Brush Life

So your just staring at your screen....and all of a sudden....you hear "I dedicate this to you punk motherfuckers" and you know once again....its on.  Yeah its that time of the week and that indeed was Tupac.  I wonder if you can find a better way to express appreciation in this day and age.  Well no I don't and yes I like contradictions in my writing if you just joined us...well if you just joined us, where the fuck have you been?  This shits been going on here alone for the last what...year?  Then on MySpace for like six or so...and in real life for around thirty four. 

Ok ok, maybe not that long since I didn't really start to realize just how powerful words and mean faces carry in this world until I was around fifteen but still you get the picture.  I imagine said picture would be kind of like if Picasso painted a picture of a concentration camp full of kittens that are on fire.  Maybe I should paint that but since I cant hold a paint brush to save my life...I suppose it's just one of those things you "should" do one day.  Also I am not devoid of artistic ability nor do my fingers not work....I just don't paint, it escaped me in all the years I worked with art don't ask me why....maybe the explanation to prevent the asking is because I was influenced by  comics and manga so heavily.  Before folks painted shit in them or used digital media to produce them.  That seems a nice direction for this blog though digital media such as the Wacom tablets...the Intous or Cintique or in my budget the bamboo.  Those things really are amazing if coupled with the proper software...I would say nothing can replace pen and paper...but in seeing those in action, its hard to stand by that argument.  I am very tempted even in my current state to pic up a cintique used off eBay, the cintique has the LCD screen if you are not familiar with it.  I should have said that eariler...but you know I'm about as good at description as a chimp using sign language after a pint and lobotomy.  Still, the the intous is a very nice none lcd tablet while the bamboo is small and very basic....a highly delute intous.  I have owned a bamboo and used it with manga studio ex 4, it was ok....i didn't learn it too well but I couldn't get over the Helen Keller hand it required.  I need to see what the fuck I'm drawing.....i know I could adapt and get around it...but why?  I want my shit all together, this is America shit.  Maybe Ill even paint something if I get that.....or maybe do that children's book?  Yeah I can see the preorders for that now....it would probably read like an overdraft notice with a gun on it.
This blog not sponsered by Wacom though it should be since I shamlessly plugged their asses.
