Jams for days

Aly and her friends went to a free Danger Radio show at the old Redmond Firehouse and were introduced to Bekker. The band is named after it's lead singer, Matt Bekker. I would say their music is really relaxing and is usually about love and life. They're very local, so you should go see them sometime. Anyways, this song is called Empty, enjoy.


PS. Check em out on Myspace. http://myspace.com/mattbekker

Jams for days

When I don't know what to write about, I'm gonna post my favorite songs for no reason haha

After Tonight-Justin Nozuka. I discovered him one late night at Atafeh's house. She was asleep and I was listening to the videos on VH1, when an angel serenaded me.

Nudity

I'm not gonna lie, I love tasteful nudity. I've been trying very hard to sketch women with no clothes on forever, but I can never get the hips/thighs right. I don't know what it is, I think we as women are all beautiful and I wish I could capture it as a photographer would capture something they see. I also love drawing hair. Especially when it's in motion like this chick. Even though it's out of focus, I can dig it. I love sketching the pictures in the Urban Outfitters catalog. The clothes and the people are awesome to look at. I don't consider myself to be artsy, but I do like to sketch. My favorite medium is charcoal pencils and sketching pencils. I've tried acrylics, pastels, and colored pencils....they're just not for me.
