GIRL-Shy

New Ebay listing. I was listening to the Prince tune "Shy" while painting it. Well, she has a little shyness about her at times.

GIRL-Banger

I've been doing the Ebay thing and searching for a new apartment at the same time, which really takes away from finishing my book. Add in all the running around that searching for an apartment requires and the exhaustion that follows and you have the makings of a book that will still take quite a while to finish.

Provided I live long enough.

Anybody speak russian?

At least I think it's russian. This was a comment on a piece at my deviant art page:

Клевая картинка!!! Люблю эти рисунки.

(а вы можете дать сайт где можно скачать еще такие картинки.)

I just hope it's something positive. I'd hate to be hated by one of our allies.

I'd almost forgotten about this. It's the last interview that I've done so far.

The Painting Process

I was going through some files and had forgotten that I'd scanned several paintings while I was painting them and caught the process in action. I'd never really thought of doing things like that, but I think I'll be doing it a lot more now.

It's a little time consuming, stopping to scan each step of a painting because I usually just like to get it done and move on to the next one. But looking back at them, I can see how I did them. Believe it or not, sometimes I forget what the hell I did during a painting to get the look that it has, which could be why my style changes over the years. It will still change, but it's kinda fun to look at these now.

GIRL-Red Jacket

Nothing much to write of lately, except how much i dislike the summer. Sweating from morning til night, and I hate to sweat-except during exercise, because I gotta. And having no air conditioner makes it worse. the fan I have has been working overtime, but doesn't prevent me from waking up on sweat soaked sheets. I know, it's disgusting. But, autumn is just around the corner. Good sleeping weather.

I've just been doing a ton of work to make some bread and keep working on the last GIRL book. A windfall of about 3 million dollars in my bank account would fix that and I'd have that book out by next spring. But, I do what I can.

And this week it's another Ebay listing. wish me luck.

King of Pop Michael Jackson is dead: report

By Bob Tourtellotte Bob Tourtellotte – 5 mins ago

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Michael Jackson, the child star turned King of Pop who set the world dancing to exuberant rhythms for decades, died on Thursday, the Los Angeles Times said. He was 50.

"Pop star Michael Jackson was pronounced dead by doctors this afternoon after arriving at a hospital in a deep coma, city and law enforcement sources told The Times," the newspaper reported on its website.

Jackson had been taken ill at his home and found not breathing by paramedics who rushed him to a hospital, the paper said.

The paper's report followed news of Jackson's death first reported by the TMZ entertainment website, which said that the singer suffered a cardiac arrest. There was no immediate comment from spokespersons for Jackson.

Known as the "King of Pop," for hits that included "Thriller" and "Billie Jean," Jackson's dramatic stage presence and innovative dance moves were imitated by legions of fans around the world.
His one-gloved eccentric style also earned him plenty of critics and another nickname, "Wacko Jacko."

Jackson, who had lived as a virtual recluse since his acquittal in 2005 on charges of child molestation, had been scheduled to launch a comeback tour from London next month.

TMZ said on its website that Jackson suffered a cardiac arrest on Thursday afternoon at his Holmby Hills home and paramedics were unable to revive him. "We're told when paramedics arrived Jackson had no pulse and they never got a pulse back," the site said.

Earlier, the Los Angeles Times said the singer had been rushed to a Los Angeles-area hospital by fire department paramedics. The newspaper said paramedics performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation at the singer's home before taking him to the UCLA Medical Center hospital.
COMEBACK CONCERTS

Jackson had been due to start a series of concerts in London on July 13 running until March 2010. The singer had been rehearsing in the Los Angeles area for the past two months.

The shows for the 50 London concerts sold out within minutes of going on sale in March.

His lifetime record sales tally is believed to be around 750 million, which, added to the 13 Grammy Awards he received, makes him one of the most successful entertainers of all time.

There were concerns about Jackson's health in recent years but the promoters of the London shows, AEG Live, said in March that Jackson had passed a 4-1/2 hour physical examination with independent doctors.

New Yorkers and tourists in the city's Times Square were shocked at the news of Jackson's death.

"I don't know what to say. It's sad, it's really, really sad," said Nicole Smith, an 18-year-old student from Brooklyn, New York, in Times Square. "My mother was a fan. I listened to his music."

"I'm shocked. I thought someone was lying to me when I first heard it. I was a fan from when he was a little boy and then he got weird," said Sue Sheider, 51, a teacher from Long Island.

CHILD STAR TO MEGASTAR

Jackson was born on August 29, 1958, in Gary, Indiana, the seventh of nine children. Five Jackson boys -- Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon and Michael -- first performed together at a talent show when Michael was 6. They walked off with first prize and went on to become a best-selling band, The Jackson Five, and then The Jackson 5.

Jackson made his first solo album in 1972, and released "Thriller" in 1982, which became a smash hit that yielded seven top-10 singles. The album sold 21 million copies in the United States and at least 27 million worldwide.

The next year, he unveiled his signature "moonwalk" dance move while performing "Billie Jean" during an NBC special.

In 1994, Jackson married Elvis Presley's only child, Lisa Marie, but the marriage ended in divorce in 1996. Jackson married Debbie Rowe the same year and had two children, before splitting in 1999. The couple never lived together.

Jackson has three children named Prince Michael I, Paris Michael and Prince Michael II, known for his brief public appearance when his father held him over the railing of a hotel balcony, causing widespread criticism.

Blast from the Past

I recently got back in touch with someone. A girl.

A girl I have not seen in over 20 years.



And I only use the term "girl" because she looks exactly how she did when I last saw her.

No-she actually looks better, and that's something I knew back then: that she would be one of those girls that would always look like she did.


I don't want to write her name just yet. We've only been reconnected as of April 24th, just over a week ago, and I just don't want to put that out there and jinx it. I've been flying high ever since and don't see myself coming down for a long time. I'd been looking for her all this time and she literally just popped back into my life, and now continues to drive me insane with her looks and charm and teasing. Damn, that's fun.

She's that girl that could always make me do anything she asked of me, because she knew how to make me weak when I wanted her, but made me strong when I needed her.



If anyone ever wondered where the Taylor Girl came from, it's her. And I won't post any photos of her. Probably not for a while-if she lets me. No way will I do that without her knowing and her consent. I'm not gonna risk losing her again. It's such a wonderful feeling being back in touch with her that I want to share it with everyone-but not just yet. I just want to keep her to myself for a while. And I'm sure many people know exactly what I mean.

When my heart-and everything else-comes down for a rest, maybe I'll put an update about it.

Then again, maybe not. I'm just taking it slow right now to study all the new feelings I'm being bombarded with because of her.

Some people get lucky with finding the person of their dreams.

I got lucky twice.

Another Ebay try.

Not much success with Ebay lately, but I'm giving it another try.I guess I've been out of the game a little too long.

I'm planning to do some cons and salons soon, so I'll post those showtimes as soon as I have some.
