Day 453 of 365 More. Here’s how my brain works. I’m actually not as into this project as I used to be. I lost my fascination with it ages ago. I don’t daydream about it. I don’t obsess over getting a specific shot every day. At this point, its pure inertia that gets me through…

Day 450 of 365 More. You know its a great party when you have trouble getting out of bed the next morning. Last night was a great party. Of course, i didn’t wake up in bed with four hot babes, two midgets and a donkey, but hey, it was just halloween, not jammy jam, so…

Day 444 of 365 More. Random Mav-fact: I don’t sleep. I never have. I don’t know why, but for almost as long as I can remember, I’ve slept a lot less than I ever should have. Sometimes I’m not tired. Sometimes I am and I just can’t sleep. Anyway, it means I have a lot…

Day 439 of 365 More. Got a lot accomplished at work today, but still feeling pretty worn out by it all. It’s only Wednesday but at this point, I’m dying for it to be the weekend. I’m just beat. Had a poker game tonight. Took an early chip lead that got whittled away until I…

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,…

Day 430 of 365 More. Steph and I spent the evening playing Scrabble with Marlo. While We were doing it, I decided to take a picture of myself from the board’s position. By the time I got around to snapping the shot, it was all but clear that Steph would be winning the game. Ah…

Day 421 of 365 More. The new attitude is in full effect. One of the reasons I’m always depressed all the time, is that not only do I have to work so much, when I’m not working I find myself boring. I just don’t get to get out cut loose and have fun. Well, tonight…

Day 417 of 365 More. Life sucks sometimes. In fact, life sucks most of the time. I don’t know why that is. But I wish it would stop. Sometimes it does stop. For like ten seconds, the world melts completely away, and everything is ok. Then it goes back to sucking. I wish ten seconds…

Day 414 of 365 More. How to waste a perfectly good evening. The plan for the day was pretty simple. Help a friend move. Take a couple promo shots of Shiima. Then Steph and I were going to go out with a friend to a bar for Karaoke. I was looking forward to a good…

Day 406 of 365 More. First of all, I’d like to thank everyone who has supported me the last couple days in the whole banning incident. It was a rough week, only my second at work, and I’m still getting used to the hours and the work, so I’ve been tired and exhausted every day…

Day 405 of 365 More. Well, I’m back. I had a big huge diatribe set for today, but I’m exhausted and just don’t have it in me right now. I’ll do my best, but I’m beat. Obviously, I did get them to unlock my account last night. It took quite a while, and honestly Flickr…

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 396 of 365 More. Well, I survived the first day, but I’m exhausted. And I really didn’t do much "work" per se. Just a lot of set-up stuff. But hopefully I’ll get used to it all soon. The office is nice, as are all the people I work with, and I’m sure I’ll feel…
