From faux finishing to electronic media!

Yeah, not doing the faux finishing gig anymore... actually haven't been doing it for about a year or so since I settled in with a badass job as a design lead for a firm near the "city." Things are going pretty well, but i've been terribly busy.

i'll post again, I promise.

Holy crap, where the hell have I been?

Working! Yay! But, there's no telling on whether or not it's going to last or how frequent i'm going to get work. Currently, i've been learning everything from my uncle that I can about murals and faux finishing. The faux part has been something i've been pretty good at, but when it comes to hand painted art...

Lots to talk about, but not enough time at the moment. My buddy Alain is coming over and we're going to cut a track for a production group called Ursa Minor, but i'm having to clean my room up all shiny before him and Seth get here. Fret not, I haven't disappeared completely, nor is this site a "fad" of any sort for me.

Keeping up with the fan art may or may not be tricky as long as I keep pacing myself. As I can even tell from just the small series that i've done so far, i'm keep to a strict pattern of vector art with photo-manipulation... so far, the results are pleasing to my eyes, but maybe i'll mix it up after my first set. I've...

The excitement never stops:

Slow day today. The commute to UC Davis sucks ass, of course, it wouldn't be so bad if i actually had air conditioning in my 184 Toyota Pickup (it's a real chick magnet ). So, my job hunt still continues... i hate to do it, but i think i'm going to have to ask my ex for a favor concerning some...

Changing Lanes:

So, ZooYork sounds like they're biting for the skate deck project - which means happy money in my pocket, but by no means a solid job. I'm almost out of school, although a lot of design firms are requiring a lot of specialization that I can't really bring to the table without a couple different certification courses, and possibly some refresher classes at...

It's not over yet.
(no no, it could have been, but it's not.)

Alrighty, so most of my upgrade is done. I had a bitch of a time getting my motherboard to interface with the new processor. It turns out that i had to flash "teh bios chipset" to make sure "teh computar" would communicate properly to the rest of the components. Unfortunately, in order...

The advent of technology:

Just got my new video card in the mail today, a day early thanks to FedEx might I add. This month alone, i've spent somewhere around the ballpark of $600 to upgrade my current computer so that my girlfriend would benefit from the hand-me-down parts of what this beast of a machine is still capable. Needless to say, she's pretty excited...
