-HOW TO GET INTO THE SKATEBOARD ART BUSINESS-

All the research that I have done to have my art published for skatboard art has come to one conclusion!!! It comes down to knowing someone that owns a big time skateboard business, such as DC, or Element. I talked to the owner of the AEdion and he told me that you must have a reputation of amazing art and you need to know someone that has an IN. He also told me if I really have a goal you should never give up because you never know who you will meet on a plain or in a coffee shop. Until that day that I meet this person I will keep on working on my dream and goals.

The procces to get a symbol trademarked!! Trademarks are governed by both state and federal law. In order to serve as a trademark, a mark must be distinctive. Rights to a trademark can be acquired in one of two ways: (1) by being the first to use the mark in commerce; or (2) by being the first to register the mark with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Registration constitutes nationwide constructive notice to others that the trademark is owned by the party.
USPTO's Application Filing Fee is a $375 dollars, this is a required government fee. A Full Comprehensive U.S. Trademark Search is $249.95, this comes with a Complete search strategy to uncover any exact or similar trademarks at the U.S. Federal,
-50-State, Common Law and Internet Domain Name sources.
-Search of pending and registered Federal trademarks.
-Search of pending and registered trademarks from all 50 States.
-30,000+ trusted news, business and financial sources around the world.
-Business records with more than 12 million U.S. entries from all 50 States.
SO........... I plan on getting my symbol trademarked!!

TIME-
WOW, I sit with this mass amount of things to get done, and I try to organize all the crazy things that I have going in my life, and I feel like I'm getting no were!!! So I ask- WHAT IS TIME? In the web it is defined as a recourse under your control and sufficient to accomplish; "take time to smell the roses"; "I didn't have time to finish"; "it took more than half the time"!............ Well I would take time to smell the roses but I feel like I don't have time!! I guess time is a thing that we all need more of, because I know I do!!

BELIEVE

When you believe in a thing, believe in it all the way, implicitly and unquestionable. I lbelieve in art and the Time you put into art. It is a mark of yourself and the thoughts that bleed from you!

Skate Board/ Grffiti/ Tattoo comic project

My goals for this term are to present a series of water paintings that have a comic story board. To be more specific I have an idea about skateboard art with a twist of graffiti and tattoo art.

Last quarter I challenged myself with a comic that took far too long because I tried coloring it in with colored pencil, this is why I am going with the water painting technique. I believe that it will bring excitement and life to the art that I present. Not to mention the size of the pages will be larger than a normal eight by eleven in paper.

I am going to continue to be creative and push myself with my pencil techniques to set up the color combinations that I feel represent me. This includes trying to use the whole color wheel. In my eyes water painting is the same as tattooing and that is a huge passion for me.

My primary base of study deals with several different sources such as Skate Board Art by Jim Phillips, Street Sketchbook by Tristan Manco, Graffiti World by Nicholas Ganz, Tattoo art Magazine, Flash, Tattoo Life, Inked, Flight by Kazu Kibuishi, Hack / Slash by Tim Seeley, and not to mention marvel comics and DC comics.

My time line is going to include at least one page per week for the quarter. Not sure if this is going to be plausible because I’m not sure how long the water painting is going to take but it is a goal. All in all I will have around 7 or 8 pages of good stuff.
