This Won't Take As Long

I'm expecting this to be finished a lot faster than it took to finish Lynch...I hope.

Lynch

It's been a long journey and a bit of a uphill battle for me with this piece. A lot of care and attention to detail went into every waking moment spent while working on it. Not only does it depict one of my favorite directors (David Lynch) but I feel it also captures a very troubling yet interesting time for me. While working on this I managed to go through several ruts, fits of anger and even a lack of motivation/inspiration. A lot had to do with the fact that I just didn't have the time to sit down and think about the piece properly. These emotions and experiences are documented well within the picture and I hope you can see it all. Without it, I don't think it would've even come close to what I was aiming for. It's really interesting how much this effected me and how in the end, I was the one grasping at strings.

Falling Off The Horse A Bit.

It seems like every time I get a chance to write in this thing, I'm making some sort of excuse as to why I'm not updating it regularly. The truth of the matter is I keep hitting these massive blocks of inspiration and motivation that I just lack the energy to sit down and think of what to write or even what to draw. It's been very frustrating. I know it all stems from my job. Being part of what seems like a soul crushing environment doesn't really help the situation at all. But I'm dusting the cob webs off yet again and I'm hard at work at finishing several pieces. I'm going to do my best at trying to frequently update this thing. Oh and that food blog thing totally blew up in my face. My lunch's were just getting boring and I didn't see the point anymore. But I'm working on somewhat of a similar project that should be starting at the beginning of the year. So for now, here's a sneak peek at what I'm trying to finish. I don't even remember when I started this fucking thing. I just want to get it finished and move on. Which pains me to say because I actually really love this piece but fuck, I need to get my act together and FINISH IT.

Whats For Lunch? pt.3

Yet again, late on this one. Sorry. I seriously need to set reminders for these things. I feel like an old man sometimes. So for this installment, I didn't have much to work with. Actually, I didn't have anything to work with, so I got myself some subway. Believe me when I say, I really hate these days. I love my sandwich's as much as the next guy but there's just no love in these things. I guess it's time to hit up the super market.

Whats For Lunch?

I wanted to start this little experiment yesterday but really couldn't find the time to actually sit down and write this up. So I'm going to make up for it by making this a double shot. Now you're probably asking yourself, "What is he talking about?". Well, a few months ago I decided to document my life through the lunches I make. One picture, one meal, every day. The idea came to me while having a boring little lunch at work and trying to make it a little more enjoyable by making comments to myself on post-it's next to my lunch.

So the first entry was taken on my birthday which was Tuesday. Twenty-three years old and this is what I'm doing with my life. I didn't have anything fresh at home so I whipped something up using left overs. I had some left over papa rellena that my grandmother had made for me over the weekend and placed it with some left over steam rice, chicken and broccoli left overs. They both complimented each other quite nicely. I spiced it up by sprinkling a little seasoning on the chicken as well as mixing it with a garlic sauce.



For today I wanted to take it easy with my food intake since I ate like a pig the night before. It was my birthday so I didn't give a shit. I took left over veggie's with some ground turkey and mixed it together. I then prepared a little baggie with reduced fat Wheat Thins and placed on the side and had accidentally made a taco dish. It wasn't even planned but I was quite happy with the end result.


Well that's it for today. Hope whoever ends up reading this enjoys it. Let's see what I whip up for tomorrow! Probably something disgusting. See ya!

Late Night Sketch Work

Touching up the sketch tonight. Still not done with Lynch. Almost there, I promise!

A Few Sketches To Hold Ya Over

The gears are turning. The cob webs are being shaken off. It's time to get back on track. The fall season seems to be helping out a lot. During my travels this weekend, I saw many Halloween items and holy shit did it put me in high spirits. So expect to see a lot of new stuff coming your way. Until then, enjoy some character sketches I did for a story I'm working on and a little doodle of Morpheus from The Matrix.
