Cool Art

So I found this artist on DeviantArt a long time ago and have been watching them ever since. I LOVE the style... and especially this one:

Octi-pack

1) because I love sea creatures
2) because the tentacles are drawn so awesomely.

I love the coloring style and the realistic yet cartoonish flavor.
It's a neat mixture.
Wish I could do that.

I thought this was cool.
Awesome picture. Looks like it could have almost been photoshopped.

I just love moose :D

lol

Oh the effects of tv...

MOWA

So in my search for ideas for my website project I went to google and simple typed in "web art". The first thing that came up was most definitely interesting. It was a site called Museum of Web Art. And it's really nifty. They have different galleries of things that move and change and things that stay constant. A kids section with stories and whatnot.
Check it out (especially if your stuck :P )

Animation

I wasn't sure if I posted this before... I think I posted an unfinished version, but here ya go. My animation of about 700 frames...
It was a lot of work, but fun. So much fun.

I'm likin' this new project we're on now too... the web one. I'm getting those creative juices flowin' lol

Insanity

So the past few days have been absolute insanity for me.
Rehearsals ALL OVER the place, 4 concerts... and got Nicole (a Guiding Eyes for the Blind dog) today.

I just kinda wanted to talk about the concerts.
First was playing for honors convocation (I got a music scholarship... Hurray!) - we played (again) Erin Johnston's senior thesis. Two movements from an Irish suite that she arranged. It's so nice, especially the minor parts. What I love about it is that the minor part has the main melody as opposed to the major, which is what usually happens. The second is a slip jig - a famous one called The Black Velvet Band. (you might know it from the Dropkick Murphys) They're both pretty and lots of fun to play, but strange as a processional for honors convocation...

I then had to play for Michaela Cohoon's senior bass recital. Well I shouldn't say HAD to... I wanted too, and it was fun. It was only one song, but very cool. The classical stuff (solo cello sonatas and such) had a weird effect tot hem on bass, they were like, kind of mushy... all together... the notes blurred together because the pitches are so low. The second half was jazz (the half i played in). We played a Libertango. Very neat. Vibraphone, guitar, violin and bass.

Later that night I played with the Catskill Symphony Orhcestra. It was powerful. We had a 100 voice chorus and 4 soloists. Played some Elgar, Brahams, and... well, the graduation song. The official name of the piece was Ode to Coronation. It was ridiculously powerful - at those points when the whole chorus and the soloists as well as the orchestra are playing and singing the loudest... so powerful it gave me goosebumps.

Sunday I had the chamber music concert. It went well, played more Elgar and some Bach. I had to conduct the Bach and some said I started too fast, but I think it was a perfect tempo. Unfortunately there were very few people in the audience. Very very few. But oh well... still went well...
