Proud to announce my sis Shirlee and I received 2nd place in the 3D category at the ANA Regional Art Exhibition today. The exhibit runs through August 6th at the Arkansas Center of the Ozarks.

The Artists of Northwest Arkansas are pleased to have their 16^th Annual regional juried competition at the ACO. The ANA seeks to provide regional artists with a way to discuss artistic experiences and endeavors while increasing awareness of the diversity of talent in NWA. This show is always a wonderful example of regional talent, and a big crowd pleaser.

I received some cool Fuzzy related gifts for my B-day this week. The first one is by WA artist J.L. Anderson. It’s Fuzzy in 3-D. Its so cool. He’s about 6 inches tall and has the perfect smirk. For more on J.L. check out her website at http://anaria.net , her etsy site, and her deviantart page.

Big thanks to my Sisters for working together on this cute little guy. I’ll post more gifts soon too.

Due to crazy TEN+ inches of snow on Saturday, the UnBirthday Costume Party & Art Show has been postponed until next Friday, March 26, 8pm, Nightingale Theater in Tulsa. See you there!

The 2009 Tulsa Comic and Anime Expo was a blast. I want to thank everyone who came by the table and shared in a laugh. Laughter was the greatest compliment I could ask for.

I also want to thank and show my respects to these great artist who were also there: Dave from Sweet Chunks, Amber from Love the Dango, the ladies at Happy Ninja Confetti, Peter from Ravenchilde, Leanne from chistudios, Bob and Eric from Boodachitaville, Larry from gryphonking.com and Mercedes from mercedeslackey.com.

Each one are wonderful people and and I am grateful they shared their creativity and smile this weekend. Pics are up over at the Nut Cracks Facebook page.

It was suggested I enter my ‘7 Nutty Sins’ series in a DeviantART compitition. It sound fun so I did and I tied for 1st place in the digital art category. It’s the little things that make you smile. Here’s the link to the other winners.

This is the one year anniversary for this version of Nut Cracks! I am very happy that I have stuck with it and haven’t missed an update. Everyone’s support and comments have made this a fun project that I am sure I will be continuing for a while.

As I said above, this is the newest version of Nut Cracks. The first Nut Cracks comic was produced in 1996 when I was a sophomore in college at Eastern Washington University. They have a huge squirrel population. So much so I think they have their own fraternity now. I would post my comics in independent newsletters on campus. Boy, Fuzzy has come along way. In celebration I found my first Nut Cracks and decided to post in. Thanks again for everyone’s support.
