I have made a tutorial for Digital Arts, April 2009 issue, you can buy it here at Digital Arts website, in case you are wondering the tutorial is how to paint hair and some other few things and do some other stuff in the face of the model. It is similiar to the artworks i have called silly parade/dreamlandia of arisu shown in Raster art group.

I also got in OFFF’s catalogue 09 with dreamlandia of arisu ^^ which is great… hope i get hold of a copy of the catalogue.

this week i finally received my issue of otaku mag: kaidan issue, released some months ago yehhh !! late mail… that’s about it.

check bigger version on my myspace.com/arisuart , press album

AND FINALLY what i was waiting for, book release of dispersed diaries will come soon, i have some of my illustrations in there, but the main importance of this book is poet Adityavikram Gupta and our nice society of artists called 3rd thought.

i have good and bad news… bad news is that my solo exhibition that was supposed to happen in march was postponed (most likely to may or june) due to the fire earlier yesterday night of the bar that elegy ibérica was holding the event. freaky right? police is investigating it and stated that it seemed to be a ’settlement’ and that was for sure made by criminal hand. either way… i guess then this gets more loose because from what i know so far some other exhibition might be held in asia.

good news is that my artwork is available at artwhino store, some people might find it a bit expensive but well, i am not calling the prices of my artwork anymore, person who deals with all this has more contacts and made several searches on what prices should be. we have chosen our price but with the more 50% of the gallery it gets higher price. some of these prints are limited editions but they range from 3 to 5 prints *only*, and PiNK is a single edition. i believe they forgot to mention it in the store but i will emailing them soon… to see which images are available click in store and then chose more artists or more previous artists something like that… and you will see in a very tiny way saying arisu
as far as my zazzle store still haven’t got to a settlement of stuff on this, i am still working on it and am hoping for in march or april *at least* to have some doing the management of it and being more promoted on the web, some people have bought my accessories already but i got a problem is that i still can’t change my royality. so i’m only making cents at this point.

about my art, i am doing new pieces… i will soon start the schoolgirl series most likely in march, i need to do a second shoot for it cuz in the past weeks i haven’t been doing any cuz fruscianta has not being able and i’m gonna start teaching her photoshop.

the last 2 images i posted, the square colorful ones, i did another 2 and i’m hoping for this week to do another 2 and then launch them into my website, anneli says it’s a good series but i am not very pleased… but i am hard to please anyway. they’re nice, poses are pretty much the same  but i am just variating the theme but is all about candy and sweetness.

i still have those commissions to do but i still need to do the shootings for this and i’m starting to lack of time.
