Business

Only once in my life have I been paid for my works and it wasn't to purchase my art, but an award in an art contest. Although I have already posted an image of this piece, here it is again:

Autumn Melodies
I was also once offered money for one of my pieces but it was one of my favorite pieces, of my cat, Yoshi, so I just couldn't let go of it. Also, I was young and did not know how to price my work. Below is the piece; I believe describes him best. It really depicts how cross-eyed and goofy he looks:

Yoshi
And although I have created other logos before...

Deuce Deuce
Soon to be apparel for women with those HUGE boobies! Ha. Hopefully, I will have a link to put up soon.
... this newest logo, is one that I will actually be paid for. I used to feel uncomfortable charging but since he offered, maybe a new leaf is turning. For all you cheapskates out there, you better hope you got your logo, tattoo, or piece of art off me already because I might just start charging!

Work



If you leave me with anything that I can make art from, I will. Last night at San Carlos Restaurant, I found it necessary to be a little creative with our seating chart as I seated customers at their tables. I love my job.

Mmmmm Cake

For my mom's birthday I made her favorite, Carrot Cake. I was inspired by one of my best friend's mom's amazing cake decorating skills:

My cake is below... not as good as the one above but I tried. Ha. It tasted pretty damn good though.

Cream Cheese frosting with shredded carrots and raisins around the base, and a carrot curl and raisins on top.

Coat of Arms


A while ago, I made this Coat of Arms tattoo for a friend. He ended up changing his mind about it but I think it turned out pretty cool. Definitely one of my favorites.

Religion

I know it has been a while since my last post because I haven't had much time to draw but today, I finished another tattoo. It is the first religious piece that I have done. That being said, it really isn't that religious (I mean, it has a bible verse) but it isn't like I drew a god or anything.
