Mommy’s alright, Daddy’s alright, they just seem a little weird

According to my stuffed bunny Stuart, everyone reading my blog knows it’s the most bestest blog ever! It’s a sexy thrill ride, full of life-altering wisdom, intrigue, and motivational tales of success. Now, I must admit that Stuart is very humble. He’s known for his subtle nature and modesty. So it’s safe to say that he is down playing the impact and importance of this blog on all of humanity, now and for generations to come.

Now onto my actual point, yes there is one.

I know that most of you drop in to catch up on my latest endeavors in art and life. I always try and keep it informative, light-hearted and of course sexy. But every now and then I’ll dump some personal stuff here that isn’t all that fun. A perfect example of something that “isn’t all that fun” was the announcement a few days ago that my father may have lung cancer. Well to get to the straight to the point – he does.

Now before everyone starts getting all bent out of shape and emotional there is good news. The doctors feel confident that it’s operable. The cancer was caught early and has not spread and is only in one lung. The prognosis is extremely favorable. I’m both relived and thrilled with the news and to be honest I’m also shocked. I’m shocked because long story short my dad isn’t the most responsible person ever and RARELY goes to the doctor. And by rarely I mean never. It’s some sort of blessing that he happened to get an X-Ray last a couple weeks back, which alerted the doctors that something may be wrong. Regardless of the hows, whats or whys the bottom line is that everything looks like it will work out just fine.

I want to thank everyone for your calls, emails and prayers. It really means a lot. Not as much as… say money or shiny cool things, but still it means a lot. Thank all.

Site redesign and Big News Check it out

Scarlett-Johansson101

Hello Hello HELLO.

I’m back bitches.

[Ric Flair]

WHooooooo!

Stylin’ and profilin’ and looking how I can look. Whooooooo!

[/Ric Flair]

How the hell is everyone? Yeah that’s great, whatever. Let’s talk about me now. Shall we?

As I’m sure you have noticed by now the site has a new look and was designed to make stalking me that much easier. Oh and I encourage you to stalk me via Twitter, subscribing to the feed to this blog or whatever other method you can cook up. Well, except for lurking around the outside of my house wearing a stealth suit made of shrubs and discarded cheeseburger wrappers. That would just be weird for the both of us and no don’t ask me how I know that.

But I digress.

I have some huge announcements to make so be sure to call the neighbors and wake the kids and be sure everyone sitting down.

Ok ready? Good.

I have been selected to do sketch cards for the upcoming Marvel 70th anniversary card set! I know awesome right? I know I know that some of you think that it’s almost slave labor doing the sketch cards but I don’t consider 25 bucks a card that bad.

Heh I just screwin’ with you.

I’m not really getting 25 dollars a card but I do look at it as a great opportunity. It seems to have been working out pretty good for Cat Staggs so I’m hoping for the best. Anyway I signed up to do 150 cards by January, so time to break out the copics and microns and get to work. A friend of mine Keith O’Malley (who is just an urban legend to some) has done several sets and has given me some great advice. Well actually his advice wasn’t all that great. Hmmm…come to think of it I don’t even think it was advice. He just said he loved men named Wyatt.

Anyway so that’s great news and…AND…I may start teaching a figure drawing class at the Charlotte Art League! Yeah I don’t think the Art League has really thought that through either but I’m still meeting with them tomorrow morning to discuss it and suss out any details. I will be sure to announce their decision here but if you up to minute updates hit me up on Twitter.

Finally I would just like to say thank you to everyone for your support during the recent tumultuous episodes in my life. I assure that everything is getting back on track (finally) and I am officially back to making regular blog posts, just like in the good ol’ days.

Oh I also have a few other cool projects on the horizon and I will be announcing those on Monday. I think that about does it for this post and again I apologize for the lack of content over the last few weeks but I’m sure you guys understand why.

Now to keep with tradition of this amazing blog, whenever I don’t have a relevant image to post I post a picture of the lovely Scarlett Johansson and Scarlett I know you had nothing to do with those cease and desist letters. Those meddlesome attorneys just don’t understand our love.

Holy Crap Jason has news!

scarjowidow

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.

An update for those of you hitting refresh over and over

iphone

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.
