Three Red Bulls, seven hundred miles, two ciggys, multiple rice crispies threats, seventy dollars in gas, and one hotel room. My first day of two from this trip was pretty smooth. I was excited that the hotel had internet and since I got off the road around seven thirty, I actually got a little painting done. Totally different than anything I will do at American Greetings but I enjoy mixing things up. I already feel more creative being more north, and I must say that the people just get nicer and nicer the northern you get, or is that just me? I'm excited about living in Cleveland, (yeah Cleveland) especially because I will be a part of a very talented team of illustrators. I'm honored. Saxton Moore, Jorge Lacera, James Groman, Kelle Riley, amongs others are incredibly talented and creative. You don't believe me, just check out their blogs though my links. Mauricio I must say that I missed you and thought about you buddy, good luck in N.Y. Anyways I will definetly be updating this thing way more often with hopefully a lot better stuff than this painting, but hey, it's just a blog!
