In August 2014, I found a website called bookbub.com, while searching for a biography of Henry Ford for the kindle. The autobiography that I have found was excellent and I recommend people to read this, if you are interested in the mind of the innovator and industrialist. I found on a site that linked to […]

STEM means Science, Technology, Engineering, Math.  It is an acronym that was used by the National Science Foundation in the early 2000s to describe the field of education in regards to science. It started to make headlines in 2008 and has been a topic of education since then. Schools started to adopt and gain grants […]

I can’t believe this type of tool is in the works. Their claim is that this is “The first robotic arm that makes anything, anywhere” It 3D prints, laser, carves, plots, assembles, picks/places and more on your desktop. It is built with a simplistic design and an arm that is designed to have the precision […]

A friend of mine talked about LUA for game programming, so I got curious and looked some stuff up and happen to stumble on a IOS app that allows you to program using LUA for an IOS app. It is called Codea. I was skeptical at first due to the major limitations and constraints this […]

Along the same lines of being melodic that my wife suggested. Here is one that I call the next step. There is a stepping arpeggio in it. I also call it the next step, because I’m stretching myself to go to the next step.  It is very hard to get out of the same way […]

Here is a new one I did. I had made parts of the board right after the one before “happy bubble land” a few weeks back, but didn’t have the time to record it. Here one titled, “In the dream”, conjuring up the feelings of walking through a dream.  Dreams a very peculiar thing. There […]

So… one night, after Annie heard some of my music, challenged me to make one that  is more happier, and she titled it “Happy Bubble Land”. She said the other ones sound too . . . I forgot the word she used. Anyways, here is a rendition of the happy music.

If you know what this is, then you know what this is. My kids are in Classical Conversation. They have a song that goes through the history called “The Timeline”. I took parts of that song and turned it into a loop. Thank you kids and wife for coaching me in the melody. I experimented […]

I went with a slower more constant powerful feel. Going for the dramatic big and heavy feel. I had so much variation on this, I didn’t get to use it all. I also didn’t want to make it more than 2.5 minutes and then came up under 2 minutes. Movements are fast and I feel […]

I went for a more meditative sound today, with this one called “flowing”. I also just found out that I could download it off my table to my computer straight without having to upload it to dropbox, making it that much faster. Hopefully when you listen you can feel the movement.

Created a board early in the morning and made a tribute to Grieg’s Morning Mood of Peer Gynt, Op. 23, which is used a lot in mass media to depict the (Surprise) the morning sun rise moments. I took the first 2 sections of it it and put it to a beat. This is my […]

After seeing how similar my previous two were, I went with something different. Slower beat, and more based on a bass riff. It was very interesting to push my musical habits out of the way conscientiously. It still prevailed in some live mixing and beat selection. . . The more on the fly stuff, but […]

I built a new board yesterday, spent the time to create a pretty good one. Then I used the option to save it to Google drive.  Unfortunately, it didn’t complete upload completely. I thought I had a chance, when I opened the google drive app on my tablet again, because it queued it. Then, I […]

After getting a tablet, I finally found a way to easily create Electronic music. I found a basic great entry, beginners, track / loop composer called Auxy on the Apple App Store.  It was great. I created my first board, and did my first run and it was exciting. After some time of trial and […]

Really rough, really quick, under huge time constraints. Grape Lemon and a Juice

I am working on solidifying the characters that will be used in telling many stories in the future. Let me introduce you to some of them them. Systemz sees the world in a very black and white way. He tends to be able to simplify very complex issues and compartmentalize them into easy to understand […]

With His feathers he will protect you. Under His wings you will find safety. PS 91:4. May the Lord bring supernatural protection to you. I have decided to purchase the Painter X3 program. I thank God for giving me revelation so that I can have a right relationship with God about art / media as […]

There are times when the imagination kicks in and it becomes so real that it becomes almost like a mini vision of some sort. This is one of those moments when I saw the Korean pear sitting on the counter, I saw very clearly the R2D2 sitting there. About a month ago right after Ira […]

Wow. I now conclude the 30 day trial without getting to paint on the 30th day. I sat down on my computer to open Corel X3 and got the following screen. I took a screenshot of it so that I’ll have a record of my last day. At 11:32 PM, just before the next day. […]

Being the second to last day makes me want to do one more: Microsoft Purchased MineCraft. Gadgets loves to use as much technology as possible. Here he is playing Minecraft with the Kinect Sensor while Systemz talks some sense into him. Drawn on Corel Painter X3 with custom brush with Wacom Intuos. Day 29.5 of […]

These are the characters of my experimental web comics that started . . . in the year 2006. It was called “Untitled Life Journey“. That is eight years back. My latest entry to this comic was in 2012. I really miss these characters. It’s like seeing old friends again. I desire to start a new […]

Took the plunge, used thick lines. Did like 4 under drawing till i gave up on the perfect outline. Wow it’s so hard to get that outline right. Drawn on Corel Painter X3 with custom brush with Wacom Intuos. Day 28 of 30 day Trial.  

Another good concept that I didn’t get to finish.  This is very loosely based off of Norman Rockwell’s Astronauts. He has such great composition and story telling in his paintings. The way he positioned the 3 astronauts was so much more dynamic. Should have looked at his picture BEFORE drawing this from memory. I’ve come […]

They are exploring the terrain. Tried to get more detailed with background and motion. Drawn on Corel Painter X3 with custom brush with Wacom Intuos. Day 26 of 30 day Trial.

Bee and his boy. My attempts at doing hair and fuzz. It didn’t work out too much. It just looks like dirty lines. Oh well.. got to do some more research. Drawn on Corel Painter X3 with custom brush with Wacom Intuos. Day 25 of 30 day Trial.
