Welcome, darlings.
Look at me, not taking 3 months to write again.

I’ve put a couple of new things up in the boutique and gave my site a small facelift.

My birthday is in 3 days. How alarming! Celebrate by buying some artwork off of me.
There are now a couple of framed originals on sale for the first time.
Humor me and take a look.

Greetings and salutations!

For some odd reason, it’s a bit difficult for me to keep constant with this. I realize that in this day and age, the way to connect to people on this crazy interweb is through blogging. But sometimes, I just can’t be arsed.

In any event.
It’s about 1,000 degrees here in Los Angeles. 81 to be exact, which is a considerate cool-down from yesterday when it was about 99. When this happens, I, like most native Angelenos, start to get excited by the return of warm weather and how nice it is outside… and then proceed to hole up in our air conditioned comfort because No Way am I going anywhere, it’s HOT out there!

Anyways.
I’ve joined several awesome sites as of late. Too much free time, I suppose.

In the meantime, I sneakpeak at an upcoming project:

current music: Tom Waits - What Keeps Mankind Alive

Greetings darling vultures.
It’s been too long, really. Real life things have been keeping me busy and in trouble for quite some time.
My brain is swimming with ideas for new drawings. Tomorrow they’ll take shape.

Major website overhall will be complete soon.

That’s all for now.

current beverage: water.
current sound: The Pierces - Secret

Greetings and salutations, darlings!
A few things to rave about:

Motor City Release Party
Exciting news!
Our good friends over at Motor City are getting ready to release their graphic novel!
I’ve taken a peek at some of the pages and honestly they’re just effing brilliant. Every single page. Who doesn’t love Rockabilly Monster Manga!!
Most exciting of all is the upcoming release party/art show that promises to impress your brains and eyeballs and ensure you a night of good ol fashioned rock n roll debauchery.
I’m a few steps away from finishing up two pieces made especially for this show.
For all the gritty details, visit the Motor City blog:

4. Last but definately not least, heres my semi-annual plug for the awesome that is
Motor City comic
Created/written by a good friend of mine and amazingly illustrated, Motor City is what you get when you mix greasers, ghouls, vampires, hot rods, hot chicks and lots of awesome. Visit the blog, check out the website. The graphic novel is set to release early 2008 with a kickass party and art gallery showing (which yours truly will be participating in).

So that’s all for now.
More things of the exciting nature at a later time.

Greetings and salutations.
Lately I have become inspired. Perhaps I will make this place a little more bloggish in nature and talk about more than art (mine or others). Let’s chat, shall we? Talk about movies we like? Other blogs to check out? Tips on how to get blood out of the carpet?
Wait…

Well, along this line, I want to make the first installment about something awesome. Let’s talk film.

So. Blood for Dracula. If you haven’t seen it, check it out. That’s if you like Vampires or any type of cheesy horror. Not if your favourite movie is… I dunno… The Notebook.
By the way, don’t let the subtitle “Andy Warhol presents…” scare you away. He had nothing to do with it.
Anyway. 1974. Starring the uber-hot Udo Kier. You know him. He’s in every vampire movie ever. Even the vampire movies before he was born. Alright, maybe not those but you’ve seen him, you know him, you love him. In this particular film he’s super slick and oh-so-stylish (especially in a fur coat that closely resembles one of mine) and really guys, all he wants is blood from a virgin. Apparently that’s as hard to come by in 1974 as it is now.

Count Dracula is looking for a wife. Actually, he’s in a weakend state and is scouring the Italian countryside for virgin blood to make him stronger. He finds himself staying in a villa belonging to a once-rich man, his wife, his four daughters and their boyfriend Communist Klaus (played by Joe from the Bronx). Of course the man is trying to peddle off his daughters to regain family wealth. Of course, Dracula is all about biting these hot chicks, provided they’re pure. They should be pure, right? Religious Italy? The plot thickens.

The film looks fantastic because it was recently revamped (srsly, am here all night) and there’s just a whole bunch of beautiful people in it. Aside from Heir Kier and his Crispin-Glover-esque assistant, the four daughters look like they’ve come straight out of a Mucha painting. There’s tons of nudity and sex and you don’t mind it because everyone is gorgeous.

So, big thumbs up.
Until next time.

After a long hiatus, I’ve gotten around to revamping the website a little. And I’ve started working on sketches again also. I have a ton of projects that are in the works. We’ll see how long it takes for me to finish any of them.

I was just given a new computer (back to Mac! it’s absolutely wonderful. All of you thank Uncle Junior) and so now I am equipped with the means to conquor the internet. I mean… do more art stuff. Yes.

So! In the meantime, visit the re-vamped site: serpenthes.com

And come back later.

Greetings and salutations, dearest darlings.
For the longest time I thought I would get rid of this silly blog since I can’t be arsed to maintain it.
Did a quick sketch today, which made me happy, and worked on a little something to sell you.

One is up on the site: serpenthes.com

The other in the boutique: serpenthes shoppe

Besides this, I have nothing new to share with you. I intend on revamping the website a little bit because I’m quite tired of looking at it as it is. I also just finished the most marvelous book I’ve read in a long while - The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson. I highly recommend it if you like history told in a very interesting and understandable way.

More at a later time.
