Week 3

Week 3:  Another post I was excited to make.  I remember the day I first learned about this man's art.  The first that came to mind was that he must have been on something, because his art was trippiest thing I had ever scene.  Computer monitors can display millions of colors and by god McCarthy is going to find a way to use all of them.  I was also pleasantly surprised to see that Brendan McCarthy worked on other things I enjoyed such as Highlander and Judge Dredd.  The biggest difficulty in making this was trying to cram the dudes career into a single section.  The guy was so proactive its worthy of it's own post.  Still, at the end of the day I'm proud of what I did and I feel I did him justice.

Week 2

Week 2:  I was super excited when I got to do Sam Kieth.  Sam Kieth is a fascinating man to me.  So this was probably the easiest post to make. I also have a good amount of beforehand knowledge so finding information was made slightly more convenient.  One problem that did come up was trying to find his works.  He's worked  "on" projects but they aren't entirely his so it was hard to come up with what embodies his talent.
Week: 1
When I wanted to do this project I knew exactly who I wanted to talk about first.  It had to be the big man himself.  Ashley Wood.  The biggest setback I didn't take into account was the fact that despite all of Ashley Wood's greatness there isn't much personal information about the guy.  So to make up for it I put more work into his Career section.  With that I feel I improved a little on my researching skills.
