Happy New Year

This year was challenging and rough at times. That being said, the best thing you can do is unplug to take a step back from it all, look at it from a different perspective, and continue healing, recharging and reevaluating where the journey of life is taking you.

I’ve always been on a personal quest to become a better version of myself each year and often reflect on this quote often from David Bowie “Aging is an extraordinary process where you become the person you always should have been.”

The one thing that I love about aging is how you keep sifting through the muck of life like a miner panning for gold. Things wash away like false beliefs which you once believed to be 100% true, while other things reveal themselves like remembering who you were before the world taught you how to be. These are the subjects I’d like to talk about in a podcast Ive been wanting to bring to life for several years now. I hope to finally take the leap and make it happen this coming year.

On the art side of things, I didn’t accomplish as much art making this years as I had planned or would have liked, but on the plus side, I started the next installment of my indie comic series Twisted Fate and finished about 75% of it and looking forward to publishing it in early 2026.

 

To all my mentors, peers, fans, friends, and family, I am beyond grateful for your support and love on this journey of life. The insight and imprint you leave on my life helps me in so many unique ways to always keep moving onward and upwards.

Lastly, I hope you all have an amazing year of insight, health, growth, success and prosperity in all areas of your life as you continue to grow and expand into the best version of yourself! YOU GUYS ARE ALL AMAZING!!

I love you all!!!

Merry Christmas

On the twelfth day of Christmas

Klaus the barbarian gave to me

Twelve frost giants attacking

Eleven hell hounds chasing

Ten orcs stalking

Nine maidens dancing

Eight warriors drinking

Seven sirens singing

Six zombies bitting

Five trolls smashing

Four banshee wailing

Three hobgoblins haunting 

Two treasure chests

And Krampus tied to my Christmas tree

However you’re celebrating, I hope you have an amazing time with your loved ones!! 

The Card that started the Annual Tradition

One of my favorite things to create each year is my Christmas card. I started giving them out to clients as a thank you. From there it bloomed to also giving them out to friends and family as well. This is the card that started off the annual tradition.

Here’s a look at a new experiment piece with the New Apps

The new apps I am now using to replace the Creative Cloud are Clip Studio and Affinity Suite. The benefit with them is they are both a pay once and you own them. The Affinity Suite also comes with an iPad version. Here’s a look at the next in this series of female characters this time featuring Maleficent. 

 

Continuing the Experimenting with New Apps

So, I decided to continue experimenting with what I’ve been learning with Clip Studio and Affinity Suite. Here’s a look at the next in this series of female characters and this one is inspired by The Lost Boys.
