hello cleveland.

I opted to say fuck it to sleeping in the Cleveland airport and got a hotel room like a baller. hahaha. i figure i can shower, sleep in a bed, and actually get up in a good mood tomorrow.

The flight to cleveland was super uneasy feeling. i hate flying on small jets. you can literally feel everything. every gust of wind, every turn or move the plane makes. it makes you very aware of how not in control of the situation that you are.

I'm staying in the cleveland airport sheraden hotel. its actually pretty nice. the food is horrible.

after checking in i walked down to the main lobby and ordered myself some dinner. i got a chicken alfredo pasta dish. i figure it something kind of difficult to mess up.


it was gross. just gross. the pasta wasnt cooked and the chicken was overcooked. go figure. whateves. I plan on getting some breakfast in the am. hopefully that will be a step up.

while in my hotel room i did a small painting freehand. i didnt have any black pigment. so all the black was down with a sharpie ish marker.

oh well:





Arizona in the morning hopefully.

more adventures to come.

Lost.

So.

Im traveling to Arizona for christmas, and low and behold, my flights get delayed and now i get to spend the night in the cleveland airport till tomorrow morning when the next flight to Phoenix is available.

Ive been sittin in the syracuse airport now for the past 3 1/2 hours. people watching, people avoiding, and inter-nerding. I'm still not exactly sure when i will be taking off to actually even get to cleveland. hurry up and wait right?

I'm not too worried about it. its more the circus of the airport and how people cant grasp that the people working the ticket counters dont control anything with a plane at all taht bothers me.

I have a vending machine with coca cola ready and waiting. I'm Set.

I am, on the other hand. pretty excited to get out of Syracuse for a little while. the snow is whack. i dont mind the cold. plus it will be nice to see everyone.


this is my life currently.





so besides that ive painting more and feeling more motivated towards art in general. i will post more pictures later when im stuck in cleveland for 14 hours.

its already starting to get dark. this day is taking forever.

Painting




I did this painting for a trade With Rachel Anne who works at Sacred Heart Tattoo in Georgia. I did it with liquid acrylic on water color paper. ive been doing alot of the flash style paintings lately.


I've been getting more and more motivated to paint a lot again. its nice to have something to fallback on while the shop is slow.

I'm starting a series of paintings of girls similar to the one i posted on here. I'm going to try to stay on the ball and get them finished in a timely fashion.


i started going to the gym again today, I'm feeling good and getting ready to be good shape again.

I'm going to be doing quite a bit of traveling over the next couple of months. unfortunately I'm not going to be tattooing on all of those trips. but on the upside it will be awesome to have some vacation time.
