Open Call For Artists: Miami

So the wonderful people at the Miami Science Museum have formally announced that they will have a new exhibit featured in the museum in the next month. The exhibit, known as "Music Musica" is going to be quite a venue in Miami as it focuses on the influences of Latinos on music today.

In honor of this new exhibit, the museum has opened up a contest to all artists in the Miami area to submit a design idea for the official event poster.

the story of the hurricane.......



I f'ing hate hurricanes. It's not that I'm scarred to death of the crazy wind r intense storms, I just hate the befor and after part. You have to reorganize EVERYTHING so you don't run the risk of adding to the potential projectiles around your house, and then the after - despite the fact that everything around you is completely f'd up, you then have to clean shit up. And if the power went out, as it usually does, no lights, tv, computer, photoshop, to use all that free time on. It's candles, cold showers and shaving in the dark. Man that sucks.

So hurricane IKE may be paying south florida a visit. Or not. it changes every 5 minutes. 

See for yourself: 

Let's see how that goes.

As for something completely random, I found a video of myself and a past colleague, now just a friend, giving a demonstration on digital communications at last year's Americas Conference at the Biltmore hotel in Coral Gables, FL. It's pretty funny. I'm a tool. And it was when I was starting to grow my hair out:



And now on to the art.

PROGRESS!!!!!!!!!

This is a quick post - just wanted to put a few pages I've developed over the long weekend - I'm finally finding a groove to start putting my pages together. I have to admit, it's quite tasking when it's by yourself. In fact, look at how cheap they look - no shading. I hate that there are no shades.

I may just go with black and white to hide how shitty my coloring job is.........we'll see.





Actually that last one was made to celebrate y 5,ooo+ page views on deviantart. Check it out at: http://marinsstudio.deviantart.com
