I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me


this profile is dedicated to some of the talented & creative individuals from whom i draw inspiration,
as well as to my own artistic endeavors.
visit my blog to see & hear some of the bad-ass things my friends & i have been creating,
& be sure to subscribe or return often to check out the most current featured artists.
(i will frequently be on the lookout for more amazing people & artwork to be shamelessly pimped out & exposed in future blog entries, so feel free to nominate yourself or anyone else in need of a little attention.)
this is not my regular general-purpose social profile.
but this is:
myspace.com/jdub935 .
i'm a bit of a chameleon, & along with the ongoing identity crisis comes a tendency to dabble in a variety of styles & media. some of my very favorites are:
-painting
(mostly acrylic, but some oil & watercolor)
-ceramics
-multimedia sculpture & woodworking
-paper/collage/photomontage
-graphic design
-creative design & fabrication
(wearable fashion accessories & home decor items)
drawing, though, for as long as i can remember, has always been my weapon of choice.

i'm also very interested in fashion design, & my friend christan & i have some fantastic ideas, so hopefully someday soon we'll get to make awesome clothes/accessories & render the world a more visually acceptable place. we'll see.
current music playlist: songs that remind me of summer. (since it's like 100 degrees in austin these days.)
feel free to send me your suggestions for other summer-ish music. :)

My Interests

family, comedy, music, art, beef, makeup, any combination of the above.

I'd like to meet:

creative, insightful, amusing, artistic, &/or useful people. and anyone who wants to meet me & isn't terribly creepy or stupid, i suppose.

and alex grey. he's created some of the most beautiful things i've ever seen in my life.

Music:

thrice, my chemical romance, tool, muse, megadeth, the mars volta, sublime, green day, the killers, afi, bad religion, stephen lynch, prince, rage against the machine, reel big fish, lucid dementia, primus, sum 41, pink floyd, marilyn manson, no doubt, ween, social distortion, thrill kill kult, third eye blind, authority zero, the cure, the clash, violent femmes, nirvana, punk covers of awesome old songs, most mid-90's alternative.

Movies:



Television:

jeopardy!, fox 7 news, fuse, designer finals, fashion police, chain reaction, futurama, house, space ghost coast 2 coast, tim & eric's awesome show(great job!), the soup, weakest link, divine design by candice olsen, sealab, robot chicken, the family guy, the daily show, the colbert report, snl, the oblongs, just about everything on the fine living network, best week ever, steven's untitled rock show, fashion file

Books:

sure, why not? i prefer the celestine prophecy (and those that followed in the series), alex grey's sacred mirrors, anything by richard bach, encyclopaedia anatomica by taschen (a book you MUST take a gander at if you're at all interested in physiology or sculpture), and i'm a huge fan of books full of things like quotes or "great thoughts" or words of wisdom by various people.

Heroes:

my children, my family, and the amazing artists and musicians that have helped to set the scene for the story of my life
