Sometimes I create images that suck, and that’s OK. I’m falling behind on the 52 Week Project, I’m not gonna sit here and make up excuses though cause all there is to it is bad time management. But because I fall behind, I rush to create something.. which ends up kinda awful. The last two themes for…
I loved this week’s theme. There were so many images I wanted to create but decided to focus on one. I want to walk until the road and I become one I want to go back but there is no way for me to turn around I can only go straight from here I can…

I know, I know – I’m late again. I’ve been working on a bunch of different things all at once and I couldn’t work on the image for the 52 week project as much as I wanted to. A while back I started feeling like I was relying on the project to make new pictures…
I initially wanted to write a blog post only about a project I’m involved in, called Restart The Art, but I just finished working on my new picture for the 52 Week Project and I felt like the picture works well with the idea of the project. Restart The Art is an amazing idea by…
I’ve been super excited to share this with you guys! Last week’s theme for the 52 week project was mythology. I considered doing something based on mermaids for just a few seconds but then I decided I really wanted a dragon in my picture! I wasn’t sure how to make it happen, but then I contacted…
Last week’s theme for the 52 Week Project was window light. I had this super cool idea, well it was super cool in my head, with a huge window and a silhouette and light rays and dust aaaand I couldn’t do it haha. I did a test and it just didn’t work, and after discussing…
