FRANK in COLOR!

so, i finally finished putting some color on another doodle i did at work a year ago... man, i was productive when i was working - these days i have to 'try' to draw rather than use it as an escape mechanism. anywho, here it be:

"Frank!"

funny timing with this one, too - while trying to get a 'hot/humid' tone to the picture, i experienced 'heat stroke' for the first time yesterday. i went running with some overcast and a breeze, about 3 and a half or 4 miles out, it all disappeared and the sun decided to start cooking me alive, and i knew it was time to head back. i hadn't had anything to eat/drink either since it was the first thing i did that day. wooooooow.... i was out for the rest of the day with a sick stomach and a nasty headache/small fever. funny thing is it RAINED about 30 min. after i got back.. isn't Utah weather GREAT!!!! seriously though, i like it.



oh, i started putting some of my sketchbook stuff on my computer from this year - here's a page from when i watched "minority report" again for the second time ever. first time was when it came out in.... 2002!? been a while:

"Minority Report"

finally, i'm starting to use my sketchbooks the right way again. anytime i draw, ANYtime - i always go for a finished product... but i'm getting away from that in a good way finally. you shall see.

frank work doodle

just finished up another doodle i'd started at work - this is frank, my co-worker/friend/person, doing a reverse-double dragon-esque spin kick


again, really the only satisfaction i get from working is the idle time to do stuff like this... and the part where they give me money is always good. always.

so, funny thing - i actually had a dream that i was addicted to cigarettes last night. in reality i've never smoked anything in my life. but in this dream, the muscle movement to bring the cigarette to my mouth and actually smoke it was so habitual that it was border line involuntary, and i just sorta watched it happen. weird. i felt like the dumbest idiot, but it wouldn't stop. woke up, had a good laugh.... but it's funny in a weird... sorta way, too. i'm sure there's a hidden meaning in there somewhere... but yeah. just say "no" to smoking.
