Obama's America 2016

I just came back from seeing Dinesh D'Souza's "Obama's America 2016".

(http://2016themovie.com/)

Oboe Jones

   I don't know if any of you have heard of this, but there was a strip called Oboe Jones created by Kevin Frank, which ran in the late, great Cornerstone magazine from 1985 to 1998.

   I discovered it in the early 90's. It was my first introduction t

Great talk by Bobby Chiu

   I would highly recommend everyone interested in illustration, and/or a career in illustration take 10 minutes of their life out and watch this vid.

   It's a a bit of a lecture by illustrator Bobby Chiu. In it you watch him paint a pretty amazing i

The Jesus Juke

   I just read this on John Acuff's "Stuff Christians Like". 

   I laughed out loud because I can ssooo relate. So, I decided to share.

   Below is both the link, and the article in it's entirety.

HAPPY 4th OF JULY, EVERYONE!

More strips. Thoughts?

So, I've been plugging away on this strip of mine.

Here are another two for your consideration.

Any thoughts? 

These are the last two I will post. I'm moving into full, secretive work mode. But your thoughts and comments are very valuable to me,

Someone is gay at DC.

"DC Comics To Switch The Sexual Orientation Of An Established Character"

Who could it be?

I'm back on track.

Okay... so here's the history...

Years ago (almost 20, in fact) I came up with this idea for a strip that would allow me to express my thoughts in a quick, at-a-glance type of way. That strip idea has resurfaced over the years, but only just recently

Dangerous ground.

I don't know if you heard this, but boxing legend Manny Pacquiao has been banned from an L.A. mall known as "The Grove" for making very clear comments that marriage ought to be as the bible says, between one man and one woman.

Cambodia.

Hey all,

I just came back this Friday (4/20) from a 2 week mission trip to Cambodia, and I wanted to just take a moment to share a bit of what the Lord is doing out there with you guys.

First, let me say that before I went I had NO idea what to expect.

The Avengers

   Okay, I've kind of written off all these super-hero movies.

   I was totally underwhelmed by both "Iron Man" flicks.

   I hated "Captain America".

   "X-Men: First Class" was horrendous. 

   Because of this I never saw "Thor", and have no desire to.

Matisyahu.

   My wife and I just came from a Matisyahu concert in Tarrytown, NY.

   It was fantastic! A true artist!

Personal finance.

   Well, I guess this discussion goes here...

   There is a Christian financial counselor named Dave Ramsey who has a 12 week course called "Financial Peace University" (FPU), and if you have never heard of him or it you should seriously look into it.

For the politically conservative...

   Read this and found it very interesting.

Strip Update: Comments? Opinions?

Hey all,

   So, I've been working on getting this weekly strip up and running, but I have hit a few walls.

   (Again, the strip was originally meant to be a kind of diary for my eyes only, but I've since decided to let other folks into my head.)

Fables: Covers by James Jean

   I just treated myself to a book- "Fables: Covers by James Jean".

   I missed the first printing run, and was highly bummed. A second run has apparently shipped, and I snagged a copy.

   $50 is a bit pricey, but Jeans work is staggering. Pick one up

PhotoShop Tip: Pulling the paper from the drawing.

Hey all, 

This is a little trick I like do in PhotoShop. I hope it helps someone. ...I love the quality and look of my pencil drawings better than my inks, but I was never able to manipulate the pencil line once it was inked the way you could with a

Iron.

Completely beautiful. Enjoy.
