Carribean Creativity

I'm off to the Dominican Republic tomorrow and I'm excited to check out the beaches, people, wildlife, and the overall serenity of being in a new environment. The adventure begins and I'm looking for things that will hopefully inspire me to do more artwork.

I"m finally done with my Digital Design class which had it's challenging moments of learning the technology (fun QuarkExpress) and figuring out the best design to pull together a urban lifestyle mag (music, fashion, architecture spreads galore) in a eye blinks time. I've decided to take next semester off and really chill out and get my creative noggin to work for me...I'm testing out a few concepts and puling together my site soon so fingers crossed.

Dad's also training my brother's friend in Wing Chun again so I"m back on track...this is actually really good for me since I really want to live up to my name and master the martial art. June 1st is the date so I have to get my punches, kicks and training in line...fortunately I'm back to working on pretty consistently at work - (not to mention discovered this really cool way to shape obliques!). I get excited easily what can I say?

some things i wanna draw on vaca:

-local food
-turtles
-the peeps
-beach happenings
-....and more.

I did this in Hawaii once and tried to add some sand into my drawing of a sea turtle which worked with the salt water from the ocean....but unfortunately it tried up when I came back :(.

Lots of stuff going on....and u know what Chuck Yeager says...
"Just before you break the sound barrier is when the cockpit shakes the most."

I say, enduring what shakes you to the core, will eventually lead you to reach a higher level of consciousness.
