HOLY MOLELY

It's all over folks. This kid is no longer matriculating. The day of Graduation seemed like any other day to me at first. When I started telling people I work with that I was graduating that day I received hugs and handshakes from everyone. Then it finally hit me that this was a pretty important day and high acheivement.

The Ceremony didn't take too long and it was fun joking with the Design kids before and after. Then I ate dinner with my family and God family which is always a hilarious time of joking and sharing stories. And then they gave me my graduation gift. It was amazing. They gave me the entire Ghostbuster cartoon collection on DVD in this sweet firehouse box. Literally, I can not think of a better gift to an ex-obsessed Ghostbuster fan. I only say ex because most of my Ghostbuster toys are lost or broken, and I don't have the time to devote to creating sweet ghoulish Ghostbuster senerios anymore. I'll post some old pictures of me in my Ghostbuster jumpsuit.

After that Paige and I watched "Lost" with another couple. We are almost through Season 2 now; very exciting.

THEN, Paige and I met up with another friend to watch "Hook" at the Palace. The movie is great, but what made it even more funny was the over-weight man snoring during all the quiet parts. He would wake up during the fight scenes, but as soon as the volume came down, and the actors were talking in serious tones it was like, "Que the snoring." Everytime. At the end of the movie the whole theater was cracking up over this guy's habitual snoring. I would have said something since I happened to be the closest to him, but he keeped making me laugh.

Saturday was the annual White Elephant gift exchange with my family. This has become a very competitive fun game for us. In fact, it's an art. Our Grandmother always hids a $20.00 bill in an indiscrimant object, while other put in good gifts and duds. Not to mention we have two reacurring gifts that come back every year. One is a ceramic pig and another fairly recent one is this softcore video. The video was hidden within a "Batman: The Dark Knight" DVD case which Paige ended up with. What a huge letdown. Getting your hopes up to getting the sweetest movie of the year only to find out it's 80's porn.

Sunday was also amazing. Paige and ate dinner with a friend I met this semester in my Team Sports class. We met a larger group to see "Seven Pounds." The movie was great and it turns out one of the larger group of people was an old close friend of mine I haven't seen in a year or so. Suffice to say this weeked was awesome, completely blessed by God.

THE END OF AN ERA

The night I have longed for several times through my college career, the last night of project making. I'm putting the fine tunes on my comic book projects to turn in tomorrow for my LAST FINAL EVER. Well, I'm sure it's not ever. I'll probably go back to school later because I really enjoy school and expanding my brain. 

I graduate on Friday and it is weird.

PAST MEMORIES AND NEW INSIGHT


Hello all. first, the quick ink drawing I did was to loosen up my tight style. I have a feeling I have a lot more work to do to do that.


Second, I've had a great week. I had the chance to connect and catch up with an old friend. His name is Victor and he is the bomb. He's the most loving individual you will ever met.


Also, something very exciting has happened. My cousin the famous Las Vegas lounge singer Chance Thompson is selling a personalized, autographed photo of himself on e-bay. I believe the funds are going to a charity for Christmas. So check him out at this LINK.

"LET IT RAIN!"







First, and foremost, I am trying to keep a consistant blog now by posting past work and current projects. I originally set up this blog to document my quest of drawing everyday during the summer.

The works I am posting today I did sometime ago in my Design 250, a.k.a. Self-Portrait class. And yes, I do think of myself as a lion. This is the class where I fell in love with scratchboard and pen and ink. Incidentally, the two mediums I hated the most in High School. There's some pastel work and colored pencil, but the fav for me is pen and ink.
Last night my girlfriend, mother, foreign exchange student, and I went to see The Hughes Family perform Christmas songs at the local Mormon Church last night. No one from my group is Mormon, but Paige's family is. They were fantastic. It's a family of five (only four were there) and it was angelic. Also, we heard SIX perform the day before and they were amazing too.
Who out there has odd family traditions? Send me a comment. I want to see if your family is as weird as mine.

"MY ABSENCE DOTH NEGLECT NO GREAT DESIGN"






Merry Christmas all. Well, tonight was my family's annual Christmas ornament hanging time. The cutie is my girlfriend the one and only Elizabeth Paige B. The blonde is my Sis who is a Graphic Designer. The dude is her husband who I caught with an old, confused man look on his face. 

The other picture is a Lithograph I just finished in my printmaking class. Lithography is a pretty sweet medium. It's messy, but sweet. The drawing is not of my own concoction. The artist who drew it is Rafael Grampa. The man is a visual genius in my opinion. 

Congratulations to my friend Matt Gallion and his new wife Hillary. Sorry I could not be there to celebrate with you guys. Goodnight.
