September 2011 Update

It has been far too long since I have updated my deviantart account. I have not really been on the site in a long time, but it seems the website has grown by leaps and bounds since I first became a member so many years ago. I will be working to upload images to inspire, tell stories, motivate and intrigue.

In recent news, I started a new company about a year ago called, Kaizen Dreams. Kaizen is a word in Japanese that means continual improvement.

As an artist, I feel that we all struggle to improve on a regular basis. How can we hope to progress and develop our skills if we do not do so.

One of my goals is to start developing tutorials for artists to help share ideas, techniques and information so that my friends, fans and students can all learn and grow. It is my goal to improve as well.

The Arts play an important role in society, the media of all kinds inspire, motivate and encourage ways of thinking. So I feel that at some point we need to embrace a higher view of the effect our work has on others.

*** With all that in mind, I have a few questions for you:

1.) What are your experiences with art and how do you feel it inspires or influences the way people think and act?

2.) What are your goals and what are you working to improve upon?

3.) Who inspires you?

4.) Can you tell us a story of your greatest mentor or the person or people that inspire you most?

5.) What are the best resources you have found to learn and improve your craft?

I look forward to hearing your answers my friends and I hope you are doing well. I will be working to update more regularly.

Sincerely,
Bryan Crump

P.S. I will be going back to school soon to study architectural engineering. No doubt that will have a profound influence on the works that I create in the future.
