Artist looking for work[views:8848][posts:43]_____________________________________________ [Dec 9,2004 11:14pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] Motherfuckers, I need some business! For those of you who are uneducated regarding my background, I've been attending art school for 4 years as an illustration major, have work available to view upon request (I'll have a site up soon hopefully), and I need some fucking jobs for my winter break. In late January I am 99% sure I need knee surgery, which causes many a financial problem for me. I'm trying to save as much money and work as much/hard as I can for the next 6 weeks to keep my financial situation stable. Anywho, I'm looking for serious inquiries only, please; I can do logos, t shirt designs, album art, whatever. If you need some art for anything, let me know ASAP and I'll give you the scoop. Since I'm still a student, I won't charge an arm and a leg...just a few fingers, heh heh. I am 100% serious about this, so whoever the eligible customers may be must also be 100% serious. Contact: meamogre18@hotmail.com aim: meamogre 617 291 8533 or just post here, I'll be checking frequently Help a nukkah out, beyatch!:tightiewhities: |

| _______________________________________ [Dec 10,2004 10:50pm - dirteecrayon ""] ucw reunion! |
| _______________________________________ [Dec 10,2004 11:31pm - Dave_Maggot ""] my brother said something to that effect today. we all got old and fat and look like we've all aged ten years now. it'd be like one of those movies. |
| _______________________________________ [Dec 10,2004 11:31pm - Dave_Maggot ""] we are hairier now too. |
| ________________________________________________ [Dec 11,2004 3:48pm - mark fucking richards ""] believe me, if a ucw reunion was possible it'd already have happened a long time ago. anywho, bump again. ps...i know cryptic warning and dissector have done business with my partner in crime, evan duplessis. we're trying to get our shit together to start a full force productions company with a focus on art, graphics, websites, etc. so who knows, maybe the two of us will be attacking some projects soon. |

That's cool. |
| ___________________________________ [Dec 11,2004 4:25pm - dreadkill ""] if you guys ever need a third artist to join the stable, i'm available. it's really hard these days to get a job in the art world. i graduated from umass dartmouth in 2003 with a dual degree in graphic design and electronic imaging. i've had one internship since i left there and a few freelance projects. i'm trying to get into grad school for next year and get a masters so i can teach graphic design at the college level. i have a job interview on tuesday with a design firm. hopefully i'll get a job soon. i don't want to go back to retail. good luck mark. post a link to your portfolio for us when you get it online. i'm redoing my portfolio site after i get all my grad applications out of the way. |

| __________________________________________ [Dec 11,2004 6:43pm - BestialOnslaught ""] What about some samples... |
| _________________________________________ [Dec 11,2004 8:00pm - FiddleTilDeath ""] i second the samples thing |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 12,2004 6:22am - Dave_Maggot ""] bump. he'll get you samples. hire this fucker. :doublehorns: |
| _________________________________________________ [Dec 12,2004 11:42pm - mark fucking richards ""] i'll toss up some samples tomorrow evening; i won't be at my comp until then. dreadkill: i'll talk to ev about that. i think having an extra element of graphic design would help what we'll be trying to do. i'll keep you posted. niccolai: that would be awesome; i have one week of the semester left, so i'll get some shit together and we'll figure all that shit out. i'd rather have someone else do the online portion than struggle with it myself, hah. |
| __________________________________ [Dec 13,2004 7:27am - niccolai ""] Yea, I'd just implie your art into a layout, built the site and structure, and hand it over to you as a template or guideline and you can personalize it. |
| __________________________________ [Dec 13,2004 8:23am - lynneaus ""] hey dreadkill not to rain on your parade... but you most likely wont get a college/university gig with just a masters... in massachusetts, after teaching 5 years in the public school system (k-12) you need to have your masters degree to continue teaching.... you know what my masters degree got me? a middle school teaching job for a year....laid off...and now not rehired anywhere for the past two years because with already having my masters they have to pay me more. |

| ______________________________________ [Dec 13,2004 11:19pm - DaveMaggot ""] thats not very nice. |
| ________________________________________ [Dec 13,2004 11:21pm - KeithBuckley ""] If my dick could think, it would say you're a pussy, and your username is just as bad. |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 14,2004 12:39am - dreadkill ""] if my dick could shoot fire, it would burn your friggin face off for saying stupid shit on this website to people. i'm an artist with a degree in art. i say he knows what he is doing. what are your credentials buckley? |
| _____________________________________ [Dec 14,2004 5:48pm - DaveMaggot ""] bump!:gun: |
| _____________________________________________ [Dec 14,2004 8:23pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] funny thing is, i made all that with my dick... |
| ______________________________________________ [Dec 15,2004 12:31am - MarkFuckingRichards ""] shit, i forgot i organized my stuff on photobucket so none of it is showing up now. hopefully this link will work, so you can see all the previously posted items as well as a few more pieces. if not, i'll repost the pictures if i have to. I WILL NOT REST!!!!! http://photobucket.com/albums/v621/markwrichards/ |

| __________________________________ [Dec 15,2004 9:46am - succubus ""] but i think his point was that the anonymous guy was being a dick like a lot of people on here, especially lately unfortunately |
| __________________________________ [Dec 15,2004 10:18am - tbone_r ""] "funny thing is, i made all that with my dick... " well played |
| __________________________________ [Dec 15,2004 10:22am - tbone_r ""] wow, that stuff's pretty good. i especially like the guy tied up in the chair w/ the lightbulb above him and the one to the left of it |
| ______________________________________________ [Dec 15,2004 11:34am - MarkFuckingRichards ""] thanks tbone r; i actually had to fix the chair one, since my light source didn't match the light reflecting on the walls. just a simple lampshade fixed that...hopefully i'll get that piece back from my professor soon along with the 2nd component to it (the really bright colored one), cuz i had to fix some stuff on there as well. as far as the comment that keithbuckley made, i really don't give a shit. if someone says my music or taste in music sucks, whatever. if someone says my art or taste in art sucks, whatever. art definitely is subjective. too many people get all bitchy when their work--whether any form of art, music included, etc.--gets bad remarks or harsh criticism. i make art for myself...well, for my professors and clients too. but i make sure i make it how i want to. i thank dreadkill anyway, cuz he's a cool shit and i know he was just trying to keep this thread positive as he is an artist himself. no need to argue here folks. and also...i know many art instructors at umass dartmouth, as well as a few other schools, that have just their bachelor's degree in art, and they're some of the best teachers i've had. from what i understand it's kind of easy in this area to get a college instructor job when attending the same school for grad school. rock on south shore! yowza! |

| _____________________________________________ [Dec 17,2004 3:30pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] awesome; just let me know when, what style you're looking for, concepts, etc etc etc. just as a heads up: i like when a band already has a few ideas for artwork, or at least some sort of guidelines (concept/subject matter, style of art or style of another artist, all that jazz). that makes the process much quicker and more enjoyable for both me and the band. meamogre18@hotmail.com is my email. let me know what's goin down. |
| ________________________________ [Dec 17,2004 3:38pm - Hooker ""] I'll do album covers. |
