Recently I felt very unlucky. A couple of years ago I made an awful mistake of choosing the wrong classes for me because I thought I wanted to be a Doctor, and not the cool kind. I chose Physics, which I hated so much I stopped learning it this year, and Science technology class which I took for Biomedicne..Don't even ask how I hate every second of working on the project. But I wouldn't suffer as much if I didn't understand what I want to do with my life.

I want to be an…

Hi everyone!

Hopefully this doesn't come off as horrible self advertisement, but I'm trying to get my blog out in the world, it's something I've realized that I have to work at! Internet pages don't share themselves, you need the people behind the screen. And hey, maybe I'll post on here too, I didn't realize anyone could do it! :)

The reason why I wanted to post a link here was because I think the community that Hank and John has built is wonderful. In fact, if…

I attended a high school in Cedar Rapids Iowa called John F. Kennedy High School. Right now, there are terrible things being put in to play at my Alma Matter. The principal, one Dr. W, is trying to take the Industrial Technology Education rooms, and turn them into a "strength training" facility for the athletic department. This facility is only described as "not including weight training equipment." Now, this school already has a weight room and a great number of athletic facilities,…

Yesterday I posted a blog post (which you can read here) explaining an idea I've had for a while. Whilst typing out my idea I realized how amazing this idea would be as a collaborative effort.

Basically I have a lot of poems, short stories, unfinished works, random ramblings and odd doodles and collages lying around. So I…

It's a painting I did a while ago of a TARDIS. believe me, it looks way better in real like. My scanner is just not big enough to fit it.…

An appeal to all Nerdfighters! I'm hoping to set up something called "Project Inspire", wherein artists, musicians and writers come together to collaborate and inspire one another to take flight (metaphorically, most likely, but if you do your best work in aeroplanes or hot-air-balloons, that works too). The project has three aims:

1. Finish a 'work of art' (this can be a painting, a novel, a song, a sculpture made of pizza...anything)

2. Do something to inspire someone else to…

This isn't a black-and-white photograph — it's an incredibly detailed pencil drawing titled "Friend Cat" by Paul Lung (deviantArt).

this picture is:…

深堀隆介 (Ryusuke Fukahori) paints goldfish into resin, adding one thin layer at a time until three-dimensional fish are encased in water-like resin. (video)

This is what every musician or film maker who thinks they are making art is really saying … honest :)  LOVE YOU, if this made you laugh, consider sharing it with your friends.

One day of work to get this far.

I kind of like it the way it is, but I will sit on it for a minute, to see how it feels.

Maybe work on others for now.

This is my latest nerdy project that I'm working on. Its a deck of custom playing cards featuring feminist musicians spanning many generations and genres. The cards are being illustrated by 14 different artists. I tried to embed a video of the project with samples of the artists' work but it wouldn't work. You can view it here: www.feministcards.com

Read details on these guys over at my…

I'm an artist and a question I get a lot is "How do you do it?".

I can't tell people how to make art, but I can share my process. So, I made a FLOW CHART of AWESOME,

to give people an idea of what it takes, from the initial idea to the finished painting. Not every idea works, but

researching, making concept art, playing with color theories, talking about your idea with friends all help to make your

art a reality! I hope this is informitive, and if you…

     So, I'm done my art homework, and I have nothing to do! I had to do an assignment about the Die Brücke art movement, and an art appreciation of Emil Nolde's "Masks Still Life" If anybody has any interesting facts or opinions about either, let me know, because I've got four more days of work to fill, with nothing to add...
