There is a ton of activity going on in the Blueflynt camp. . .
You can’t see it: It’s just right below the surface. An entire army of gnomes, 10,000 strong, are working with me on some pretty big things. I can only give you a small glimpse of what we’re working on; the gnomes won’t let me say too much.
GROTTO MADRID: This is going to be huge. It has the possibility of taking over a decent segment of the (world’s) population. My good friend, Tylerhawx, and I have been hard a work on a project. It’s still in it’s infant stages but we love how it’s coming along. Details to come later. . .
BLUEFLYNT: I’m working on a new look for Blueflynt Creative. It’s gonna be sweet. I can’t wait to unveil it!
There are a couple of new jobs in the pipeline. I will show you what I’m working on as soon as I can. Easy my young padawans . . . the clients need to see the work before you!

Contrary to popular opinion, good art doesn’t just happen.
I don’t care who you are. Even instances where an artist will say that a top 40 hit “just came to me” or that a screenplay just “wrote itself,” that’s only part of the truth. A more robust picture of the truth would include the hours upon hours of practice and discipline required to develop the skill that allows for the occasional spontaneous combustion called “art.”
Practice weaves the canvas for great paintings to happen.
