I've been thinking and I thought it was time to do a sincere "thank you!" to all the Watchers and to everyone who has stopped by for a quick visit. I am very grateful for all the comments and critiques, every little bit helps me see the mistakes I make and help so i don't make the same mistake twice and helps me become a better artist. Thank you all for enjoying my art also. It is something I, to be perfectly honest about, have been scare to show others and outside a limited few that I work with or am friends with, no one has ever seen. It took until last year for both my foreman and a fellow worker to push me to go back to school and to be proud of my work. I slowly grew in confidence and by chance ran into Ryan Stegman at a local comic shop where he was signing the Hercules book he just drew. Ryan is one of the nicest artist I have ever met and he was kind enough to both critique my work and turn me to this site. So to steal a line from my son that I feel sums up my art and how I feel about everything (this is his reaction to being placed as a lineman and not at one of the so called "skilled" positions in his football team) "I don't care if I never get the ball, I just want to play the game." Sometimes it is amazing how insightful a eleven year old can be. But, that is exactly how I feel right now, I would love to get the ball but if I never do, I'm alright with playing the game and having at least a few enjoy the time with me. So Thank You! You are always welcome back to play the game with me.

I know I've ranted a bit but I also wanted to plug a little bit about how excited I am about this secret poster I'm currently doing, I'm getting ready for Halloween already so keep an eye out for it.
