I got a write up in The Buzz (for those of you that don’t know, it’s a local free publication) this week for showing my work at the Taste of Champaign this past weekend:

New Artists
Seeing artists like Rebecca Reid of Art Beco and Craig Downen of Steel Canvas really taking charge and trying to make a living at what they do was beyond cool. These artists took a gamble by putting themselves out there, and I think it paid off.

Well, Mister Matthew Strong, author of said art review column… it DID pay off. Thanks, man!

So, I’ve been really busy with getting things ready for the Taste that I’ve really let this site slack. I will update with more pictures of my pieces after this weekend. Stay tuned. Greatness will ensue!

I completed this one a long time ago, I’m going to attempt to recreated it at least once for the sale.

This guy is nearly complete and looking way better than before. I still have a few issues to work on… but he’s about 95% done. Yay!
