Hope to hear from ya!!!!!!!!!!!<br /><br />oh and yeah........ send paypal payments to starvingartist55@yahoo.com<br /><br />lol i almost forgot to add that lol.<br /><br /><br />Also remember that you will have the option to retain the original pencils / inks for a seperate reasonable fee!!!<br /><br />lol ok i guess i dont enough convincing work on here to drum up commissions because i have recieved zero requests.... lol so anyhow, please feel free to hit me up for commissions<br /><br /> ]]></description>

We will be at the con in houston this year for sure though... straight from the horses mouth that is!  Once I have more info, I will be sure to pass it on.<br /><br />   If you're keepin' up, I have been posting alot lately!  I have been practicing and working hard and now I feel like I can finally start posting some real quality pieces!  Isn't this great? The ability to be creative and do such great work that others only wish that they could do... its precious!<br /><br />Chris Foreman<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I want to be better.  I want to be right.  I want them to see it and know it immediately.  Hey, that guy is a student of the science.  I love drawing, creating, and being on the business end of a leadholder.  The finished works, the monsters, and the menagerie of work you're used to is fleeting... it's time for me to hunker down and get some real sketchwork done.  Trust me... this has to be done.  In the mean time, if you all feel like you need it... check out bridgmans life drawing book...it will really come in handy.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Hey ya'll!!!  The Angel Comics Source Book will be available at Wizard World Dallas this mid november and I am ecstatic to have some Glitch Material in said book!!!!  I will only be able to be there on that saturday since I only got so much monies to work with!  I am hoping to meet some of you guys if you find yourself there and I can only imagine how great it will be with the crazy atmosphere!!!  This will actually be my first Wizard World convention and also my first as an artist with material there.... it crazy!  Anyhow, I cannot thank Rod, Mike, Devin, M.C. and Adrian, who have put there faith in me to get this thing together and invested so much patience in helping me to become a better artist!!!  So yeah, the fire has been relit people!  Also, zip and shadow have been doing dollar sketches and I see how much fun they are having and I figure I could also offer up the same service.... which will help me to keep the flavor of drawing fresh and new and also be able to give me an out when I feel like Glitch just isnt happening at that particular time!  So with that being said.... I am now taking requests for dollar sketches, but i unfortunately do not have the capacity to color... but I am sure you all know a colorist at your disposal.  Well, thanks again for all your time and interest in what I trying to do... I cannot thank you all enough!!!<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I dunno if anyone has noticed but I feel like my artistic style is definitely getting better!  The switch to the purple leads have allowed me to give my art a more in depth treatment, given the extra care taken in placement and proportion and placing the shadows where I want and need them.  I haven't done any fan art due to the simple fact I have been connecting with my characters and been trying to connect with them to convey them correctly, with their own personality and distinct looks, which I hope to share with you's guys soon enough.  Payday is this week which means a trip to the art supply store to pick up more purple leads.  I have become kind of spoiled and addicted to them.  Well nonetheless, I encourage you guys to really give my newest submissions a good look and use a keen eye... i wanna know where it is I am falling behind so that I can finaly get ahead and maybe start to make something of myself and my art.  I refuse to let my insecurities be the end of my artistic pursuits.  Thanks for your time as always and I hope you enjoy what you see from me.  Stay Tuned!!!!!<br />
<br />
<br />
ATTENTION!!!  <br />
<br />
  This is an update for any whom would like to join me in brainstorming out a labor of love for this zuda comics deal.... <a href="http://www.zudacomics.com">[link]</a>.  I have read over it and it seems like something that would be a lot of fun considering one comes up with a great, gripping story/original idea that would be hopefullt turned into a published comic via dc comics!!!  Well if anyone is interested in joining up with me on this just lemme know and we can come together on what we could do!  and by the way.... sad loss in the passing of mike wieringo... i read the news today and I feel like God wanted to get some work done up there in heaven, so rest pleasantly ringo sir!  prayers are with the families and friends of this amazing talent and assuredly amazing man!!!<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Hey guys,<br />
<br />
    I know I said that I am trying to change my style for the better but it has become alot more difficult than I had expected.  It has become very discouraging and disheartening and I feel like I cannot for some reason get back into the zone and it is a very inoppurtune time for that believe me!  I have friends whom I am working closely with and I know they believe in me but I can only ask that those friends please continue to do so....  I need the help.  I want this so badly and I am refusing to accept the possibility that this could'nt be what I am supposed to be doing.  I have faith in God and I know He will let this happen for me when its right.... my faith says to keep praying.  I need not be preachy though.... for those out there whoknow I need it... please help me.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ OK.... I have an announcement.  I cannot draw.  Yeah and what I mean by that is that the traditional comic style is something I do not excell at.  I do, on the other hand, excell at the cartoony style that you see in the likes of cheeks' work... and you will from this point on see that from yours trully.  I appreciate all the support I have recieved up to this point and cannot thank ya'll enough for watching me come along.  Looking at my work I see that I destined to stick to what i know and that is the cartoonish style.  Expect to see more of it.<br />
<br />
  I find myself in the position to have Glitchfnd himself printed within the next month or so so it is now officially cruch time.  I hope you all still wanna keep watching, so all I can say and hope for is that you.............. STAY TUNED!!!!<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Okay.... I do feel like I have finally come into my own on this Glitch dream of mine.  I have been struggling to make that connection between myself and Glitch that would help me connect with him... and I have done it.  <br />
    I am tapping into the repressed child/teen angst that we all are holding onto.... with just a pinch of selfish ambition as well.  Glitch doesn't know the extent of his powers or fully understand the nano technology that is providing these powers.... but he does know he wants to use them to his advantage.... hell who wouldn't?!?!  <br />
     That is the connection I have with this guy who resides in my mind.... we have made a connection and now he needs me to tell his story in much the same way an autobiographer would convey someones' story to their fullest satisfaction.  Glitch and I have been melding minds and we are fleshing out his story and prepping it for chronicling.... so get ready!!!!  We do hope that these recent posts will tide ya'll over til' the tale begins fully.  STAY TUNED!!!!!<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ So here I am again.... I reached 1000 accindental clicks and yet I havent posted all that much... and for that I apologize.  I have been indeed busy trying to make that adjustment from just plain ole' artist to comic illustrator/penciller.  I have always had respect for that and all the aspects of the comics industry but now that I am struggling trying to get into it and keep my head above water... i know it has to be near impossible to pick up one of those guys pencils.  <br />
<br />
   With a new year I have to admit I dun' see myself being able to change things that need to be changed,  and yet I know I can change things that may not need to be changed... which is usually the problem I suffer from.  It's gunna be a new year that will present new challenges and a few easy streets, bigger and better joys and scarier and more encompassing fears.  We know who we are on the inside but not everyone else is going to know that right off the bat.  For instance, I know for a fact on the inside of my heart of hearts I want to be in the comic industry in some capacity... it has been my passion for the longest,  and I will not change for anyone... but will anyone else know that?  Have I convinced myself that I will just fit right in there somewhere?  On top of that, have I convinced myself so there will be no way for me to see the forests for the trees?  I know I can do it... but I also know it is a cutthroat industry and you have to stay with the industry and change and morph your style accordingly,  and I plan to do that for this new year.  What about you?<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ FIRST 10 PEOPLE TO REPLY TO THIS JOURNAL GETS FEATURED ON HERE (a.k.a. I'll dive into your gallery and choose three of your best deviations (in my opinion) and post them up here, only catch is You have to put this in your journal if you choose to be one of the 10!<br />
<br />
<br />
1)First off and rightfully so... i wanted to highlight Devin Richard and his unwavering ability to speak to my soul through his writing... even if he knows or not.... he speaks the truth!  <br />
<br />
~ First of is " I heard the King ".... When I read this the first thing I thought was that its all too true that those who preach down to you about just cracking open a King James version bible and picking a random ( and often times vague ) passage are more often than not dusting theirs off on sunday morning when they hit the chuuch and can't really tell me or anyone else what God would say about any given situation.... <br />
<br />
  My whole point is that this piece is superb due to the fact it gushes forth with truth, thus sayeth yon noble christopher of East Houston.<br />
<br />
~The next one I wanna highlight is " Friendly Advice " .... Its a short, toi the point spill about how honesty and healing, though often seprated by the shallow- minded as being on opposite sides of the spectrum,  are really hand in hand when it comes to rectifying a problem on most any scale.  Note that his faith once again shows itself prominently and completes that circle.<br />
<br />
~Lastly, I will share with you a piece that could rile up the ignorant and shallow-minded within the first 10 words..... " Unjust ".<br />
<br />
   I wanna point out that this poem was written by a black man, so if it is simply beyond you to think that a black man can encourage and uplift his fellow man, no matter what color, then I suggest some overhauling of your personal views. This poem basically lays it out to where there are no feasible questions about what this world and everyone in it needs.  I second his motion of lifting up everyone around you... i mean.... tis the season is it not?  <br />
<br />
Anyhow, check out <a href="http://devinrichard.deviantart.com/">[link]</a> and open your mind up and take in what he giving you..... pure and raw knowledge.<br />
<br />
<br />
2)  The one, the only, Nick Mockoviak!!!  This guy is definitely outta the box on his designs..... let us explore shall we?<br />
<br />
~ " The Clash Of The Titans " is a great piece and a big step forward for nick..... he has shown promise in veering away from floating objects in space ( face it, we all do it ) by incorporating a background that follows the primitive nature of my two fave icons of reel and nintendo rampage fame, Godzilla and King Kong!!!  Its a fun piece and keeps me young.<br />
<br />
~ " The Dark Tower " is cool to me for a few reasons... first off.... he illustrated one of the greatest writers of all times work, and quite well I might add.... and I admire that cuz' I have been wanting to do that for the anne rice taltos book.... and if you have no clue of what I am talking about... go get it, its great!  Nonetheless.... nice work nick for being able to focus and do the back shadow and utilize the blacks in this pic!<br />
<br />
~ " Superman Ross Practice "  is a great work because it really stands out for the fact that Nick harnessed the hatching style in a reasonably similar sketch of the original..... its amazing to me that he could switch up the style of shadowing and still be as close to point as he was.... it looks great and besides that ALEX ROSS is the bees knees..... i could never hold his brush.<br />
<br />
Check out <a href="http://nickmockoviak.deviantart.com/">[link]</a> and show him some love..... he is getting better and better with every post.<br />
<br />
<br />
3) I have been commissioned to point out some faves of mine in wulfgarfs gallery...lemme give you all the run down on what i likes.... <br />
<br />
~  " Dwarf and hammer ".... well i like this piece alot because the pencils are solid and I love the effect the shading has... the cors aren't shabby either!<br />
<br />
~  " serpent king " .... this is an awesome piece cause its very intimidating and the green in his costume is very aesthetic!!!  great work man!<br />
<br />
~  " Goblin "  ..... i am quite simply a goblin-a-holic!!!!!!  its a great profile!<br />
<br />
<br />
Check out <a href="http://wulfgarf.deviantart.com/">[link]</a> , he has definitely got the mid evil art on lock!!!!!  I love it!!!<br />
<br />
<br />
4)  Next up is redlina... a stunning young beauty with a blossoming talent thats well on its' way!!!  Let us check out my faves from her gallery!!!!!<br />
<br />
~  " Spider-Man vs. Mercury " ..... i faved this piece due to the potential collision factor and the new spidey costume which i have been up in the air about... it makes me like it!!!!!!  great basic colors too!!!! It works well!<br />
<br />
~  " Voldekimi's Request " ..... this is a cool take on voldemort... ]]></description>

<br />
   I am still here and just wanted to inform those who were curious as to whether or not I was still drawing... and the answer is YES folks.... hard at work banging out the sequentials for the up coming Destyny issue from 12 comics and being brought to you by myself and Mike Brooks <a href="http://nickleboy.deviantart.com/">[link]</a> who is doing a fantastic job on the inks by the way.... go check him out and see what this guy has got going on!!!!  A shout to Nick, Rod, Mike, Adrian, M.C., Karah, Pierrin and all my other hooked deviants.... <br />

                <description><![CDATA[ So yeah here I am again and I am kinda sitting on my hands and wasting time.  I have the side of that thinks the next commission I pick up will put me over the top and then on the other hand,  there is that part of me that just wants to draw til' I can't feel my fingers sweating... <br />
<br />
  BUT the idea of getting alot for a little is like a littkle brother whom I can't keep outta my room while I try to get passed level three on Burgertime.  I guess what I am trying to convey is that I am trying like all-be to come up with some random yet superb pin-ups but the desire for fame and semi-fortune keeps festering in my head and I have to overcome that and just KEEP DRAWING!!!!  Who agrees?  teamwork: ]]></description>
