AS OF NOVEMBER 2009, DECEMBER99.ORG WILL BE RELOCATED AT BONEJAW.NET. THANKS!
I've been really busy with commissions lately and have not had much time to do personal work (which means that I'm bubbling with ideas for it and just can't execute any of them). I'll try to get some photos of some doors I've been painting for Lobb and what little progress has been made on Ventricle.
Until I get the chance the update again, I'd like for everyone to check out my friend Mallory's portfolio. She's one of the most talented photographers and designers I've ever seen. :)

Ventricle progress II. |
I haven't been working on it as much as I'd like to.

Alright. |
In the previous entry, I lied about the artwork update -- terribly sorry about that. I'm currently without a decent SFTP program and have to upload everything manually through Movable Type, which isn't a bad system, but gets a bit exhausting after a while.
I've been without much time, recently, in spite of doing very little, and so I've not been able to work on the piece in the previous post too much. However, I do have photographs of what has been completed on it thus far (finished inking, first background wash applied). I've been painting a mural for a friend, and I did manage to produce a much more simplistic layout, but whether or not it's aesthetically pleasing to other viewers is not soemthing I'm aware of -- please let me know if this text is hard to read!
I'm considering opening up a small store on Etsy, to sell old work, as well as some small jewelry bits and pieces I've been conjuring. Whether or not this will happen, only time will tell.

I'm still alive. |
Hoping to finish this piece soon. You can see Maelstrom, my deer fetus, in the jar toward the bottom center of the photo.
At least two new pieces (and progress photos) will be moved to the artwork section this weekend.

Conjoined. |
Oh, art blog, I feel as if I'm neglecting you. Bigger updates... someday. Meanwhile, this piece is for sale. It's 18x24" and matted. $200 or best offer.

Textual update. |
I've been beginning some art and not having much time to finish it (see below -- I'd been hoping to have that piece done within three days, but it must wait until the weekend), and stewing over some ideas. Hopefully, I'll be able to accomplish something portfolio-worthy by the end of June.
I am selling my Illustration I project for the Seven Deadly Sins (covering Lust/Greed -- here is an exceptionally low-quality photograph of it), as its original buyer never paid, and contemplating whether or not I should rid myself of this original or this one, or a piece I've not yet completed (from May) after I'm able to work on it.
I currently have a commission slot open.
Details: a maximum size of 18x24", watercolor/mixed media piece. $45 base minimum; price varies depending on size, detail, etc. Band/gig posters have a base minimum of $60, plus the price of prints needed to be produced (if necessary at all). Contact me via email (pwndrea @ gmail.com) if interested, or for the number to my partially-functional cellular device.
Commission slot filled.
This place needs a new layout and better organization, and I think that Lobb is going to have me paint a door for him.

Long time no see. |
Some sketches from trips to Austin, TX and Grand Rapids, MI, as well as one from a few hours before seeing The Decemberists. More here: 1, 2, 3.
Art party in Austin went very well. Texas is beautiful, and friends and I are planning to return in October to see Daniel Johnston speak/play, if all goes according to plan.
Have decided against going to KCAD in Michigan for various, personal reasons. I am currently working on getting things together to attend a university that is closer to home, and excited about my living situation.
Further pieces-in-the-making may be photographed sometime next week. Summer classes are a bit difficult (mathematics and science courses are my downfall), but I am still working a little bit. I will have two pieces for sale within the next few days, if you're interested.
Signing Off.

No updates for a few days. |
I'll be in Austin with the majestic Rob and wonderful Michael Bell. I'll try to have some decent photos from the show/Texas and get some sketching done. I'm full of ideas but am not so sure if I'll maintain the motivation to execute them.
My portfolio review for KCAD is on June 9th. I'm really nervous about it (and becoming apprehensive about school/art/life in general at the moment -- my ever-so-minute flare of competetiveness died long ago -- and I think that I need to call Melissa for a pep talk soon). Any friends who would like to make the trip with me are welcome to join.
In the meantime, I must direct you to this blog entry by Miriam Rouziek, one of my favorite bloggers.
is a 19-year-old art
major from Illinois (not Chicago). She hopes to someday become a professor of illustration. This
is her blog.
