So in the morning I fly out to Madison to spend a week at this:
Southern Graphic Council
I am really really excited. I have been to art conferences before, and they tend to suck. But after hours you get to go to shows, meet artists, and have good conversations.

Update time,
la de da.
Spring is totally peaking through the winter weather. Yesterday I didn't have to work outside of town, and I didn't go to the school either. I stayed at home and had the first honest day off I have had since I got to this state. It was awsome to open up all the windows and let the winter funk blow...

So how'd ya like Wisconsin? It's not much different from where I live (Minnesota).
So,
I feel like I have neglected my SG friends lately. I apologize for that!
Shit I feel like I have neglected everything in my life lately besides the fucking images that I put down on paper for god knows what reason. Luckily Mogwa is getting some attention, the rest of the world seems to be slipping past me rather quickly.

Being an artist is work just like any other job, the sooner people realize that the better. I've gone through exactly what you were talking about, but I have confidence you'll do just fine.

Thanks for the b-day wishes!
So the state of South Dakota banned abortion yesterday. ALL forms of abortion, even under the circumstances of rape and incest (and if the mother's life is at risk, if the doctor does not do EVERYTHING to save the feutus as well as the mother they violate the law).
I saw it coming a while ago,
I'm not surprised at all...

I had this realization last night.
That the work I am doing at this moment (art work) means a lot to me conceptually, but doesn't mean shit to me artistically. Everyone else loves it, but to me it's so fucking simple, I get nothing out of it, like bad sex... But the idea is still there, and I worked through the artistic...

Why thank you! 
I know what you're talking about with the art.
Though I've just been uninspired and bothered by the fact that NOTHING I do has any background.

Our stoner, no good (but kind of nice), complete lack of common sense/work ethic, bad rap listening, littering nieghbors (we share a house that is split into to apartments, but that have the same heating unit, and plumbing), decided that it wouldn't be a fucking problem that one of them (while stoned) accidently flushed a DOOR KNOB down the...

i swear, i will NEVER get tired of the antics of stoners... NEVER. NUNCA.
yea, i love to camp. why? you planning a trip soon?
i just started grappling. i had a few jiu jitsu classes in brazil, and i started going to a gracie/brazilian jiu jitsu school here in CT at the beginning of febuary. i used to wrestle a lot with my firends. it used to be somewhat of a hartford food not bombs tradition. but now, i'm still new. in class, i can sometimes get the more experienced grapplers on the defence and once in a while i can get a hold on them and rarely make them tap out. but this weekend in philly, my friends were trying to wrestle me and i could get them to tap out pretty easily. even with the 2 of them trying to wrestle me at the same time. granted...i'm about 80lbs heavier than each of them...but once i got tired of throwing them we'd go to the ground and grapple.
it's meant to neutralize size advantages, but i don't often find people much bigger than me to compete with.

It really does, graphic design and smothering your soul.
My new goal is to put a background to my newest illustration.
And thank you. Compliments are really nice. Adds a smile.

So Dick Cheney use to be the governor of my state.
I grew up in Wyoming.
He touted his appreciation for the outdoors, for hunting, fishing, ext as one of his saleble qualities.
I'm sure most of you know that guns, and wyoming kind of run hand in hand. I had access to guns before I knew how to read. I knew, as all my...

I hear you man, this world is too much to handle, except when it's not......but then you're basically just coping or getting by. You want to try to focus on the good things.....but it seems to be getting harder and harder. Something is bound to give sooner or later right?
I don't know if that makes sense....I haven't eaten any food since Friday and I have been a barfing machine. I don't want anything but grapefruit juice
what the fuck, it's prolly like the most acidic thing out there for an empty stomach.

Have you seen Elizabeth's work up close? It's so incredibly detailed, they all have very realistic glass eyes and the artwork is handpainted with a tiny little brush. You need to show us more of your artwork heresy.!
I'M BACK!!!!
Missed all you guys.
My computer turned narcoleptic on me, he wouldn't wake up, so I commited him to the hospital. He would just randomly fall asleep while I was typing. Anyway, he was in the ICU for a while, about two to three weeks, then they told me there was nothing they could do. So they sent me a new one.

My drawing professor called printmakers the neanderthals of the 2-dimensional artworld. We labour away with giant machines, while watercolourists use tiny delicate brushes.
