commissions have been open forever, but i am running a special right now to stimulate my economy: 5x8 full color drawings of whatever you please, for 5 bucks.
your character, someone else's character, mr. t, kool-aid man, that hot chick you're stalking, make it crazy! i will go nuts on that piece of bristol board. note me if interested.

forgo a pack of smokes or fast food lunch in favor of some art! it's way healthier!


ALSO KIRIBANG. whoever gets pageview number 8888 gets some free arts of their choosing. as long as it's not real lame. i've got a rep to think about here u kno.

SO DON'T GO OVERBOARD, FUTURE ART RECEIVER!
and maybe make it blasphemouse! ahahahah i got it. i'll draw you a satanic mouse.
but if you want something eeeelse i guess i can do that too.

ps thanks all you deviants favoriting my junk and stalki-- watching my gallery! you. are nifty.



man, it'd be cool if people asking for tattoo designs would get back to me about em... maybe it's the fact i charge for it. shit. i don't charge if i'm DOING the tattoo, but i sure shit will charge otherwise. if i take the time, you pay the money. simple.
the only thing free in the world are your thoughts, and it's up for debate on how long that liberty will last.

i'm on vacation in CT for 10 (ten) days. i got here the 17th and it's been busybusy since! seeing my few close friends here have been so uplifting and refreshing; not having to work this whole time is cool too. the family drama aside, things is goooood. smokin, drinkin, drawin, relaxin.
sheila is about to pop!! she's so pregnant. i can't wait for little mia to come into the world; it's not much of a world to come into but there's lots of people who love her already. apparently she's due on my birthday! bitchen!!!

while i am here, i'm going to scan a bunch of crap. speaking of CRAP, i need to go through the rest of my stuff in the cellar and see just what i can take with me on my trip back...
because i'll need stuff to fill up MY NEW FRICKIN APARTMENT!!!! YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
nicole found an apartment in vincennes for the both of us and the excitement i feel is exquisite. it's only 370 a month, plus like, gas or something and we can PAINT THE WALLS HOWEVER WE WANT. murals, anyone?!?!? so. so. so. mgea-a-a-a----- sweet. it'll be awesome to live with a girl! a girl who is CLEAN and ORDERLY! ahhh. f'real kids, i'm really on my own now.

maybe i'm eligible for food stamps.

OH MAN I WISH. he has a turtle mouth! seriously!! look! [link]
i was even in a samuel k VIDEO BLOG! aka a VLOG for all you n00bers. click this link and watch us be weirdos! [link]
drew is a super b/f and i loves him to bits. chunky bits only a chainsaw can make satisfactorily. it'll be two months in december! cripes i've really been here that long? hot DOG.
i am not making money at my job, but tattoo apprenticeship is not known to be a lucrative career move. i'm lucky i don't have to pay THEM. the shop owners may and doc have a different contract in which the tuition for the apprenticeship basically pays for itself. i love working there, i love my coworkers, and they usually feed my fat ass. it's perdy sweet cept for the whole not making money thing.
so instead i've taken on a ton of commissions through sam's mom. they're not too difficult, just realistic portraits at 25 bucks a pop plus 10 for every extra subject. i'm expecting to make around 500 bucks with that which is more moeny than i've ever earned for anything art-related.

ONTO THE MIMI
one. first 10 dookieshooters to respond will have my 3three favorites pieces picked out their galleries and get their own little feature here in my jernul.
two. say anything ya want. don't want a fabulous feature? THEN SHUT UP.
three. if you do pipe up, you should try and do the same in yer jernul or this mimi wouldn't really be a mimi, would it?

so yeah. at the end of july i got kicked of this house in harwinton. i don't deal well with being told i have to wait three plus years with no job, no income, and no way to further my art "career" in a place that's seven fucking miles from anywhere, or with being a free babysitter for ANOTHER three years. i stayed with my friends sheila and ed back in the good ol dirty water for a little over a month, missing otakon, and searching for a job pretty much every day. since they live in the ghetto right behind the mall, it wasn't difficult to look. the difficult part was actually AQUIRING the job. possible employers don't really like to see a 19-year-old that's never had a damn job before. ironic that when i finally land a job interview, ed's miserable bed-ridden tobacco-addict father throws a cripple-fit and BAM i'm homeless. i wasn't being a nuisance, or a drain, or anything like that to them, but what paul wants, paul fucken gets. when he's rotting away in a shitty nursing home, screaming for a cigarette to no one, i'm going to write him letters with nothing but HA HA HA HA HA CRIPPLE in them.
my brothers let me stay in their apartment for about a week, from the 5th to the 11th. i washed their dishes and scrubbed their bathroom. i couldn't stay there, though. so i plotted with samuel k. EVIL plotting, as if there was any other kind. basically he says it's cool if i live with him in indiana! GLEEEE. of course, getting there is the problem. i don't have any money, i'm stuck back in harwinton and mother dearest is being flaky on the whole subject of helping me, but relentless on telling me to get out. if i had the money i'd've split town already. the setbacks keep rolling in.
maybe i should just ride the rails, hobo-style, with nothing but a flask of whiskey and a bindle full of vittles and a glimmer of hope in my bleary eye? how romantic. ]]> ~koanodan http://koanodan.deviantart.com/journal/9259098/ http://koanodan.deviantart.com/journal/9259098/ Mon, 03 Jul 2006 09:36:29 PDT here is an update about my current situation, if you care to know (and you don't!)
i've nearly finished moving into my mother's fiancee jeff's new house in harwinton, which is still in connecticut, but much more hick-ish. or maybe just more wealthy, which explains why everyone owns at least 3 horses (and some sheep, too). i'm going to get friendly with those people, maybe they'll let me pet their horsies.
my room, or as i lovingly refer to it, "the dungeon", is in the unfinished basement. cold stone floor, cold stone walls. it's awesome. i even like the old musty smell of it. there's only one teeny window that lets almost no light in, so it always feels like it's the middle of the night. the computer is totally mine now and set up down here, and gracious jeff got HIGH-SPEED INTERNET!!!!!!!!!
yeah, it may make most of you jaded hi-speeders yawn and say "what's tha big deal son??" but after seven years of dialup (seven??? jesus i am getting old) i cannot even begin to describe my joy at having pages load in the blink of an eye, songs downloaded in under a minute, and the fact that i am no longer a slave to AOL!!! i can talk on the phone and surf the innernards simutaneously! aaahhh, PRAISE BE AMEN!!! it's... it's gorgeousity made internet. it also means i can finally look at and comment on awesome art on several different galleries that i participate in! even this one hoshiiit! yeah, i could do it before, but it was such a pain in the ass to wait for pictures to load... ugh.
my mother even found a job for me in the local newspaper -- gluing together and painting crafts and shit for some company. i don't even gotta go anyplace, they send it right to the house. ain't that the proverbial shit?

now i just have to get the rest of my crap here, like... my bed. though that brown leather couch upstairs is more comfortable than it. and hey, does anyone have a cheap desk they want to sell to me? i'm still in desperate need of one. kitchen tables ain't cuttin' it anymore. ]]> ~koanodan http://koanodan.deviantart.com/journal/8643481/ http://koanodan.deviantart.com/journal/8643481/ Mon, 01 May 2006 16:21:42 PDT HELL IS IT ALREADY MAY??
this decade is going by too fast.

and hay! i'm in genuine need of money, and can't (really, CAN'T) get a job in my current family situation because i have to watch my handicapped brother almost every day -- so i'm open to commissions. i'll draw just about anything, MEANING YES I'LL DRAW PORN. i enjoy drawing it! ohwait except furreporn. sorry. but i will draw a furre in a non-sexual manner!
if you're interested, fling me a PM and we'll discuss all the essential hootenanny that way. it would be extremely appreciated and all of my best effort will go into your drawing. a thousand thanks!

music: are pregnant?!

lifetime, channel of my nightmares, just produced something i thought would stay in the dark hallways of my brain forever. the GOLDEN GIRLS WITH CHILD. sophia's cooch is a baby coffin, not a baby chute! augh! and cheech marin guest starred on it? must be to get at that mega-bitchen bea arthur. (he's probably already had the whore one.) what crazy geriatric antics will the biddies get into next?!!

anyway otakon was gay though meeting becky for the second time was awesome. and i got to say more than two words to her! SHE SAID I WAS COOL!!! becky, you sweet talkin comic queen. at the tokyopop presentation i drew her a powar metaller, complete with unsheathed sword and furry loincloth. she drew me a mulleted black metal kid after a discussion about black metal. everyone has their secret indulgences! but dimmu borgir?! ahhh. scream of horror. whenever she sees a black metal kid, she always thinks "oh dani!" (as in dani filth, of cradle of filth reknown. such an appropriate description of their music, eh?) and wrote that in kickass tat lettering across the kid's shirt.
YESS, I WILL GIVE FREE TATTOOS!!!! if yer willing to make way to maryland to be meat and i like you, you'll get a free and/or reduced price tattoo, much like lunch at school! minus the long paperwork. just sign a waiver and you get skin inks.
there was no table this year, so no prints were sold like i had so hoped and dreamed and cried over. not really. but we've got ANGELA, a hyperactive japanese girl who will set all the business stuff up for us business-unsavvy artists whose creativity blocks all sense. anyWAY, hopefully next year will be better, so i don't have to wander around slack-jawed in oceans of bed cosplaying fat otaku. believe me, it alters your world perspective in cruel ways. not to say it all sucked. the hotel, as always, was the best part, but made even better by the presence of BOOZE. the first night, there was a bit of absente (absinthe refined, how elegantly goth!), and the third we partied with ol granddad and captain morgan! oh, how wonderful. shelbers got drunk for the first time ever (20 and never drunk? a foreign concept) and grrrr sarah i need to talk to sarah about some of the shit she pulled.
carey laughed at nearly EVERYTHING i said, angela was high-strung but cool and katcho looks like frank zappa, has prettyhair and is very effeminite so he gets +1897498345 cool points. you'd think getting 5 artists in one room would get them to drawing, but as i've discovered, artists are lax, lazy individuals who, when together, will merely talk about art and blather on about nerdy, art faggoty things than actually DO it. we produced ONE sketchsheet. my doodles were drunk visuals of how much i like booze. i should scan it, along with a bunch of other shit. but god right now i'm so tired from my day of picking up putrid trash on the sides of the roads in h20bury that i need a coma, so i can up tomorrow and do it against for the last fucking time. HOORAY! SLEEP! I LOVE THINGS!!
more later ]]> ~koanodan http://koanodan.deviantart.com/journal/6213760/ http://koanodan.deviantart.com/journal/6213760/ Sat, 13 Aug 2005 05:44:34 PDT please sarah don't leave me at the station...!!!!

howeveR, meeting more band members would be exciting. bruno from the homosexuals had a delightfully british accent and calming demeanor when i was crying hysterically. ahhh, my cloud had an english lining! or. my guardian angel likes fish n chips? i dunno.

ON A FINAL NOTE. since i took the splint off i'll be doing more.. "arte" maybe. maybe. there is so much emphasis on that word it's probably only funny to the french. ]]> ~koanodan http://koanodan.deviantart.com/journal/6124492/ http://koanodan.deviantart.com/journal/6124492/ Wed, 03 Aug 2005 16:32:46 PDT
now if only people could get as cut-throat and riled up about local politics as this jark shit. if dA went down, no one would die; you'd lose a community, sure, but it's not as though your life is ruined. it's a interweb posting place. however, if your city decided to privitize local water sources by voting on it, and no one voted against it, guess what would happen? you'd be paying for fucking tap water. six bucks everytime you flush the porcelain pot! pasta would be so expensive to make from all that wasted water you wouldn't MIND being anally raped pricewise every time you walk into an olive garden! people would stop showering, and thus increase in body odor (especially india) would pollute the air and add to that mysterious greenhouse effect, causing massive ozone depletion and global warming. the ocean would continually rise due to melting ice caps and soon there would be a world-wide atlantis. and all because people couldn't stop bitching about why jark got fired.
to be honest i have no opinion, just tasty apathy as lauren so beautifully put it. and i don't care if that makes me look like a dirty hippie. those long hairs arent just good for target partice you know. ]]> ~koanodan http://koanodan.deviantart.com/journal/5939459/ http://koanodan.deviantart.com/journal/5939459/ Fri, 15 Jul 2005 05:37:07 PDT

Mood: yeah right
Listening to: exploited - jesus is dead

shannon hoon, you must have been on something GOOD to write that.

i lost my website on the tenth, and the next day i broke the fifth metacarpal in my right hand (that's hospital-jive for i snapped the pinky bone in my hand, NOT THE FINGER, but all you aspiring artists should know that) punching my sister in the head over a stupid argument. but hell, when i get knives thrown at me, i react.
not in the smartest or healthiest of ways but still.
it's still not casted, and i've taken to bitching and snapping ferociously.
mom: "how many hamburgers do you want danielle?"
me: "the kind that are made of plaster and wrap around my hand!!"
judging by the greenish-gray covering most of my hand, i've come to the conclusion that i am indeed turning into a martian. the kind without noseholes though.
i really want some goddamned percocets.


and please tell me i'm not the only one disgusted by the new willy wonka movie. johnny depp looks like a slimy child molester. who needs to wipe the drool and spit off his mouth. ugh.

remaining days in bad mood: 6-8 weeks
