Making it happen!

I came across this guys blog a little while ago, and I really enjoy what he has to say for the most part. This guy has a great way with words, though most of it was through his Grandfather. It's a nice read anyways.

Making it in life

Retro drawing

This thread over at the CartoonRetro forum has a great discussion about Christoper Hart's new book coming out which looks atrocious compared to the "Real retro artists". Like it's stated in the forum, "Why go to that book looking to draw retro, why not just go to the actual source"

Like subscribing to Cartoon Retro! Which I plan on doing soon. Sooooo much great stuff over there. Plus some of the stuff Shane is planning on adding seems like it will be pretty valuable.

Emerald City Comic Con

Over the weekend I went to the Emerald City Comic Con, which was awesome. Really inspired me to want to draw for sure. My son had come out with me, and he seemed to have had a really good time. He was able to get some really great sketches from some really good guys. Ill have to scan them in so peeps can see them. We were able to get sketches from Ovi Nedelcu, Steve Lieber, Michel Gagne, and Kasey Quevedo. Each has a website showcasing their art.

Ovi Nedelcu's site is http://www.ovinedelcu.com/
Steve Lieber's site is http://www.unrewarding.com/steve/
Michel Gagne's site is http://www.gagneint.com/
Kasey's site is http://www.kcqillustrations.net/

Ill try and post the drawings that we got real soon.

I also watched the movie Ray with Jamie Foxx this weekend. Wow, what an amazing movie that was. I think I was more amazed at what Jamie was able to accomplish in the role of Ray Charles. I really hope he wins the Oscar. He deserved it very much so. He's a pretty dang talented piano player himself. He went to school on a piano playing scholarship. Really cool.
