Nice! You should write a short zombie story so we can use it as a cover. A 5-page apocalyptic zombie story. Very serious...

I've been reading zombie novels and this image would be great for a book cover!

May I be the first to say "Thank You" for sharing this experience. I'm so glad you were there to be my shoulder to lean on or as it was, a hand to hold while I endured what can only be described as a thousand searing needles raking through my skin. Though it sounds trite, I'm blessed to have you as my friend. You are quite possibly the most intriguing graphic design artist/writer/yogi maven I've ever known.

Re: First attempt @ Vector Art & 6 things I learned

Yes. I think you can over inspire, as you put it: focus too much on what other people are doing, get too much inspiration where your own identity as an artist diminishes b/c you have too much of other people's work in your head. And as I delineated, for me, I was looking at everyone's work so much that I wasn't producing my own.

Re: Warhol as a Designer: an Experience

I recently visited the gallery and left with a whole new outlook on both Warhol and pop art, and after thinking about your posting... I guess I really wasn’t into pop art because I didn’t understand it. But from a marketing stand point, Warhol was a pioneer of graphic design and a true artist! When listening to John Bonth narrate Warhol’s diary, Warhol made sense. The light bulb went off. Warhol became famous for obvious reasons, he was involved in a revolution of graphic design! He broke the mold, he broke rules and made his own. He did what he believed was a “free” art. He did what his heart felt. He was a very straight forward person, there was nothing to hide and he depicted that in his art. I believe his repetition of art and adding to it by layers was a good depiction of who he is and how he thinks. He believed that if everyone thought the same and agreed on everything, it would be a better world because everyone was the same! What a concept! The problem with that, robotics and machine-like lives. No thought, just do and produce…I’m just babbling I really don’t know…good luck.

interesting!! can definitely see the similarities to some of today's graphic design work...
three classic warhol quotes:
* I've never met a person I couldn't call a beauty.
* I really don't care that much about "Beauties." What I really like are Talkers. To me, good talkers are beautiful because good talk is what I love.
* When you're interested in somebody, and you think they might be interested in you, you should point out all your beauty problems and defects right away, rather than take a chance they won't notice them...

Hey,
I know about the to-do-list thing. I write too many lists of what I like, need, should do instead of simply doing it.
So you're not alone with this... I hope you'll find a way to let it go. Have a wonderful weekend.
