new commission... and a question.

here's the latest commission. again, both in greyscale and bitmap. i really can't decide which i like better.




soooooo... one look at the sidebar will show that i really need an update of how this blog archives things (AND a little twitter window, AND a little followers window...) all of which i believe are readily available if i update to the new blogger. my problem is that every time i've started the process of updating, i get a little message that more or less says: " you may lose some content".... and there's the rub. i don't care if i lose the links in the sidebar (they can be replaced easily enough), but i do not want to lose any past posts.

has anyone out there updated their blogger blogs from the beta version? what/how much did you lose? did you lose anything? did you and blogger rent a cabin in the woods and spoon all weekend? did it touch you in an uncomfortable place? did it leave you in a puddle of tears and regret? did you have to sue it for custody of your pomeranian: admiral fluffikins mcwhiskerface? why hasn't it called? can't it see you love it? roughly? etc...

thanks for your help/experience in the comments...

two new commissions...

here are the latest two commissions:

and here's how that last one looks when i play with my new (11x17 1200 dpi) scanner...


also, thank you to the astoundingly talented mr. guy davis for the shout out over at his marquis blog, where he includes a little blast from my past. (although the link he includes is to my portfolio, but i'm not picky...) EDIT (they're both there now. apparently i'm a little picky...)

when you're not reading and buying MYSTERIUS (available feb.9th) you should really be reading and buying something by guy...

big monkey and 11 o'clock...

i sat in with the 11 o'clock guys on wednesday night. it was a lot of fun. i'm sorry i probably should have posted about it on thursday, but i got a bit distracted by sickness and work...

here's a picture of a big monkey from my new advertising portfolio. colours by keith garletts...

happy halloween...

you know, the only really frightening thing for me about this drawing is that it turns out i'm not nearly as a attractive a person as i thought i was...

(and, yes, i am fishing for compliments...)

CBC asterix interview...

i got a call yesterday from the cbc to see if i could come in that afternoon and drop some asterix on them. so, after rousing myself from my sick bed and smearing purel on my every exposed surface, i did just that...

you can find it here.



(and i didn't swear or nuthin'...)
