1000th page view prize...

Yeah, it's been done. But it is a good way to boost the views, I admit. I've been busy these days, but I need to get back behind the wheel of the artsy bus. I don't feel right when I'm not creating something. Expect to see more from me soon, just waiting to dual boot this lame mac into a windows running machine and put Photoshop on it. Finally, a computer with a good enough video card to support the native resolution of my monitor! No more overly-narrow pictures. Hurrah!

I won't continue to spew useless banter, I'll spare you the migraine.

So just catch my one thousandth page view with a screenshot, and you get a digital painting, manipulation... anything you like.

Hey there, you've got some really striking and poignant images in your gallery, good on you for speaking out about the uncomfortable subjects that so many people shy away from.
keep up the great work. :)

Thank you very much. Thanks for the :+favs: and comments. The praise is very much appreciated as well, I'm glad you enjoy my work and insight. I like to demonstrate a point.

As I see you watching, my heart crumbles. What have i done. You stare at me, the agony pleading through your bloodshot eyes. Like my happiness you vanish. Goodbye, I love you.

Hey there. How are you? Hope to see you on the GDC boards more often... Recent inactivity there makes me sad. What was once an amazing resource and outlet, has dwindled to a few devoted members. It's a shame.

I'm sure it will pick up again, it's a very helpful forum with wicked members. Now that HL has gotten lame, not so many new faces have surfaced. We need Evan to get her butt back on so we all can decide on a plan to get the GDC back on it's feet.

I fucking love your work!! You always seem to come up with some original idea that I've been thinking in my head for the longest time, but never could figure out a way to express them, be it verbally or artistically. I especially love the one with the wolves. I love wolves!! And it is so true. Keep up the good work!!! I look forward to seeing what you come up with next.

Of course you'd say that James ;)
I won't beat you up if you admit otherwise.

why do you always have to contradict what i say? maybe i like your work more than others because you are my wife, but how do you know i don't genuinely feel that way about your work? give me a little more credit than that. of course i'm going to like anything you make, but there are still some pieces that i like more than others because they really strike a chord with how i'm feeling or have felt in the past.
