orientation...

what i learned from Billy during orientation today...Disney owns everything. oh, and the artists behind the characters that we love are hardly worth mentioning and are of subtle importance...let's talk about Disneyland and the 5 key elements in our business model instead.

they shouldn't have installed a drawing app on the iPads they let us barrow...this is Billy...

Memorial Day...

happy Memorial Day.  it isn't always about the bad and the bitterness...

in L.A...

the first of many obvious signs i'm back in Los Angeles.  please excuse my incredible exaggeration...

back to L.A i go...

well, friends, guess i'm moving back to the L.A town. for some unknown reason i've been offered a chance to art direct at Disney T.V. on a new show that's to air next year. God help me and everyone at the mouse house. my leave will hopefully commence in approximately 2-3 weeks. let's share beers before we break our Bay Area bond and venture our separate ways. and L.A friends, let's have a reunion like no other so i can see your industry-worn/lovely faces...

this is my exit song...

"oh we're so baaad...bad and naughty"

troubles of a clown...

a quick and hideous image... :-)  :-(

couple more train peoples...

train peoples + skull thingy

yoga pants perve...

yoga pants leave very little to the imagination, or make it easier to be imaginative...

a change of work environment...

needed to create a bit of discomfort and move my work station to a new joint.  we shall see the chaos that ensues...

pa and his boy...

one track mind...

"Charlie in the rain". a new painting...

a new "painting" (36 x 36) of my boy, Charlie, who passed away Friday, November 15.  he liked lying in the shade of bushes and sitting stout-like in the drizzling rain.  an absolute badass, and i miss him a lot...

ten hand made books...

since December 2009 i've been making my own drawing books...well, punching and binding them with old book covers, to be exact. just made book # 10. so much growth, thank God...

guns make me sad...

"Snow Queen" to "Frozen"...

i'll regret posting this, but here are some old and simple concepts from 2008 during my Disney internship for "Snow Queen", now "Frozen".  have yet to see the movie in theaters, but my idea was a story based on broken hearts and isolation from all things joyful.  am grateful my skills have improved a great deal since then.  bloody hell...

the press room...

an overnight stay in Santa Barbara; went bar hopping to occupy the time, and stumbled upon this less "pretty" pub called The Press Room. my kind of joint...

birds do it, bees do it, even educated fleas do it...
