HELL YES. I got the Indiana Arts Commission Grant. The $2,000 from that will pay for all the supplies to complete The Message, plus get me a new iMac. I'm presently working on another grant for $20,000 (yes, twenty thousand) to work on 2 series of drawings based on the Monkey King, and Peace Cranes. Travel to China, Japan, and supplies for the series. It's due at the end of the month, so rest assured I won't be doing much art between now and then, aside from a couple surprises for the Wizard World Comic Book Convention in Chicago. The picture above is a celebratory self portrait. Where am I? At Peppy Grill, of course!
