As I'm sure all of you have already Sohmer's post about our summer convention season (see below if for some reason circumstance has kept you from it!) AND unless you've been living under a rock for the past several months you will also be aware that I have been hosting a weekly show nearly every Friday evening over at Ustream.tv. (Here's the link.)

Well with the coming convention season, as well as other summer adventure plans, tomorrow night (Friday July 3rd) will necessarily be the last regularly scheduled show until September rolls around. This is not to say I won't try to Ustream as I can, but it's going to be, out of necessity, more spontaneous until I stop gallivanting all across the countryside. That being said, I wanted to really make tomorrow night's Ustream special so I'm throwing it open as an ALL REQUEST ART SPECIAL. If there's something you've long wanted me to draw, here is your chance to ask me to do it AND to watch me draw it live, as I do my best to take questions from the chat room and answer them live.

Here's the catch, I'm not going to take your requests from the chatroom. Things are fast and furious enough there so if you have a request, I'm asking you zap it my way via Twitter (my twitter handle is @lartist). No guarantees that I will draw your request, and I highly doubt I'll get to everyone's but I will do my best to conglomerate the most popular and most interesting (to me) ideas. All artwork will be posted after the show in Teh Art Forum for folks to enjoy. I will also try to answer and demonstrate any twittered questions on how I work, photoshop techniques etc, while creating the sketches.

So there you have it. I will take your twittered questions from now till tomorrow evening at 6pm ET. The show will begin broadcasting at 8pm and continue on towards midnight.

I hope to see you there!

As it is already July 1st somehow, it seems that my ability to stop time has failed to manifest itself. Despite my disappointment at my lack of superhero abilities, the looming convention season is…looming…looming even larger. Seems like as good a time as any to run through our summer schedule, don't you think?

As it...

A few weeks ago, the wife and I were at Ikea, because it had obviously been too long since I'd used the devils device (the Allen Key) to put together sub par furniture.

After making our purchases, I headed to the parking lot to retrieve the car. Once I had successfully and skillfully backed the car into a spot that was probably...
