I‘m honored to have a few of my character paintings in 3D Total’s new art book set “Prime”. …
I‘ve been in talks with a number of different game companies over the last three months about positions ranging from art director, 3D environment artist, concept artist, texture artist etc. …
A few months ago, while on lunch break, I was walking to a small park to eat lunch….
Iwant to keep my skills sharp in the mediums I have a bad habit of neglecting. So here are a handful of sketches done with video, sculpture, writing, music etc. It’s fun to shake things up every now and again. …
Bruce had me up to three miles a day, really at a good pace. We’d run the three miles in twenty-one or twenty-two minutes. Just under eight minutes a mile [Note: when running on his own in 1968, Lee would get his time down to six-and-a-half minutes per mile]….
I was on BART the other day (name of the bay area subway system), when I saw a young woman who looked familiar sitting across from me. I suspected I was wrong and didn’t give it another thought- Well maybe one or two more, about her attractive nerdyness….
I‘ve developed a reputation at school for being a demanding teacher who expects too much and grades too harshly. I had a particularly lazy class a couple semesters back, and gave them a good tongue lashing via email….
A little while back I made a resolution to contact my favorite artists and give thanks. I started with this letter to Heather Phares….
I had a weird dream and shared it with my friend Jaimie.

This summer I’m teaching 8-19 year olds how to draw anime and manga. The class is at a community college in Walnut creek….
Finally the spring harvests of Mainland China and Taiwanese teas have made it state side. I had my first cup of 2010 Lishan Spring after months of waiting. It felt like coming home. Now I’m all stocked up and will hopefully make it to next spring….
I finally got my record player up and running. After putting so much effort in pairing the right amp, monitor speakers, needle, it’s such a joy to hear my music come out and fill the room. Some of the records I’ve been playing on it are albums I have on CD or digital, and it’s really interesting to hear the difference on the records.

My friend Bob (female) was throwing her birthday party Tuesday.
And decided to make it a roast. She rented out a back room in a bar
and invited all her friends to come prepared to burn her with some sassy material….
This Tuesday found me stalking the halls of a Toys R Us. I thought it was blasphemous to my childhood that I should now live right near a Toys R Us (Which would have been something I would have only dared dream as a child) and that I’ve strayed so far from my roots, that I don’t even care.
