I'm still planning to get a piece in the show by Saturday--- and I'm not going to stay up all nite doing this like the last God of War show, cause I don't want to have to redo most of it the next morning, (lol) so hopefully I can wake up early tomorrow morning and finish this piece before going to work!  Hope to see you at the show:]

NUCLEUS GALLERY (God of War) SHOW

Hey guys, I apologize for not responding to anyone or posting anything in a while.  I haven't had internet connection for the past month and a half, so it's been difficult keeping up-to-date on my blog.  I finally got caught up with the 21st century and got internet at home!  I kinda miss tranquil prehistoric days, but I think I could get used to this internet-at-home thing.  I should be keeping my blog a bit  more updated now... i hope.

Here are some images I did for the God of War show at Nucleus.  It was a pretty crazy project, since I was in the middle of messy moving situation, I didn't get started on the images until a couple days before the due date---I didn't get to sleep much during the time.  Have you ever worked 'til the weee hours of the morning, rather pleased with yourself on your progress, only to wake up discovering that someone had vandelized your beautiful artwork--- only to realize a moment later that you did it yourself while in a state of narcosis due to sleep deprivation?  hehe, that happened--- should have just gone to sleep...

Not sure if you got to check out the show, but I heard it was rediculous!  The line went down the street around the corner at some point.  Wish I could have made it---I had a previous engagement in Japan--- definitely not compainin' though-- it was an amazing trip--- took lots of pics, ate a ton and a half of sushi and sashimi, had my first experience with sumo, and lost my wallet---pretty full experience:]  I'll post some pics as soon as I organize them a bit.

These images were based after first and second Kings in the old testament.  I hope to do a graphic novel on it at some point--some great characters and events to illustrate on that era.  I thought the gallery show would be a perfect time to start getting my feet wet on the subject matter---not sure of style or anything yet.   Hope you enjoy them!
