I have been uber busy with school work and getting my classes organized. Done absolutely no digital art work in a while. Thank you for all the lovely comments and features! I will answer them soon and also put up a special feature journal for one of my friends. ^^

Now some exciting news, my Ad Design II class was canceled before the semester started (not enough people signed up) but it was brought back because many of us needed it to graduate next semester. Well a cool thing happened on top of this good news...those of us in the class have an actual client! They are a grocery store that wants to expand into a more modern setting (their old chain looks like it's from the 80's) and are giving a $1500 prize to the winner with the best design. We where asked to design a logo, Bakery/Deli, Produce and Beer/Wine departments. Giving us full control over fronts, signage, color palette and materials. We are told not to worry about cost.

Grade wise we have to think outside the box (or we fail the class) and I chose and 'Old World Charm' Marketplace Tuscan theme. I will update with ideas here and there, any input would be very much appreciated!! I am focusing on the Bakery, Produce and Winery departments.

And at the rate my Wed Design class is going I may have a website up by December!

Thank you to all of those that actually read this monster of a journal entry!
Hope everyone is doing well!

Wow I have not been on in a while! I had to clean out the deviation, journals and polls messages...just too many. So if anyone want's me to see a piece or check their page just let me know!

I've been real busy with training sessions, teeth and visiting family lately. This weekend is my vacation with my family and best friend, Yays! Gotta love roller coasters and water parks! ^_^

My new puppy has doubled in size! And he is soooo cute, I will upload some pics soon! :3

I'm working on several pieces at one time, so I should have some stuff up any day. Bookmarks are on hold, I just don't have time to do free gifts right now. Experimenting with a new style, lots of shading and color, but still pretty minimalistic...almost sketch like.

Hope everyone is enjoying their summer! I miss you all!

This morning I had my appointment at 9am to get my braces in! They are clear on the top and plain metal on the bottom.(it cost $300 extra to make them both clear but nothing to make the top clear!!?) So for the next 2 years I have a metal mouth! X3 I still need to have 4 teeth pulled to make some room, but other than that I'm all set! Although my mouth hurts...

And I finally got tired of my old Fossil wallet falling apart on me (had it for 3 years), so I went to the COACH store in my cities mall and got me a classy Brown Monogram Wristlet! I love it!

How is everyone's Summer going? Or how much longer do you have until schools out?

Be safe everyone!

I just saw 'Angels and Demons' and I have to say...it was amazing!

It was very different from the book but the outcome is still the same. I would advise anyone from bashing it until you have seen it...reading reviews doesn't count.

I myself believe in God (but not with the label of 'religion' which is very suggestive and easily stereotyped) and this movie does not bash religion. It simply poses can science exist without God. And why can religion and God not exist together...who the hell ordained science the absence of God? And why cannot religion involve science? These are just some of the questions that I myself ask. XD

I have a very serious philosophical side, I rarely bring it to the web and I never bash others beliefs. If you believe the movie and books are evil than that's ok. If you believe the movies and books are incredible and do not believe in God then that's ok too. If you don't care then that's also ok.

The movie was slam packed with action and intrigue. There's lot's of murder and races against time. And the ending...phew that was unexpected! I loved the movie!

I say everyone old enough should go see it! If nothing else it's a time killer (long movie).

Well that's my ramble for tonight I hope I didn't write anything that offended, if I did then I'm sorry...but I won't change anything.

Yay I'm done with it all! I'm itching to go play at Universal Studios so bad I can hardly stand it. although I'm not looking forward to my surgery or braces...but at least afterward I shall be healthy and have purtiful teeth (only crowded a bit). :3

How is everyone? I stopped by maybe twice this week and saw some people are returning for the summer, I can't wait till your back on guys!

Also a funny thing happened...I ran over my phone. You may laugh, may parents sure did. I was visiting my mom and siblings last weekend and it must have fallen out of my pocket when I was cleaning my car. Well I ran over it and it's destroyed. I liked that phone a lot too, so anyone know of some good dependable phones?

I look forward to seeing all of your works as soon as I get the time to visit oh so many pages this weekend. Miss you all!

I now have a video of 'Bleu' my long haired Dachshund on Youtube, he is soooo adorable. :3
Video - Don't know what's going on with the address, but type in silverartbrush and it should bring up my videos.
