I recently joined the Behance Network which is sort of like Facebook for creative professionals. I am in the process of building my portfolio there and so far I really like the features they have. So drop by and check it out!

Colors! on the Nintendo ds

ANDY — Sat, 19 Jan 2008 18:39:00 +0000

I first heard about Colors! on the Lines and Colors blog. I was so impressed with what I saw, I immediately went out and got a Nintendo DS. Not being a gamer, I was still a little skeptical about the quality of the app, especially since it was a “homebrew.” Colors! along with the DS is just awesome, period. The app works great and it is totally suitable for thumbnails and even more finished work. The DS screen is bright enough, that digital painting outside is now a real possibility. My thanks to Jens Andersson for giving artists a really wonderful tool.

New Look for a New Year

Since August, I have had 56 unique vistors….you know who you are, the one there in the back with waaaay to much time on your hands, or you the family member who is seeing what I’m up to. All of you should be gratified to see a new look here in andyland, at least as gratified as I am in having you folks look at my sight, all 56 of you. You have my sincere thanks.

Death Race 2000

I had the pleasure of watching “Death Race 2000″ not long ago. I love the begining scenes of David Carradine walking to his car, he does this great Boris Karloff as Frankenstein impression of shooing reporters out of his way. In a remarkable display of chutzpah, Carradine’s character is of course, also named Frankenstein. Death Race is the post-everything movie that people are trying to make today without success, no matter how much money they throw around. Most directors today probably couldn’t get lunch catered for what Corman spent on this entire film. Truly a classic.

We’ll Get used to the name

People will line up for these, without a doubt. This has to be the sexiest looking laptop ever. Eventhough the MacBookAir is not a wearable computer it is definitely a fashion accessory.

I’m a big fan of Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, the strong sense of narrative in the songs really get my imagination working. This is what I hope will be a start of a series of pieces inspired by music, both by Nick Cave and others.

I know I haven’t posted anything new in quite awhile, due to various reasons. I find myself with a bit of time, so here are some new works.
