well we just got back from PUNK ROCK BOWLING in Las Vegas NV.
For those that do not know we go once a year and drink and bowl for about a week.

Here is the official website

This year had 3 teams. The JV team missed the playoffs and the Freshmen team made the B-league playoffs. The Varsity team of Douglas , Chuck, Josh and Braden came in 24th and lost in the first round of the playoffs to the eventual champions! Not too bad. While at Vegas i did Bowl my all time high of 228! ...

I have posted a LOT of photos up on my .mac page so go check them out and enjoy!

Last night i started on Painting #26. I bought a bunch of red paint and have gone to work.

Red stars blanket the the sky which has turned purple and i stand here wondering. How did paint become my bitch.

This is a very very very early painting. Maybe my 2nd or 3rd. For those that do not know. Paint is my bitch came about when i came home drunk one night and was playing around with the Paint program on my 1997 Compaq computer. My roommate came home and asked. Hey what are you doing. I said... Making Paint my bitch. So it stuck. So a lot of my early paintings are reinterpretations of those early Paint programs on the computer. This is one of those. I am going to re do this one very soon.

So this is the new year...

Trying out some new layouts as i think the black was just a tad too dark. So let me know what you think. Has anyone else heard how good this new Lupe Fiasco record is?! It is just fantastic! 

Go go Gadget Flow has to be my favorite song right now. Go get the record today! 

I really hope i can keep on this blog and post more things at least as some sort of record for the year. I thought about creating a new blog and or just posting things on Myspace but really when it comes down to it there are just too many sites where i could do something and adding one more would be little to no help at all.   Well that is all for now I am going to go add some links to the side over there!

This is my first series of paintings that go together.

as always i am not sure if they are done but they are close for sure.

there is a general color theme that ties them together as well as the common meaning of the words.

hope you enjoy.
