Invasion Part 1 & Part 2

Happy New Year!!!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and I hope everyones 2009 is soo0 much better than 2008.

Okay, now that I got that out of the way. I want to talk about a series I started this summer. I haven't had time to post anything so here it is.

This new series (all drawings so far) is called "Invasion".

Here are the first two:

I am currently working on 2-3 more in Invasion pieces. I will continue to post this series as I finish the art.

Feel free to let me know what you think.

Cheers and Be safe!

Merry Christmas!

Well here it is my Christmas card to the world! I hope your year was as good as it could have been and if it could have been better, grab a pen and paper and starting taking notes to improve your 2009!

I had a great 2008. I didn't do as much art as I wanted to but I have a plan and I feel I am on track. I got a lot accomplished and I had a lot of fun. I spent a lot of time with my amazing and beautiful girl friend and if I could go back and relive 2008 I wouldn't change a thing!

Now, 2009 should be an interesting one. We will have a new president in office (I truly hope he can do some good), Go Green (I think that our world will work even harder at trying to minimize waste and utilize what we do have) A good company to check out is www.simpleshoes.com They are creating shoes out of hemp, reusing bike & car tires, organic cotton and other materials. They are doing some really cool things over there and you should check them out if you need a new pair of shoes or a comfortable pair of thongs (sandals). 

Okay, so what was I talking about again? Oh yeah, I plan on painting and drawing a whole lot more in 2009. I also want to put some art in some galleries and possibly some fairs.

What do you want to do in 2009? Let me know when you have the chance.

Till next time.

Cheers!

Mito Action

By now most of you know that my sister has Mitochondrial Disease. This is unfortunate and we (family and friends) are trying to make life easier for her while research is being done to find a cure.

What you don't know is that I started helping out a non-profit organization called Mito Action.

These people are provide a great service for people with Mitochondrial Disease. They help provide support and information to help people cope with the disease while the doctors are trying to cure it.

I decided to offer my services and play a small role in the grand scheme of things. Since 2005 I have created a logo for a tote bag, a 3'x3' Oil painting on Canvas for a fundraiser in 2006 and in 2007 I created some posters and a logo (see above) which has since been changed into the Identity of Mito Action as well as other various marketing media.

If you happen to stumble upon a large roll of green bills and are feeling generous stop by the Mito Action web site and lend a hand.

I thank you for your support as does my entire family and I hope you all enjoy the summer!

Cheers,

-Mike
