Update + Event Info

I don't have much time to write today so I'm going to write this in English first.

Anyway, today's updates serves two purposes.

The first is to update everyone on what I've been up to the past few weeks, i.e. a
photo dump.

The second is to make note of an event that I will taking part in this weekend.

Alright, on with the photos.

First, after I graduated, I had a small exhibition with my graduating class. I was able to get my first Illustration job through that, which was nice.



Then, I went to Miami with my girlfriend around the weekend of my birthday. It was a pretty short vacation, because I started my new part time job the following Tuesday. Regardless, it was fun. I was most happy to see that my girlfriend had a good time and that my mom liked her.

While down there we went to Key West and took a sunset cruise and ate excellent sea food and key lime pie.









After that, I had a small little get together for my birthday. My girlfriend got to see my house and see some of my friends.





Did I mention that while I was down there, through a mistake on the part of the rental car company, I got to drive a mustang around for the price of a sedan. Yup.



When that was over, I took my girlfriend to the airport because she had to leave earlier than I did. Finally, for my last day, I celebrated the engagement of two of my Miami friends and got to finally do my own "Last Supper" birthday picture.



The second version is the "bizarro" version. Everyone is supposed to act like me, except me.



Sice then, I've been in New York working part time and trying to get my Illustration career started. So far not much has happened, but I did get one Illustration published...sorta. There was a mixup and the wrong version of my piece was published, but i was told by the client that for their online magazine, they will fix the error. I'll update the blog when that happens, but until then I'm putting what would've have been in print here and on my website.



I'm running out of time, so I'll edit later. But here are some things I've worked on/sketched lately.













Finally, I would like to make mention of an event that I will be performing at this coming Saturday. I'll be doing live painting for the Multihop event at Galapagos Art Space. The headliner for this event is Scratch of the Roots, and in addition to this there are many other things going on, body art, nail art, a fashion show, etc.

Here are the details...

Also, anyone on my guest list gets in for $8, so please RSVP with you name if you will be coming.

Anyway, I could use your support! If you do come, it really does mean a lot to me.

To end, I have some extra pics on my flickr if you would like to see.

enjoy.

さあ、今日の日記は前二つの日記とは違う。
最近やった事について詳しくはあまり書いてなかった。
だから今日の日記は二つの事について書こうと思う。

一つ目は最近やった事をみんなに知らせたい。
二つ目は僕の最新イベントについて詳細を載せたい

じゃ、はじめましょう。

卒業した後で同級生と一緒にエキシビションをやった。意外にいろいろな人が集まってくれて驚いてしまった。そのときになんとはじめての仕事の依頼を受けた。うれしかった。

それから誕生日の週末の時に彼女と一緒にマイアミに旅行した。次の火曜日に新しいのパートタイムが始まる予定だから旅行はちょっと短かかった。でも楽しかった。彼女はとても楽しんでくれたし母が彼女を好きだと言ってくれたのでうれしかった。

マイアミにいる時にキーウェストという島に行った。サンセットクルーズに乗ったり美味しいシーフードとキーライムパイを食べた。

パイはすごくおいしかった。おすすめ。

翌日、小さな誕生日パーティをした。彼女が僕のうちにきて友達に会ったからよかった。

ところでマイアミいた時にレンタカー会社の手違いでセダンを借りる値段でマスタングを借りれた。楽勝!

今はパートタイムやってそれ以外の時間は自分のアート活動をしている。今のところそんなに大きい仕事はないけど一つ雑誌のイラストレーションの仕事をやった。

やったけど依頼人の手違いで僕のイラストは間違って出版されてしまった。

とてもがっかりした。

じゃ、二つ目はイベントだ。

今週末はじめてのライブパインティングをする!
