Introduction time







Hi all,
this is my first attempt at a blog. I feel it is appropriate for me to have a proper introduction to anyone reading this. This blog will be my main art centre next to Deviantart. The difference here is that I will show the process of my art work as well as the final product. I will also show this new invention I made for drawing, it was made this very night as I am writing this, and I am quite proud of it. I feel it is useless to patent such a thing, cause it is for the purpose of art, and since we all know what a bunch of broke losers artists are, any contribution to the art community (that is free) is always a good thing.

First thing's first, my name is Quang Le (pronounced Q-ang, with one syllable). It is my immigrant name :) I have a Canadian name, Justin, but have since come to the conclusion that it is a slave name, plus people call me Quang mostly nowadays, so its all good.

The main reason I want to use the name Quang is kind of long. I was bummed out about my current situation, and indecision to go into art as a career, and for some reason, I googled my name. Upon my aimless search, I found this http://www.photosalaquang.com/.

As you can see, this guy was living my dream. He was an artist, a photographer to be exact, and good at his job. He works for magazine companies, shot the picture that would be the Aquabat's album cover. And if you don't know who the Aquabats are, shame on you! Email Travis Barker and he might tell you. Anyways, this Quang Le guy was successful, scene, and living my dream life. I saw it as a sign, perhaps I will go by this name, and take the same risks, and go forth into the world of: sketchy Hollywood shindigs, hiding dead hooker's body's cause she O.D.ed on flavor-of-the-week actor's cocaine, getting a highschool musical actress in trouble with the police,bailing her out only with the promise of sexual favours in return, you get the idea.

I have a problem with going on tangents, and my grammar could be better, and if you only log on here to see the art posted, that would still be fucking swell >: )
If you have never heard of Designbyhumans.com or threadless.com, I suggest you check them out, wicked T-shirt sites with wicked artwork.
In the up coming days, yours truly will try to submit stuff, and you can see first hand when he fails flat on his face or triumphs in sweet victory, right on this here blog, same bat time, same bat channel.

Ps. I have a design submitted on Designbyhumans(DBH) right now, you can check it out at this link (http://www.designbyhumans.com/vote/detail/38539) and vote if you want, but I don't expect it to win. I have another design coming up soon, but thats for later.

  1. Nice drawings. Its a symmetry of awesome causation that leads to a reverse wickidness.

    Update more. I want to live vicariously through you by reading your blog.

  2. I'll give you one thing over the other Quang; you're a lot more articulate than he is. And if you ever need a grammar editor...you know whom to call.

  3. Thats true, for example, I wouldn't have known to put "Whom" in that sentence.
