your picture was stolen in the recent art theft issue with artforlove. I found it on this list that another deviant put up. This list is from that site. I thought you'd like to know . [link] here is the link to the page. your picture is on page 7. The deviant who posted this link is Let them know your stuff is on there.

Thanks so much for letting me know! Someone else just sent me a note about it as well. This guy is such a butthole. :<

Your welcome. I know!!! I hope he gets taken down and hard. I looked through that link myself but did not see any of my own stuff...but who knows, I almost wonder if practically everyone's is on there somewhere you know?

Wow! I'm really happy to have stumbled across this piece---it was used on one of CCAD's promotional booklet things, right? I remember looking at it and thinking how nice it was. I really love the colors and how enthusiastic it is. ^_^

Hey, that's hilarious. Judging by your watercolor/graphite self-portrait, I think you're right. I've been trying to find other CCAD students on here, and I had just assumed that you were further along than myself. Really awesome work! I'm a little surprised actually; I wonder which ones placed 1st and 2nd? This one definitely stood out while I was touring CCAD and I'm very happy to have transferred in among so much talent. Later on!

Thank you! I know Jake Murray placed first, I forgot which one though, perhaps the robot one?
Which schools had you attended previously?

ThomasKain In reply to kiwikitty37 [2008-11-12 00:45:28 +0000 UTC]

Well, after spending most of my twenties with art on the back-burner and living out the blue collar dream (yeah right), I took a slew of cheap-o general education courses at Columbus State for transfer credits. Then I was an industrial design and sculpture major at OSU up until this semester at CCAD. I cannot tell you how happy I am now that I've transferred to a school that truly appreciates and recognizes illustration as a legitimate career choice.

Anyway, I thought that the robot was very awesome indeed; however, that's an oddly subjective decision for first place in my opinion. What medium did you create this in?

kiwikitty37 In reply to ThomasKain [2008-11-12 05:11:21 +0000 UTC]

I used photoshop CS3 and a small wacom tablet.

Yeah, there are not many illustration programs, period. Missouri, my homeland, did not have a single illustration major that was not heavily design (ad/graph) based. Thus I ended up in Ohio.
