sure brotha! take some time.. no need to rush anything..


i have some new drawings posted on my site. check 'er out.


ok - thematically or physically. i prefer a topic of some sort. if i wanted to just create, i'd smoke drugs, make a huge mess and waste paint, and call it... ..abstract art.

i'd first like to look at what sorts of things we have at our disposal. i'll go first - my wife is going to korea in august, so she can get big huge lightbox printouts done there and bring them back with her. i have a cottage - lots of nature type stuff. i have a friend who's a graphic design teacher at algonquin college who'd be up for helping out (and then there's all the other ex-queen's kids). my parents will be building a house on four acres of land that they recently bought this summer, so there'll be lots of tree cutting and digging and stuff.

the outsider looking in idea is ok - it was different for me, though. i really enjoyed it, and felt comfortable and appreciated pretty much the whole time. My experience would come across more as a vacation than some "hardship" or "odd foreign experience". i'm hoping to go to university in korea in a couple of years from now - maybe that topic would be really good then! i'd be trying to fit in. I was considered separate from society when i was an engish teacher, rather than part of it.

though i bashed abstract above, im not totally closed to sqirly, swishy art.

ok. 'nough for now. gotta think more. and im hungry.
