its been a while...

Journal Entry: Sun Nov 22, 2009, 9:43 PM
I have been so incredibly swamped with everything happening all at once! I finally have a few moments where I can catch you guys up on whats going on!!! I now have 2 jobs and classes full time so Im lucky to get on here for longer than 5 minutes.

First some cool news!! I was a winner in another contest for A Man of His Word :wow: go read all about it [link]
Im also a quater finalist in another contest soon to be a semifinalist... voting's happening now. go pick your fav [link]

...Basically Ive been stressing over getting portfolio work done for transferring to a new school, I need like 5 or 6 more traditional pieces done in like a week :( sucks I know! I did all the necessary transfer crap for 2 colleges... I got accepted to Tyler School of Art and Im waiting on word from the other... I have choices to make!

Along with that I've been racing around trying to get a high quality print of My Morgan Typography because... ill get to that in a moment (thats a whole other story)... Finally got enough money to get the darn thing payed for and I expect it with in a few days. :excited:

...back to that story =p One of my professors loved A Man of His Word so much that she insisted (forced me haha) that I present a print of it (which she provided, [i dont know what she was thinking but the print looked not very impressive. its was pixelated, drained of any color, just not very pleasing]) to my college's president to be put in the permanent art collection... Im now the youngest artist to be inducted into the collection!!! Because of the induction I will be in the local newspapers, I had an interview and everything, it was weird haha. They want to include a picture of me and my print of AMoHW in the article so thats why I wanted a nicer quality.

Also I needed the nicer print because another of my professors expects it to be in the college's student art show which is happening in about 2 weeks. and I wanted it!

Well now Im almost positive there are like 5 other things I could write about but im not going to, I have work at 2 am (an hour and a half) and then again at 9am so im going to bed...

And to all those waiting for my next digital artwork it might be a while, sorry :(

It might be at least until mid december until Im back in full swing again so ta ta for now and I wish the best to everyone :D




Sorry for the long story, just had to let loose for a second

Oh oh I almost forgot... THANK YOU TO :iconmordaunt: for the 3 month Prem Sub prize for winning the heroes contest
