Back from the dead.


Hello everybody. I haven't posted in what feels like an eternity mostly because work is keeping me extremely busy... and I got sick... and I got an iPhone.

Here's one that took a while to do for the above reasons and cause it has more work put into it than any other piece I've done up to now. It's a little boy whom my wife knows through people who's nine I believe and has lost his leg to bone cancer. We were really touched by this story so one thing we did was that at our wedding, instead of having the glass clinging that everybody else in the world does ( and that the caterers didn't want us to do ), we told everybody that they'd have to donate money to a little piggy bank set at the head table. We thought that would also limit the amount of awkward kisses we'd have to do.

We were wrong.

The good side of this story is that we raised a nice bit of money for the little boy. Although it's still weird to have smooched so much with some co-workers and our boss there to see all that unfolding.

Oh yeah, we got out of his mother/aunt/I'm confused as to who it was now that his favorite hero is Super Mario... hence him with Super Mario.
