You treat 'em like an obligation, welcome to the occupation

This is a picture of my little brother Mitch when he was about 5 or so, I really don't remember. I was at my mom's house today and drew this between conference and dinner. It's not done yet but almost. He was probably the cutest kid ever, we're not sure what happened. Just kidding, I love you Mitch.
This one I drew last night at work. I was looking in a magazine (we aren't aloud to read books which severly pisses me off considering I couldn't care less what Britney Spears or anyone else is doing) and I saw this little boy in a Ralph Lauren ad. He is soooo cute I HAVE to have sons that look like this. He's like 4 and already rockin the sidebag, what a heartbreaker.
This is some building in Egypt. Obviously it is not even close to done, but maybe if I put it on here it will motivate me to actually finish it. We'll see.




Here I am again writing another blog only to satisfy the needs of my friends at work. It does nothing for me. After drawing a picture last night at work and being reminded yet again of my insufficient blog updating, I decided I should turn my blog into a place to post my artwork. I will also post it on my facebook but on here I can write a little about each one. That will be fun.



I really fast need to update on some recent occurrences. Jack's Mannequin's The Glass Passenger has fully lived up to it's expectation of taking over my life. I won't lie the first time I listened to it all the way through I was not hugely impressed. I, just as I felt with Everything In Transit, thought it was good and would like to listen to it again but wasn't necessarily blown out of the water. But just as any good relationship should, the feelings have grown with time (yes it's only been a week, but this is BYU town I don't feel out of place). Also the Tuesday before that Cold War Kids - Loyalty to Loyalty AND Kings of Leon - Only by the Night came out. I absolutely love both of those albums and am a little saddened that Jack's came out so quickly after these two. I really didn't have a good amount of time to fully love them and I'm clearly not taking Jack's out of the player soon. That's what running and my iPod Nathaniel on shuffle is for.
