I've been watching you on deviantART. You've been doing some really creative stuff! How have you been?

yeah pretty depressing.
Most people still try to compensate us with exposure. I wonder if they pay their rent with exposure.

Don't take the "Free" jobs..... then the in-experienced ones will do the job in twice the time and.... annoy everyone involved.... If they can't pay my rate then I don't do the job! That's when you know your an Artist!

Oooo No I hadn't heard of that but it does sound like good fun! I'll share it around.
Has anybody checked out the Graffiti Warehouse events in Baltimore, MD? I haven't been but it seems like a cool concept. I was wondering if anyone could testify whether or not it would be worth the 2 hour drive for me.
I noticed in their latest event posting that they are now holding Body Paint Workshops every 1st Saturday.

LOL I'm just an artist but I am seriously considering going out for the Thrown Weapons Marshal training this summer. The boyfriend has been trying really hard to get a sword and board in my hands too.
