-Inspired Procrastination pt.1

I took on a freelance Flash job the past 2 weeks and with my show coming up I didn't get a chance to set up a post for last week. I did find some time to sit down and make this video.



A few months ago I saw this kid playing a version of Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" and was in awe. I tracked down German based musician, David Qualey who wrote the arrangement and purchased the music from him.

I made the mask a few Halloween's ago, there's a string attached to the ears, then to a nail on the wall, then hooked back over the capo and wrapped around my hand to move the ears as my hand slides up the neck. I don't really play guitar, but after practicing everyday for a month straight its the best that I could do with a mask on.

Ok, back to work.

    You are the most amazing, interesting person I have ever come across. I actually got one of your paintings tattooed on me because your art leaves me speechless. luckily, I listen to Circa...or else i never would have found you.!

    I love all of your work. It is all so amazing and inspiring. I was wondering, have you have ever designed a tattoo for someone? Would you be willing to?

    That was charming, Esao. Are you dressed as your dog, Soybean? Thanks for sharing the video.

    Thanks everyone.

    Scott, I'm honored that you'd want to have something so permanent of my work, but I don't have time to do commissions for tattoo designs these days. I'm sorry.

    Yeah Sarah, I was Soybean for Halloween in 2005.

    Ah, that was awesome. I kept not watching the video every time I came to your page because I had no idea what was going on..with the dog head and all lol. You learned well for a month (: That gives me hope to learn. I am also planning on getting a tattoo of your artwork, and I luckily found you through Circa Survive too. I'm really glad that I did. I hope you have an amazing show Saturday. I plan to visit new york someday, hopefully to see your art work. You inspire me to believe that I can be an artist. Thank You.
