Hey everyone just wanted to give a general update as to what is going on right now. Currently I am going through one of the worst artist blocks I have ever been through. It has been going on for easily the last three weeks with no sign of slowing down.
I can’t draw anything right now. Hell I couldn’t even draw a bath if I had to. Oh God! Now even my witty and wry sense of humor is starting to suffer! Who the hell still says “draw a bath” anyway? Man that was a bad joke.
Sorry where was I?
Oh yeah life sucks – can’t draw.
Yeah so life has just be sucking a big donkey dick lately (graphic enough for you?). Such as I found out that my Mom has a tumor, which they are still awaiting the results, and a woman I knew as a child, recently died of a massive heart attack, at the age of 50!
I also had a screw up on my PC and lost the emails of a few clients. But I’m in the process of retrieving that information but needless to say it’s a pain.
Oh and to top it all off I saw The Ruins last night on Showtime. Killer vines? Seriously killer vines?
But there is some good news to come out of all of this. First off those of you who I owe sketches I will be doing those soon because this artist block can’t last forever. Can it?
But I haven’t been totally useless during this down time. I have been getting my movie blog (www.hollywoodjerk.com) off the ground. The movie site has been pretty fun so far and has served as a way to get my mind off of everything. For those of you who remember what my website blog (www.headstatic.com/whitenoise) was like before I dedicated it solely to my artwork, you will find hollywoodjerk to be pretty much the same thing. I talk about important upcoming movie news, like Iron Man 2 and ScarJo. I encourage everyone to check it out and let me know what you think.
Again guys I really want to say sorry for the lack of updates to the site and blog. I will be hopefully getting back into the groove of things soon. I really mean that too because I have free sketches to send out to along with a tutorial that I have been asked to do for a website.
Hey if anyone has any ideas for getting out of a slump just let me know. Thanks.
Sorry everyone it’s been a crazy last couple weeks. Things will be back to “normal” soon.
I just wanted to let everyone know that if the site has been acting a little buggy lately that is because I have been working on a few modifications, new widgets, and optimizations. Whoa, it actually sounded like I knew what the hell I was talking about.
Anyway I do have some news I would like to share with you guys. So let’s just get to that shall we?
First up I will be doing a tutorial for asingularcreation.com this weekend. You may should remember that I was recently featured on their website and now they have asked me to do a tutorial for their site. Looks like someone has been drinking the Kool-Aid I sent.
I will also be starting on and probably completing all the free sketches I owe people. How did these people get a free sketch you ask? Simple, they participated and won the contests that I run from time to time, such as Dan, who won the “Name my Sketchbook” contest. Dan came up the clever and snappy title of Hot Copic for my ashcan sketchbook at the Heroes Comic Convention this year. As a result Dan not only received a free copy of my sketchbook but also a sketch of his choosing. Pretty nifty right?
So be sure to subscribe to my blog that way the next time I run a contest (which will be soon) you will be sure to know about it. Until nest time I will see you on the other side. Whatever that means.

I know several of you out there wondering what happened to me. Did a crazed Michael Jackson fan take him out? Did Scarlett Johansson finally get to have her way with him? Or maybe just maybe he decided to solve the economic crisis in the U.S.
Although all of those are valid theories (especially the second one) they are simply not true. Well almost. I did have someone tell me I was “being mean” because of my comments about the demise of Michael Jackson. Also I’m pretty sure ScarJo wants to rape me and I bought an Iphone for my lovely wife, so that should help jumpstart the economy right? I mean it was the $99 version of the phone so you know that should do the trick.
Anyway don’t mean to be rambling here just wanted to let everyone know I will be posting some new artwork soon and that I am still playing around with what Brian Stelfreeze taught me at the Heroes con and color theory as well as a few other tricks. So stay tuned because I will be sharing those soon. But please just don’t hold your breath this time. It’s really not healthy.
You know I debated for sometime (like a good 10 minutes) on whether or not I was going to comment on Michael Jackson’s death. I initially decided not to for the simple fact that I didn’t want to give a dancing pedophile freak any more attention. But I just can’t take it anymore. Seeing all these washed up has-beens and opportunist hacks talking to flash in the pan high school gossips like fucking Ryan Seacrest about how seeing Michael Jackson inspired them to greater heights makes me want to fucking puke. Oh golly I just saw a skinny white black man dance. I think I will cure cancer now.
Fuck you.
Oh and if it sounds like I’m angry, it’s because I am. If it sounds like I’m bitter. Uh…it’s because I am. How on earth this fucking weirdo pedophile that sang other people’s songs while he danced to other people’s music and inspired shit like N’SYNC considered to be some sort of a genius? Now that this skinny fuck is dead everyone is talking about how “he inspired me” or “was the greatest entertainer ever” and shouldn’t be judged on the last few years. Again I say fuck you. Using this logic Hitler was a pretty ok guy.
Oh no but Jason you don’t understand he had a hard childhood it wasn’t his fault. Really? Seriously that is the argument you’re going with? Ok first off fuck you you’re an idiot who believes whatever the talking picture box tells you. Second off there were fucking 6 year old Jewish girls starving in Nazi concentration camps, while watching their parents and friends die that when freed by ally forces were basically left to fend for themselves with no money or hope. But they still managed to grow up to be healthy happy adults, who if anything had a stronger character and were wise beyond their years.
But on the other hand we have poor little rich boy Michael Jackson. Whose daddy made him dance for 8+ hours a day and would sometimes hit him with a belt when he missed a step. Let’s see Nazi concentration camp and no money or an overbearing father and millions of dollars and fans? Hmmm…Wow I can see why he freaked out now.
Now I know that Jackson’s childhood wasn’t an ideal situation, but seriously what does it say about Jackson and his ability to cope? Daddy was mean to me so I’m going to “play” with kids and have surgeries to look like Diana Ross. What the fuck? And this is an idol? This is someone to look up to? Seriously?
It kills me how we deify fucking entertainers. I fully admit I have my personal heroes and people that inspire me and these people are not without their own flaws. But you know what? The people on my list aren’t liars who created fantasy worlds to live in with there delusions. The people on my list created things and had their own thoughts instead of being a professional puppet willing to sing and dance on cue.
All I’m saying is anytime you worship a puppet and look to a puppet for inspiration it really doesn’t say a whole hell of a lot about you.
Ok I’ll shut up now I just had to get that off of my chest. The blog will return to regularly scheduled programming later in the day. Oh and if you have any hateful comments or for me or if you want to jump onto my fuck Michael Jackson bandwagon just leave a comment. I would love to read it.
