Sketchbook get together

I am wanting to get with other artist an have a weekly get together were we meet up and bring our sketchbooks and draw or paint or what ever your thing may be. We would meet at a public place such as a coffee shop, restraint, bar or even a park. We would meet up draw, talk art and just vibe off each other and hopefully learn and just have a good time. If anyone is interested please contact me through my e-mail at traviswycofftattoo@gmail.com
I look forward to this.

The Codes

James Gurney is one of my favorite artist. I have been in to is art and have started to study it as well. I have learned a lot by reading his books and blogs among many articles he has written and buy looking at his art for hours at a time. I have also learned that he has a lot to offer. Her are the codes takin from Dinotopia. Which in a lot of ways are great to live by.

THE CODES

1 - One raindrop raises the sea.

2 - Survival of all or none

3 - Weapons are enemies, even to their owners

4 - Give more - take less

5 - Others first - self last

6 - Observe, listen and learn

7 - Do one thing at a time

8 - Sing every day

9 - Exercise imagination

10 - Eat to live, don't live to eat

11 - FIND THE LIGHT

Music that changed my life

Back in the early nineties I was into all kinds of music, just as I am today. But I was looking for something different and something I could call my own. I remember staying at my grandmothers one summer as I did most summers and I was up late laying in bed listening to a small College radio station. They played some of the craziest music I'd heard to date. I remember hearing this band come on called Mookie Blaylock. They played this realy bad recording of this song that was later to be called Alive. I thought it was the greatest thing I had ever heard. I could not get it out of my head. I went down to Claremont where rhino records was an went in search for more info on this band. But know one seemed to know anything except they where from Seattle and San Diego and that they didn't have a album out yet. That year when I went back to school. I ended up finding what I was looking for from a friend of mine. I had found that song, a lot better recorded and more songs to go along with that song. It was on a cassette tape called Ten and the band was now known as Pearl Jam. There music had changed my life.

Update "Mothcredo Design"

Well here is a lil blog update. I have finally got the graphic design name up and running. Mothcredo Design, you can check out some older work on Tumblr and I will be posting new design work soon. I got a lot of graphic design work going on. I have a number of Business cards I'm designing for different companies, I'm working on some designs for a new skate board company, a couple book covers for the writer David K. Mantoya, a cd cover for a death metal band which i am doing the design and art work for, and a packaging design for a small sweets company. Once these designs are done and approved I will post them. I'm very proud and fortunate to able to take my art in another direction on top of tattooing and doing my painting. I want to thank everyone for there support and the people that have had me do some graphic design work for them. It's a great feeling. ---Travis
