Im not dead... I swear it

Ive just been working and working and working... and a bit depressed since I am still working construction. The time I have had to daw has been good though and I promise to share some of that with you as soon as I get this new macbook properly set up ( apparently the new macbook cannot run Photoshop cs2 so I have to wait for cs3... or maybe use painter to scan and import.. I dunno ) anyhow... The last few,, 5 or 6, weeks have just been work. It's jack hammering .. Sawing..hammer smashing fun.. fun not included.. I had an accident on the job last week where a large truck bed full of metal sheeting (which was attatched to a crane ) was being lowered down and I slipped and gt my leg pinned between the bed and a metal beam for a few seconds .. that was exciting, so no work for a week... 4 days in and Im ready to go back for the last 2 weeks or whatever and then go home for the holidays! ANYHOW! I hope everyone is doing well.. I promise to share some stuff soon.. it's been way too long .. if you want you can always see my stuff at

Whats been goin on .. where have I been

So I found out that I didnt get the job at Cartoon Network yesterday, I had tested for a design position on "My Gym Partner is a Monkey"... I was bummed no doubt.. but they hired Mike Kunkle.. ( Herobear and the Kid and Lead Designer on Juniper Lee ) and when I heard that I was like.. Had I known they were looking at Mike .. I dunno if I would have requested a test.. All in all Im really glad I did, It pushed me to do better work and I think I have come steps ahead of where I was. I hope Mike has fun on the show, he's a great designer and someone I admire a lot!
So Im back to looking for work .. Hopefully something will come along sooner than later... Just thought Id let ya all know.. thanks for being supportive and great friends!!!!

Also had a session last weekend.. It was a good time. I had fun seeing everyone despite the morning hangover sunday LOL
Hope things are well with everyone.. I'll post some new stuff soon..
