Been drawing a lot lately in my little black sketchbook. It was nice to get some kind words of encouragement from the Kubert School and pro artist Todd Nauck. Thanks guys.

I'm deeply sadden to hear that Joe Kubert has passed away today at the age of 85.

He was a legend in the industry and a personal hero. It has been of goal of mine to study at the Kubert School and I was just talking about him last night. He was an amazing artist who has inspired countless other artists. I will truly miss him.

The Comics Cube recently reported that someone broke in Brent Anderson's car at SDCC last weekend and stole a bunch of his art.

"The following was stolen from Brent Anderson in San Diego: 50 pages from Astro City Vs. 1-2 & Local Heroes; AC: Dark Age Bks. 1 (#s 1-4), 2 (#s 1-4) & 3 (#s 1-4) (50 pp.), Green Lantern:Legacy approx. 45 pp. between pp. 1-45; Green Lantern Silver Age Special (approx. 4 pp.); GL/Plastic Man team-up special (approx. 8 pp.); Rising Stars #s 15-24 (approx. 48 pp.). If any of these pages surface, email kneedeep@sonic.net." - fb.me/17yUvykTD

If you see any of his art, contact Brent.

"There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost. The world will not have it.

It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep yourself open and aware to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open.

No artist is pleased. [There is] no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others."

- Martha Graham

Listening to Slacker Radio (Rob Thomas), enjoying just drawing and looking at some of my favorite artist's work on DeviantArt.

In short, I'm at peace.
