Color theory...

The quarter is coming to an end here tomorrow. I thought I would share my final for my color theory class as I am very proud of the work I did and want the world to see!


It's acrylic on canvas and the size is 16"x 20"... the colors are a little darker than should be but what do you expect from a cameraphone?
If anyone sees this please let me know what you think!

Well its been about 9 months...

So this blog kinda fell off of the radar for me for quite some time now. I would like to get back into it as I feel it will be a vital part of my upcoming career in web and graphic design. I also believe that it will beneficial in getting thoughts and feelings out there.

Cheers!

Woo Hoo!!

I finally got some AC in the apartment!! Now maybe I will be able to sleep better. I imagine that its going to take a day or so for the heat to leave but when it does I will be sittin pretty!

Almost the 4th!

And I don't have any fireworks this year! Oh well maybe I will just head out to somewhere that somebody else does.

Finally got the 3/4 ton rear axle in!

Matty came over today and we were able to get the new axle in the rear of my truck!! The rear was a lot easier than I was expecting. Granted its a fairly temporary setup until I can make it to pull-a-part to get a more permanent setup.

Any way you look at it, this is one more huge step towards getting the entire project wrapped up!

First blood Sacrifice for the sister's new place!

They finally get a sunny day to work on finalizing the yurt this last Thursday. After I got off work I went over to help out. When I got there they had already put the lattice up around the outside and were pretty much ready to get the rafters going up. The center ring was in the center of the yurt and we started putting the rafters in. The first 3 went up fairly easily and now the center ring can support itself. We started filling in around the 3 that were already in. I discovered that if you take one of the loose rafters and push up on the center ring its much easier for someone else to put in the rafters. I also discovered that if a hinged 2 x 4 hits you on the head from appx. 10 feet in the air it leaves a pretty nasty cut! One other thing that I discovered was that head wounds bleed... ALOT!!! By the time that the 2 x 4 made it to the ground I'm positive that my entire face was covered in blood.

The worst part about the whole thing is that my sister had just stopped filming! I ruined a perfectly good t-shirt in sacrifice of keeping my blood off of their floors! I succeeded, and I think that the yurt knew it. As I was in the house getting cleaned up another rafter fell to the ground and busted open a sharpie spilling its blood all over the rug that was under it.

New Computer!!!

I got a new computer today... YAY! I went to Best Buy looking for a new monitor since mine went TU and ended up walking out with a new computer! So instead of paying 200 or so for a new monitor and paying another 100 or so for the upgraded vid card and running all of this on an antique. I spent the 600 for a brand new monitor nice PC and it came with an all in one printer!
