Do you ever have a million thoughts running through your head, simultaneously? Good, bad, ridiculous, valid, fantasies and realities? A little bit of everything all at once. I feel like that all the time. Sometimes I have a hard time quieting my head so I can focus on what I’m actually suppose to be doing….

Rockets Red Glare
Happy Independence Day U.S. of A.! No one wants to sit at the computer and read blogs on the Fourth of July so I figured I would share a photo journal of all my past fireworks and flag photography. Enjoy your barbecues, have fun with your family, oooh and aaah at the fireworks, and remember…

Do It in the Dark!
Yep…I did it in the dark. I drew in my sketchbook with no lights on and it was crazy! (get your mind out of the gutter, perverts :P) I have a magical sketchbook entitled “Drawing is Magic” by John Hendrix. It is kind of like a guide book for artists. I have been trying to rediscover myself…
