Korea; The Battle of ART ACHE Ridge.

A few things:

One: Does anyone know how to read Korean? I will be featured in the February issue of ELLEgirl Korea and they are sending me a copy of the magazine so I can check it out...but obviously I will have no idea what it truly says. I did the interview, sent the images and the bio...but who knows what they will really write about me. I have some other things going on with ELLE Korea, but that is for another time. I'll post a scan of the article when I receive the issue in the mail.

Two: I updated my website. Moved some things around, added some images, updated my info, etc...

Three: Any designer want to help a guy out with building a NEW website? I am getting bored of the one I have and I think it would be nice to have a designer help me out with a fresh one. I am a minimalist when it comes to design, as you may be able to tell from my current website, and I would like to keep that same feel. Just more refined and smoothed out with maybe a drop down menu here and there. I don't have any flow to drop on this, but I would be forever indebted and I could possibly throw some art your way as payment? And of course you would have a nice new portfolio / promotional piece as well. Hit me up!

Four: Dearling Physique is getting ramped up and ready to release the "Impressions Of The Night" EP digitally on February 21st. The physical release will come shortly thereafter. The artwork will be slightly different for each release. I'm approaching the finish line for this project and it's getting pretty exciting. From what I've heard of the rough mixes it's pretty dope...all 'n all it's coming together very nicely.

Lastly (but not leastly? huh?): Grain Belt show! I'll be in it! You should come see! Poster and press release below!

why not redo your site yourself? you could figure that shit out. makes for good practice.

i wonder if there will be free grain belt at the gallery. you know that's my favorite part about art.

i think it would be nice to work with a designer...dunno...i always get stuck creating the same thing...i need some fresh blood and some new knowledge. if no one is willing to help me out, then i will look into it.

free grain belt is almost a definite yes. booze for sure.

Hey Jesse! Let me know when you get the article up and I'll translate it to the best of my ability.

Glad to see you are doing good things with your art!
