Day 510 of 365 More. Now here’s the boring part. I got all the fun parts of Elseworld done. I filmed my lights tutorial for the 365 Podcast. So tonight was spent doing the tedious bits. Fixing mistakes. Shooting retakes. Editting video. Ugh. Why can’t I pick simple hobbies. This is the same kinda stuff…

Day 443 of 365 More. It was a day of birthdays. After the football game today (wherein, the Steelers returned to their previous winning ways). Steph and I went out with her family to celebrate her grandfather’s 91st birthday. She didn’t know what to get him, but we knew he was a football fan so…

Day 435 of 365 More. And so Halloween begins, with the first costume contest of the year. This time at Liz’s (one of my model’s) houses. Had a great time, played some drinking games and it looks like I picked up another model for a future shoot. All in all it was a good day,…

Three of Coins

Three of Coins

Weird thing about this whole being an artist gig. When I was at a friends wedding the other day, I got introduced to a model and we started talking about the Tarot project and she instantly wanted to do it. So we swapped numbers and here we are, the first tarot card I’ve finished in a while.

I was worried about this one actually, as per all coin cards, it had to be sepia, but as per the concept of three cards, it had to be a mirror or clone shot. I was worried that the sepia against the B&W of a cup card would be too weird, but I actually kind of like it. It really kind of gives me the yin yang sense that I’m trying to pull off with the threes.

Day 392 of 365 More. So today I started filling out preliminary paperwork to start at what I’ve been calling job #2. Next week. I guess you could say its a done deal. But its not. It’s like at 99% certainty, but if life kicking me in the ass repeatedly over the last 33+ years…

Day 337 of 365 days. First of all Happy Birthday to my mom. Second Happy Birthday to Lisa. Steph and I went to Lisa’s house for her birthday/housewarming today. Technically, her birthday was yesterday. And technically, the house doesn’t belong to her, it belongs to her housemate, but she was a lot cuter than him…

Day 283 of 365 days. Had another photoshoot today, and I still haven’t finished editing yesterday’s shots. I did put up the Page of Cups card that I put together to both some positive and negative feedback, so I’d appreciate as much other feedback on that (and for that matter, the previous days, Queen of…

Day 218 of 365 days. Three days of color in a row. It’s been a long time since I did that. And Max is still out of the country so I can’t even brag to him about it. Had a busy day today and no time to really come up with any thing crazy. Finally…

Day 104 of 365 days. Thanksgiving day. Spent it with Steph’s family. I think I may be 20 pounds heavier, but what the hell, thanksgiving only comes once a year. I really want to go to the door buster sales tomorrow, but I can’t convince Steph to go with me. Some people have no Christmas…

Day 82 of 365 days. A long day at work. But then aren’t they all. Somedays I feel like maybe this whole, making money to keep a roof over our heads thing is overrated. Who needs a roof anyway. A cardboard box would be just fine. Of course, I don’t know if my bar would…

Day 61 of 365 days. I actually had kind of a photoshoppy idea for today, but then I wasn’t really in the mood. Had my weekly poker game tonight, and after having an early commanding lead for quite a while, but after a couple bad breaks I ended up getting eliminated first. That’s just how…
