I have just received notification of my acceptance into Artsprojekt! I am in a little disbelief at the moment, as I was not expecting to be warranted such an opportunity. To be a part of an exclusive community of talented artists whom I've looked up to for years is a dream come true. And this is the a small step towards making my larger goals a reality.

A small selection of my illustrations and t-shirts are available through the Artsprojekt website and my zazzle store. Browse Here

With this new status I am looking forward to bringing you several new pieces soon!

In other news, I have completely finished tracking the Pixel Parade album! I may have to re-record some vocals on one song, but other than that, the music is finished. I'm in the beginning stages of the artwork and packaging production. Although financing the album's production is becoming a small issue, which may push it's release date to early next year. That remains to be decided. I'll be updating on this soon. in the meantime, please check out several of the tracks from the upcoming album at the Pixel Parade web page Right Here!

In even further news, I am exceptionally proud to announce that I have 12 pieces in the top 36 winning places, including 1st and 3rd place, in PxlDust's quarterly artist competition! All 12 pieces will be published in PxlDust Magazine both online at pxldust.com and for purchase on lulu.com soon. You can check out the entire 36 winning pieces and all of the artists in the competition Right Here!

Hard work pays off.

Just finished updating the website. A plethora of new work is up, so please take a look around.

I only have 12 days left for the PxlDust competition. Still holding several of the top positions including 1st and 2nd! Things are looking promising for the moment, but who knows what will between now and the 22nd.

The Pixel Parade album is coming along well. Completed 12 new tracks for it on Saturday! The recording/mixing process is just about finished, and then it will be on to the art and package design!

Not much going on with CCVSTR at the moment, but both Mr. Page and I are busy. i'm trying to mix the demos we recorded and get some of them up on our page in the next couple days. So stay tuned!
