Johnston Graphics’ Zombie Art

my artwork was just recently featured on thrillist.com . This came as a surprise to me, because the discovery was made via Etsy, so it just goes to show no matter what the venue.. you always have a chance of getting seen… it’s just that you need to make the effort to (be) seen… and I suggest using every possible outlet that the web has to offer…I have quoted the actual article below, or you can run over and see it for yourself at the link i provided…

When the zombie apocalypse comes, and it will come, things’re going to change: for instance, your morning jog’ll become more of a slow stagger, you’ll have a certain new affinity for brainy chicks, and your roommates’ll get pissed at you for eating all the Pop Tarts Steve. Making light of the situation with portraits of the walking dead, Johnston Graphic’s Zombie Art.JG’s a collection of undead-themed artwork from a Steel City-based former tat artist and current graphic designer who’s a self-professed “B-Movie/ Horror/ Sci-Fi junkie”, and is spreading his own “zombie plague” via unique, super-cheap, graphic illustration-styled prints that can be sent as cards, or alternately hung on the wall in fraaaaaames. All works’re printed as line drawings before being hand-colored and signed, with occasion-based selections including a holiday piece with a chick in a Santa hat and blood-covered lips sitting on a giant gift, plus a birthday card featuring an undead gal inflating a blood-stained balloon, and another toting big balloons and a bloody cake, also how to describe Katy Perry leaving a London bakery.

Non-calendar-reliant pieces include “Surprise”, with a sniper taking out a shambling corpse in the field, “Zombie Pin Up”, featuring a well-built undead lady framed by a two-olive Martini and pair of dice, and “Zombie Palin”, showcasing the former VP candidate as a braindead cadaver capable only of simple utterances and limited decisions…wait a minute!Dude’s also doing vampire-themed pieces, and, if you’ve got the desire and a little extra coin, he’ll work up a custom portrait of a zombified you, which’ll be a great way for your roommates to remember you once they’ve handed you the zombie eviction notice: a 12 gauge.

Testing new app.. BlogPress

Just taking a moment to test out a new app I just picked up BlogPress it gives you the ability to post to multiple blogging platforms from your iPad even posting the same content to multiple blogs at the same time if you have more then one blog… And it has options to update Facebook and twitter profiles that you have posted a new post..

Very handy for me since I use my iPad as a mobile sketch pad.. And updating to my virtual sketchbook on my blog seems to compleat the idea of… Sketching on the go..

Take a peek… So far I like it.. And will help to expand my posting in the future…

Enjoy..

Stomach virus

I got really sick last week, had a temperature of 100 degrees, and couldn’t really keep anything down very well… It almost took me the whole week to recover.

I really had trouble with acid reflux and eating or drinking anything acidic. This really helped force my coffee addiction down.. I might use this as my launching point for this New Year… As usual the plan is… health…. health.. health…
