of us total!). this is outside the 'cave of the winds' attraction. i really enjoyed it, but then i remembered the whole "this water is coming from one of the great lakes. i'm going to get cancer now. "and then, i remembered all the good things in the lovely superfund site Love Canal, located somewhere upriver, too. "supercancer" comes to mind. XD
despite the cancer, it was still a good time

well, it's been over a month since my last post. the summer is going well... unusually well. if i were a more superstitious person, i would probably brace myself for the inevitable crash that's bound to come. meh.
and now, some art!
- Page 7 of the comic

you ever have one of those days where you wake up and realize that something is very *very* wrong, but you can't put your finger on what it is? i've been having one of those. what the hell can someone do about something like that?

|
[31 May 2009|11:35pm] |
-some more random art
-and... A NEW PAGE OF COMIC (page 6, or 17 if you count the 11 pages of the previous attempt at this comic. the story somehow meshes, but not perfectly)! for whatever reason, scanning "color" instead of "greyscale" makes the shading show up much better.
