random notes...
+ Setting February 15th or 16th as my departure date from Michigan. On to LA... I know the job market sucks there too, but I have to make it work somehow.

+ Sold some art at the C-Pop show.

+ My old buddy Kat is back in town and we hung out late into the night last night. It's good to see her again.

+ Finished a new illustrated-photo piece. It's very NSFW, so just click the silhouette preview below:



In addition to seeing the work, you can see detail shots, and download a wallpaper.

+ In addition to posting at my art site, I've also been posting some art at The Electric Ant zine blog.

+ Tokyo Zombie, the manga that Ryan and I adapted into English, won the About.com reader poll for 2008's best manga one-shot. Yay!

+ I'm downloading the Resident Evil 5 demo as I type this. The anticipation is killing me! I finally finished Fallout 3 last week (I'd gotten to the end a couple weeks ago, but purposely put off finishing it), and bought Dead Space, which I've been spending time on.

+ Got bored and painted my keyboard:


+ Been sorting through lots of stuff. Gonna run down to Columbus on Thursday to sell 8 boxes of books. I also have 5 boxes of Japanese-language books (mostly manga tankoban) that I'll have sent out later, when I get a place in LA, so I can sell them to Book-Off.

+ Almost forgot to post this, but I had a couple big gigs in mid-January. I did photography for Intersection Magazine during press days at the Detroit Auto Show (NAIAS). You can see my pics here. Later that night, I was the hired photographer for Designer's Night, the biggest event for automotive designers in the country. It's was pretty cool.

+ A Radio Flyer wagon that was hanging in our garage fell on my car, putting a dent and some scratches in the driver's door. I seem to have the worst luck keeping my little red beauty in mint condition!

+ In general, my two months in Michigan so far has been a long boring stretch of blah, punctuated by the occasional exclamation point of an art show or a photo gig. It's been nice spending time with my parents though. I've also been hanging out with some friends, although very rarely. I've sort of lost touch with a lot of people here, and the weather's been shit. More later...
