Last week, I resigned as a member of the weekly illustration blog, sugarfrostedgoodness.com. I had been a contributor and member since May 2007. The duration of my membership was not without its controversy (and I am all about the controversy!) In recent months, however, I have not been pleased with the direction in which the website was headed. It had gone from a great forum for artists to display their work to a preachy, needy, clingy “hugfest” proliferated by people who feel the need to impose their religious dogma on those who do not necessarily share their views.
I just wanted to draw.
So, I found another blog, Inspire Me Thursday*, to which I will contribute. It works is basically the same as Illustration Friday and Monday Artday (except they post their word on Thursdays… get it? Of course you do!) Here is my first contribution for the inspiration “Albert Einstein”. Here we go, Inspire Me Thursday, hope you don’t piss me off. (*As of January 2010, Inspire Me Thursday is no longer an illustration showcase website.)
“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe.”
Albert Einstein

Well, glad you found a new outlet for your ranting. Er, I mean, illustrations. Love the drawing and the quote! Good luck on being inspired every Thursday!
Smallville always inspires me on Thursday’s
Very nice portrait, I like the drifty hair and his eyes.
Eh, brah.
Guess what else is infinite. The line to get inside the Riverdale Walmart at 5 a.m.
I love doing research about my species; just don’t wanna get any on me.
Oh, what the heck. C’mon, give us a hug.
Besides, I needed deodorant and Little Debbies.
Love always!
your pal,
