I’m Go 2 Caw-wedge
Since I started graduate school in the fall 2008 semester I have attended three separate colleges for three separate programs. At the current moment I’m attending two separate colleges located on two different campuses in hopes of attaining my MFA in Media Arts Production and my New York State Teaching Certification in Media Communication. As […]
Perhaps Someday I Will Be This Confidently Quirky
At the current moment my brain doesn’t want to form cohesive thoughts so I will try to keep this short before my synapses fail to fire all together. Doug Tennapel is a fantastic artist who has managed to maintain a stable career creating absurd characters for a variety of different formats (Earthworm Jim for video […]
A Dash Of This And A Sprinkle Of That
I started reading a new essay about Postmodernism for my graduate class tonight around 11PM. I realized I was getting a bit fatigued, finishing the chapter I was on, and then turned on my computer with the sole intention of deleting spam from my email and posting the following “Waiting Room” pictures drawn on a […]
I Like It Raw
Cartooning has always interested me for multiple reasons. I think the primary intrigues lies in a person’s ability to create a world that I am incapable of visiting but will always want to. I would love to sit down and have lunch with Charlie Brown while Schroeder entertains us with his piano playing or travel […]
The Joys Of Childrens’ Toys
When artists reflect back on their first artistic creations they seem to say the same things: “When I was a child my favorite pastime was making insert art form here. I did it all of the time and all of my friends and relatives thought I might be a little obsessed.” Not all artists share […]
Sitting In The Waiting Room
A few months ago I completed my longest animation project yet (clocking in at just under five minutes). It took me months to research and once I was ready to put the final piece together I sat my animation stand for four full days creating movements with my pencils, erasers, and sheets of printer paper. […]
10/10/10 = X/X/X = XXX
When I was in sixth grade I made a vow to myself that I would live as healthy a lifestyle as I possibly could. I was going through some major health problems at that point in my life (which I’m sure will all be explained within my art at some point in my existence) and […]
One Of The Many Ways To Question Your Own Sexuality
This website, just as all of the art that I create, is intended to represent different quirks of my personality in hopes of helping me better understand my own identity. With the amount of research I have been doing for my graduate work I have not had much time to create new art to further […]
When Solving The “Upstate” Dilemma, Procrastination Is The Best Education
As I grew up around the Binghamton and Syracuse, NY regions I have always considered Upstate NY to be Binghamton and everything north of it. When I went to college I would find myself arguing with other students (who probably have higher paying jobs than I do) about what qualifies as Upstate NY. Kids that […]
Keeping The Tradition Alive
*Warning* If you have no idea what the term “Exquisite Corpse” means please click here to help better understand the information below. A few months ago I posted an exquisite corpse created by four separate individuals while drinking vegan milkshakes at Strong Hearts Cafe in Syracuse, NY. Ever since that artistic creation came into being, […]
