2011-09-08T03:11:00.001-07:00

Richard "Steelo" Vazquez (Groovaloos, LXD, Killafornia) recently underwent surgery due to a ruptured brain aneurysm. His family (wife Penelope and 1 year old son Elijah) need our help. Steelo is thankfully in recovery after a lengthy surgery, but will be unable to work for some time and with a baby and wife, they need the communities support right now.

Whoa!!! Long time no blog, eh?! Apologies, I'll try to be more on top of things!! Anyways, here's the deal...

I'm involved in this "Sketchbook Project" thing where they give me a lil sketchbook, I draw in it, and it does a tour around the country, its final destination being in the Brooklyn Art Library's permanent collection! Each sketchbook has a theme. Mine happens to be "Nightmare."

Here's where YOU come in...I would like very much to have this book not just be about me, but about everybody!! Everybody deserves to shine!! So post up your ideas and if I use it, I give you credit for your idea and that way YOUR name tours the country too!!! and OF COURSE, I'll send you a scanned copy of the drawing!!!

C'mon!! Your name seen all over the country AND original artwork?! pssshhh!!! Win/Win!! The due date for the book is January 10, so keep me busy this winter break, start posting!!!

Consider this my Xmas present to yall!!!

so...i'm new to this bloggin business....so bare with me. hopefully nobody is bothered by the fact that i don't always use capital letters or perfect grammar nor spelling. i figured this may be the best way to promote things i have going on since i cannot always update my website.

yesterday was my birthday (thank you). this passed weekend was the first annual LONG BEACH COMIC CON. i had a great time in my booth, and for the first time, i actually felt like a professional!! haha...even had a few fans that were actually there to see me (big ups!)...

my next con i'll (hopefully) be at is next month at the SD QUARTER COMIC CON in san diego(duh). more info to come as soon as i find out!haha...in the meantime, have a great day!

till next time!
