Latino Taxes?

On my drive home today I saw a tax services called "Latino Taxes", I didn't know what to make of it. Does it mean that Latinos pay according to different tax codes? or is it just a lame gimmick for a Spanish language speaking business?
I need to learn to speak Latin.
on an unrelated note, here is a drawing i did awhile ago.





post script: i added a drawing in progress image at the bottom of this page, its too small to see properly, but i will post it when its done.

new post- limitations.

This is BUGCLOPS!!!
I will post a colored version soon enough.
Limitations, tonight I face my two favorite limitations, time and ability. Time, is a sore point with me, I feel like wasted eight years watching TeeVee on a friend's couch. Sure I have a decent stored knowledge of trivial facts and the ability to take perverse pleasure in the inane, but I now doubt it was a fair trade. I regret not having the grit to stick with drawing my whole waking life. Being so long in the tooth as I see more time slip past, so encrusted in dust and din, still in a moving river. whoa, that was too poetic for my tastes.
ability.
Ability is a flux of frustration and amazement, I guess this is the ebb and flow I mentioned so long ago. Tonight I faced a wall as my skill with a pencil struggle to cross over into ink and brush, which I do love to use. Ink and brush give a wonderful joy that is way too nerdy to describe, magical. I have to just understand that I will have to slowing chip away at this limit and just grin and bare it until I can slip through a crack.

more to follow.

344- PHEWWW!!

...The last month or so has been a real whirlwind. I had to get my comix ready to print, then deal with actually printing them, then we had our comic convention debut! This all happened locally here in San Jose California, the con debut was at Big WOW!comic fest. We decided that this would be our debut because it is our hometown(of sorts) and it was the con's debut with a new name, and what a name it is. at the con, we sold our first comic to someone we didn't already know, an NDVR first. So that makes us comic professionals. All this seems so minor as i write this, but it has been a long time in the making. Nick and I have had this delusion for more than half our lives. Now as the supposed end of times is nigh, we finally make progress, seems fitting somehow.
This month has also been really emotional for me personally, as things change all around me.
it seems like it never ends. as the kepi songs states,
"my life is starting over again."
and it always does.

320- persimmons

so these images are about a month old, we have a persimmon tree, and the overripe persimmons were slowly being eaten away by the small neighborhood birds. then a MURDER of crows came to town and began to eat them.
it was great.

two hundred and none "ink on paper"

so, as i showered today, it being the end of the year and all, i thought showering was appropriate, anyways, i was thinking about having an audience and how that meant a certain degree of responsibility, to not let them down, and yes i realize this is one long run on sentence, and i began to think about the burn beetle comic which is just waiting to be printed now, the funds will be found eventually, and how simple a comic is, it is just paper and ink, or ink on paper to use my title of this post, a simple device, stapled for prosperity, and no matter how immature or amateurish it is, it still is a comic, and what that means, how it joins the legacy of comics, comics i have read and loved, heroes i have worshiped and grand adventures i have joined them on, and all it takes is ink on paper and two staples, what a grand idea!
so back to the audience, i realize we have only a few readers or people interested in NDVR at this point, and we would like to thank you for this, we will deliver this fabled comic as soon as we can, and you lucky fans will be the first to get it! nick and myself are very grateful for the continued support for this lifelong journey into comic obscurity, especially for those of you who have been involved since the early incarnations of this delusion. we feel like we are better prepared and have a greater understanding of what needs to be done. we also feel like we have something here, something worth doing or stories worth telling.
this blog, so this blog is suppose to be more of a artistic blog for myself, just to show the few of you who care, what i am up to artistically, but for awhile now it is the temporary home for all things NDVR, which is kinda like splitting hairs, since they are rather intertwined, since i try to focus most artistic energies on my comix, so, this sometime this new year a new NDVR blog will arrive with strictly NDVR material, and more of it, we hope to have character biographies, since not everyone has the privilege to know and love the characters that have been with us for so many years, this will most likely coincide with the printing of burn beetle, and will have all the necessary information on it, how to obtain and enjoy all future NDVR comix.
and this blog will have more of the same, great art at a great price!
BE BOLD, GO FORTH AND NDVR!
