incredible

I think there is a point in everyone's life where you realize what you are meant for, what you are going to do, and where you need to be. This point came to me when I was almost 21, and I experienced the glory that is, The Incredibles. It wasn't just the amazing animation, it was the style, the mood, the world that was created. They were able to perfectly catch a 1960's style movie, but mix it with a hero base feel. When I first watched the movie, I was filled with the overwhelming desire to draw, to create my own world. I know I must animate... And thus, I'm on that road. Still movies hit me and make me yearn and pine for the feel of a perfect pencil on paper, but it was The Incredibles that led me to my path. I know the path is long in front of me, but the passion to create something so unique, such as The Incredibles, will never leave me.

For the benefit of..

One of the most influential bands of all times, whose influence is still seen today. A band I turn to daily. And even though Paul died early in 1964, his replacement has done a great job. Go Beatles go!

The Cous Cous Kid

The CousCous Kid, artist/graphic designer, has truly taken his art to new levels. In a world of quick fixes with "stock" vector images. The "Kid" proudly hand draws/creates all of the elements in his virtual world. An incredible example to all around. So let's raise a glass to Mr. Kid and his world of fine tuned doodles, and also fart at those who use art made by someone else in their blasphemes. AMEN!

The desire within...

Sometimes, when I see an inspirational piece of art... All that I can feel is this.

Si Fi.... FYI

Si Scott has perfected the art of Flourish illustration. He has taken his style and applied it in a way that has affected the graphic design world like few others have even come close to. By taking simple curves and lines to create beautiful and powerful imagery, like only he can do, everything hand drawn from the eyes of it's creator. Though, it hasn't come without imitators, this style of Flourish design has become one of the biggest trends as far as logo creation and ad design in 2008 (Belonging to that field myself, and even imitated in my own way). His style alone deserves credit for this movement. I give the highest honor my red beard can muster... To Si.... Here's an "attaboy" for ya! A true inspiration for viewing things as only Jimi Hendrix on crack could discribe. You Friggin Rock!

So to all you Revolution-ites out there, take a gander, and keep it Revolution moving.
