Today at work, I drew in the catalogues.
I altered the covers of five product catalogues at work, hand-tinting the images with highlighters then signing and dating my work.

I like that.

Okay, they kissed. Moving on.
I like Adam Lambert’s new album. And I genuinely wish him success! Somebody’s gotta push boundaries. Deal with it. Better yet, grow a pair and have fun with the rest of the I-like-progress crowd.

I'M MOVING TO NEWYORKNEWYORK
This is exciting and awful all at the same time.. well, awful because Seattle is a beautiful city that should’ve proven more inspiring and should’ve caused me to put more time and effort (I guess) into finding a career here. Or something. But when times get tough, the arts tend to build impenetrable bastions in their self-ascribed capitals. Thus was New York for set design, theater in...
