| | Burial:archangel | ] | So my last entry was July 2006
To recap the last two years would be lackluster. Right now I am loving Chicago Autumn. I am surrounded by good friends, in love, good job...im set! Just thought I would stop by and say hi to old friends. I am keeping up my art galleries on my myspace page (username:telegrafixs)so stop on by and friend request me if you get the chance.
Peace, love and warmth -Tim

My last day of HardRock was lackluster. I did not get creamed in the face. One by one people faded till only me and a small asian friend went out for a drink after wards. Shenanigans arose and we ended up the night swimming in belmont harbor among some old friends,slimy rocks and a man that appeared with no shirt but plenty of mardi gras beads.I believe in a drunken state he had wandered away from the gaygames being held a mile away at wrigley field. It was so dark that unfortunately we were notified of his presence when he found my straight friend mark, changing out of his bathing suit behind a tree.
I am in the middle of a weeks vacation before i start my Bradford job on monday. Ive spent it on alcoholic binges, Ikea sprees, and hoochi coochi girls. All have left me feeling empty inside.
Im currently at home, thinking it would be warm and nostalgic to spend 3 or 4 days at home with the family. I arrived at 1pm and since then i have eaten 5 times and taken 3 naps. Its true.. ....you can NEVER go home.I cant wait till im back in my dirty hateful city, with my ignoring boyfriend and cynical friends.
Since i have all this time to blow,I thought I would throw a fistfull of recent sketches atcha..

I awake from a hangover...few faint memories of a rainbow parade flash through my head. Half a veggie burger at my side. I decide to decorate the house. How homosexual of me.
Added fishies to my lamp and put up some toys


Hung mi VooDoo Dolls <3

Stole a giant Disco ball from Hardrock and added some strange stuffed animals from the thrift store.

Then used the old chicken pez dispenser on a color 11+17 scanner with mini discs boarding it on your bathroom door.......trick

| | NONE COS MY FUCKING IPODS IS IN THE GHETTO SOMEWHERE | ] | So after getting to work and finding my locker broken into, then buying new work shoes and pants...i get mugged.
Not your average mugging...full on tag team, choked, stabbed in the back with "something" thrown on the ground mugged. They didnt get much cash, but they got my photo ipod which has been my pride and joy over the last month. They grabbed my bag which had my new work clothes in it and i flipped out and screamed.. GIVE ME MY FUCKING UNIFORMMMMMM!! so they ditched it down the alley a few yards away.Nice boys. It was so stressful that i immediately needed a cigarette, so i reached down and realized they had taken those too. THAT was the last straw.
Ive been practicing matrix trinity moves in my undies all night in case we meet again.
Im trying not to think about it but it destroyed my weekend...either they stole my keys, or i lost them in the fight...so now i cant go to the gym which has been good relaxation lately...and i cant pick up jocelyn from the Airport tomorrow. So i will be taking a 2.5 hour cta Ride with tons of luggage.fantastic.
Anyway...sketch of the day 6/16/06

Ive since turned 24, and treated myself to a ipodPHOTO. I was throwing new artwork and old photos on it in came across this.
 It was taken at a parade last summer. I must have been tooootally trashed seeing that i had transformed into a irrecongnizable fratboy, and the fact that im drinking BUSH LIGHT of all things while walking down a public street...god bless me.
Then i realized i never posted any pictures of my Road trip to California last summer...so here ya go old Faithful

[Mar. 25th, 2006|01:17 pm] |
***************Boys********************** Me & My Boyfriend of "almost" 2 years broke up. We have been trying to salvage it every few days but it has turned into train wreck after train wreck. Things are horrible, but we keep trying to float it. Do whatever we can to stay in this mundane stale relationship. This song by the Flaming lips, although simple & cheesy, made me think about how im wasting time forcing something that isnt going to happen.
EGO TRIPPIN AT THE GATES OF HELL I was waiting on the moment, But the moment never came All the billion other moments, Were just slipping all away. (I must have been drifting) (Just ego tripping) I was wanting you to love me But your love it never came. All the other love around me Was just wasting all away.
So i think im going to call this Sean boy who has been hunting me the last 6 months or so. He is cute loaded, extremely smart, and 1 month away from being a lawyer....very different from Donny.
****************Work************************ Im 23 years old and 2 weeks ago became 100% self sufficient. No CreditCard-School loan-Medical help from the parents. Something i should have accomplished long ago....just the school loans cut me deep. So in effort to raise a few extra bucks on the side im trying to start a childrens portraits company. Im posting flyers around the city. $200 bucks get you the original portrait, 2 pages of high quality prints "your choice of sizes" as well as a CD with a file sharing copy and a 300dpi version so you can print it out on photo paper for yourself.
Here are a few samples, The first baby is my Co-workers marzettes. The second is my nephew Justin. They seem to get big reactions out of people, specially mothers. Its funny because people are so impressed with realism, which is the easiest and most boring thing for me...i could spend weeks on a black and white drawing that is well designed and crafted but as soon as you do some photorealistic shit that every semi-trained artist should be able to do, people flip.

Im also In the process of finding local tattoo shops to intern at. After years and years of people telling me i should tattoo artist, i thought to myself.....maybe i actually can. Something about tattoo artists intimidate me, ill just have to learn to ignore them the same as i do customers at my work.
***************Life*************************** After a 10 consecutive days of bars, I told myself i have a problem. 3 nights ago i smoked a pack in 3 hours...3 fucking hours. So Ive banned bars for 2 weeks. Im on day 3, and have been pretty successful, although im finding it hard to fall asleep when im not trashed. Ive only smoked 4 cigarett a day...not a impressive lifestyle but its a start. |

If your interested in coming Email me at Telegrafixs@yahoo.com ill send you all the info. Its in the south loop 6-to midnight esq. Usually lots o free booze
Ultraviolet sucked....but the chick is hot. There is a scene where someone tries to spit in her face and she blocks it with her hand, then slaps the bastard back with his own loogie on her hand........I cannot express how much i want someone to try and spit at me today.
Today's drawing of the day is of a monkey giving birth to weird ball creature babies. I need to start doing work with meaning
 Speaking of ART, i just discovered the BLICK store downtown yesterday!!!!!!!! I am fucking amazed, soooo much better and cheaper than Pearl.

What is a Popper?
I keep hearing this word....mostly on BET when guys are staring at crazy jiggling bootayyys, but ive heard people say it on the streets as well. Like "shes a popper" or "he is into poppers" I originally thought it was something along the lines of "pop that ass" or "pill popping"
Im having a gallery show this saturday night in the south loop. Its a silent auction, the curator said she is pretty sure she will get me over a thousand "crosses fingers"

you know who you are.
.................................................. Anyway, art jobs are booming! My Hard Rock Cafe Pins for Jan, Feb, March are out! $13.99 each. They open up like lockets, but i guess youll have to buy them to find out whats inside.WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


 They Changed my original designs alittle as you can see. The designs for September and July are gonna kick ass though.
Im going through Hardrocks BIGIDEA program to revamp the kids menu in Adobe Illustrator. The HeadHoncho of all the hardrocks in the world is in Chicago for the next few days...i showed him some plans and he seemed genuinely interested. cross yo fingers.
Also i was offered a illustration job doing simple yet realistic drawing for book that tell stories for children who are to "slow" to ever read. Its alot of work for not alot of pay....im still debating..but it would be interesting to try. |

| | The Cure-Lovesong | ] | Dude, I am Retardo Commando....after 3 years i JUST clicked on "richtextmode" and realized how you guys are changing your font color and size.
Anyway Ive been forcing myself to apply to 4 jobs a day for the last week. It has been pretty fruitless. Finally this came from www.startmobile.com. Basically im selling my artwork for cell phone wallpaper, i only get 33 cents a download. I am more excited about making it onto the site, the majority of the artists on there have been featured in juxtapoz and are wayyyy outta my leauge.
************************e-mail**************************
Sorry for the delay. The weeks after launch were pretty hectic,
and we received hundreds of submissions. Just getting through
them tonight. Most did not make the cut.
Yours did!
I really like your work.
And congrats! We are accepting less than 1% of new applicants.
....any questions, let me know!
So now all i gotta do is write a bio and pick out and format 10 drawings that would look good cell phone size....i may make a poll for it in livejournal. I want to see what you people would buy and what you would not
Marci came over yesterday and we were supposed to cook a big dinner and look for jobs online...but somehow we got side tracked and took 60MG of aderol each! crazy crazy crazy. My mom called and said she was in the city and going to MoodyBibleInstitute for a church service that her sister was in. Being cracked out, we jumped at the chance to go to church...met them...and proceeded drip sweat during the entire 2 hour sermon, i was litterally soaking...i saw marci eat four pieces of gum in a row. It was horrible...i felt my heart pounding everywhere in my body like it was about to blow up like a bomb...and the minister wouldnt stop talking about "meeting the maker"
You think that would stop us from taking the stuff ever again, but we then proceeded to come home and crush up another 30MG and snort it up our nose...not as scary as i thought it would be. Needless to say i spent from 1:30am to 7 am looking at porn and smoking cigarettes. It is now 12:47pm on tuesday and im eating for the first time since 6 pm sunday. How could anyone be prescribed that shit?!
