That's right, this shitty economy finally oozed it's way into to confines of my office. Needless to say, I feel deeply wounded by this unfortunately turn of events...

On the brighter side though, this really lights a fire under me to do more creative work and if anybody is interested in commissions and wants work done, please contact me at SilverLimit@gmail.com and I'll get you a quote! Thanks again for stopping by and I sincerely appreciate all who come to see my humble little gallery. Good luck out there and god bless! :)

Hey Everybody!

It's been a while since my last journal entry, (just realized I only had one journal post for all of 2008!) so I thought I'd drop by and update this bad boy.

Things are going decently for me at the moment. I'm still doing the art thing at Highwire, but I'm currently looking to go back to school soon as well so I can gear my future career towards the kinds of creative projects that leave me feeling a bit more...fulfilled. I'm just thankful to have a job in these uncertain times though, honestly.

On the deviation side of things, I know my gallery suffered a serious dry-spell in '08. There's a number of excuses for this (some BS, some legitimate), but I just want to let you all know that it wasn't due a lack of drawing so much as a lack of FINISHING that kept art from going up. I've still been drawing some nifty stuff, just nothing that really made it through to completion. I've resolved to correct this for '09, so I'm going to attempt to post at LEAST one to two deviations a month, and hopefully more :)

Finally, I just wanted to say thanks again to everyone who still stops by to check out this place. I love you all and appreciate your criticism and encouragement! I've had this gallery now for nearly 5 years and it still gives me motivation just to hear what you have to say :)

...ever the optimist and ready for change ( yes, I voted Obama ;) )

Hey all. It's been around 6 months since my last journal post, so I thought I'd give an update to assure you all I'm still living.

  Anywho, I've been getting a lot of questions about the shirts. Yeah, I know the links are dead now. Due to the way Amazon works, I was limited to the amount of time I could keep them up. Sadly, in that short time span, nobody really gave them notice and continuing to list them would have eventually outweighed the cost of selling them. I still have them though, so if anybody knows of a better way to build a storefront, I'm all ears!

  In other news, things have been going pretty well for me career-wise. Been doing a lot of overtime work at my job. The company I work for just over went new management and I received a raise along with tons more creative freedom. We'll have a website up soon with some of the samples I've designed as well as some pics of me doing the art thing. The best part of it all is they gave me a bad-ass G5 Quad with killer specs to take home for personal use. This means I'll be able to dabble in those processor-intensive tasks like photoshop-painting and 3D applications without slowdown (wahoo!)

All in all, 08's looking offer tons of opportunity for productivity! Stay tuned :)

On a side note, I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who still comes around here and throws down their two cents. I feel a lot of gratitude towards you guys. I know I go through dry spells sometimes, so thanks again for sticking around ;)

We're open for business!



Well, Silver Sanctum Design is finally up and running and I am now carrying a small inventory of screen printed tees!

  Currently, the waters are being tested for how to best sell these online. I'm using eBay at the moment for the sake of convenience, and should be able to have a fully decked-out eBay store going here soon once I get enough positive feedback.

  As a small tester, I'm offering the Armored Angel, screened in white on black girl tees! They only come in small, medium, and large at the moment. Should these do well, more varieties will become available online shortly!

They're for sale: here!

Also, the 7th Street Gifts art fair has come and gone. If you want to see shots of my booth as well as other event madness, check it out here!
