So like..yeah!

He don't stand a chance
He'll need a gun
Cause all he'll do is dance
Cause all he'll do is...
DANCE!

While I was on the subject of Ubuntu, I thought I'd share some artwork I did for it. Not as artsy as I would have liked, but it works for this weeks subject: Reflection.It is my wallpaper that you are free to download. Just click the pic.

Illustration Friday : envy

May 28 2005

Peace everyone! Often times we want what others have , not knowing that what we have is just as good. Be it for looks, wealth,personality, or position, we all have envied someone.

Most of the time what we have is just as good for us, and what we want isn't all it's cracked up to be!

I think the pic speaks for itself. Put a little love in your heart. The world is yours. Why can't we be friends? You get it.

April 29 2005

While I have not come up with an ILLUSTRATION this Friday, I'll help you out. A dude who could orchestrate his own art was born on this day. Who was it?

Oh yes, it's Duke E.'s Birthday ya'll ! He has some of the most BLAZING tracks. Although he won't be comming out with anymore hits, he still rocks, in a Jazzy kinda way. If you didn't know, now you know ! I have much love and apprecitation for his contributions to the American Arts as well as his impact across the globe.

Happy Birthday Duke Ellington !

Be well, do good work, and keep in touch.^{® -} Garrison Keillor ( of the writers almanac)

Illustration Friday : daring

April 25 2005

I don't care what anyone says. Being an American who is a practicing Muslim can be a daring feat at times!

My very simple art was accomplished with Photoshop, Google images(old glory),Macromedia Freehand, and screen capture button( I didn't know how to convert one file into another type of file).

Enjoy!

Get Your Shine ON !

This was so funny I HAD to post it.

Jack wakes up at home with a huge hangover he can't believe. He forces himself to open his eyes, and the first thing he sees is a couple of aspirins next to a glass of water on the side table. And, next to them, a single red rose! Jack sits down and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed. Jack looks around the room and sees that it is in perfect order, spotlessly clean. So is the rest of the house. He takes the aspirins, cringes when he sees a huge black eye staring back at him in the bathroom mirror, and notices a note on the table: "Honey, breakfast is on the stove, I left early to go shopping--Love you!"

He stumbles to the kitchen and sure enough, there is hot breakfast and the morning newspaper. His son is also at the table, eating. Jack asks, "Son... what happened last night?" "Well, you came home after 3 A.M., drunk and out of your mind. You broke some furniture, puked in the hallway, and got that black eye when you ran into the door."

"So, why is everything in such perfect order, so clean, I have a rose, and breakfast is on the table waiting for me?" His son replies,"Oh, THAT!.. Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and when she tried to take your pants off, you screamed, "Leave me alone, lady, I'm married!"

Broken furniture -- $85.26
Hot Breakfast -- $4.20
Red Rose bud -- $3.00
Two Aspirins -- $.38
