Into this world we're thrown.

I've been locked in my room again for the past few days - Making art, working, having fun, whatever you want to call it.

I've been listening to bands of my past recently - Silverchair, Nine Inch Nails, some AFI, Tool, and a few others.

From my heart to yours:

"The Meeting Place"

Medium: Illustrator and Photoshop

It is a visualization of the end of the old world.

"Friends."

Medium: Gouache on Illustration Board

The movement from the old world to the new, only few are spared.

Enjoy!

Right now, I'm listening to The Doors.

Love, Johnny

Some self-expressionism

Above, you see an image I took of my room, with various works of mine. Most of them you should be familiar with, [if you aren't, feel free to view the rest of my blog].

The image on the easel is a self-portrait I painted while listening to the album "Colors" by Between the Buried and Me. I gave myself a time limit, [the album length] and wanted to see what would come out of this experience.

Colors is an hour long album.

This was my first self-portrait I've painted since high school.

I don't really know what prompted me to do this, but I'm glad I did.

It helped me realize how much I have grown in the past few years.

I would first like to thank those of you who have helped me get to this point in my life.

I will never know how deep my love for art runs, but i plan to further investigate as I progress through life in this body.

I make art [music included] because of my limitless love for art.

I will continue to make art and music for the rest of my life.

I always hold a place in my heart for any and all words you may through my way.

Please understand, I mean absolutely no harm with any of my art or words.

I thank all of you who view my art, who support what I do, and who give it [and me] a chance.

I don't think I have to explain myself anymore.

You figure it out.

Until next time,

-Johnny.

I've got a lot more work to do...
