    ~+{Sketchartist}+~'s Interests
GeneralI love art. I love drawing & painting. A lot of my work can be seen here on my page if you're interested. I am very much a geek... I love movies, television, and video games. I love anything with a captivating story. I'm partial to things of a 'fantasy' nature. (I think that's pretty apparent in my artwork, lol.) I love the outdoors. I love hiking, biking, and camping. I have lived in Hawaii for over 5 months now. I absolutely love it here. I'm finishing up work, painting backgrounds for a new animated series premiering on the Cartoon Network in 2010 called Guardians of the Power Masks. Check it out next year! :)

I was contemplating emailing you the books I'm working on, but I think it would be so much better to work on them in person :)

Next time I'm around (or YOU are!) we'll have to get on it.

wow really? lame. lol...

Like an hour after I took the costume photo I got mad sick (my stomach had been bothering me). I went out for maybe an hour or two in costume, but ended up going back home b/c I felt like butt. No alcohol involved either!

Thanks!! It is custom to some extent. I had a nurse costume and distressed it. I made the mask myself, and did the makeup and stuff. It was fun.

Did you have halloween plans?

Now that you're back at home... are you closer to your niece Anna?  She's adorable and I can imagine would love it if her Uncle went trick or treating with her.  Pics!  Pics! Pics!  lol

I understand, Im sure those jobs will still be there. I hope to meet up with you again. I stopped playing Wow when I got to this island but will start up again when I get my own place. I was on lightinghoof, Have a lvl 80 DK, Lock, and druid on the ally side on that server. Have also a lvl 70 pally on the horde side. Hey also contact John. That may be a prosperous relationship for the both of you.

I remember that, you really didn't look all that good after the show, but it was still an awesome show.  I'll be in town 18 ..hrough 3 Jan... after that I won't be back until 5 March but I'll have finished training in AIT by then and will be back for a bit before I have to come back out here... or hit the sands of Afghanistan.  However, you are right on the money with Florida and metal shows, Arizona gets nothing good from what I can tell.
