It basically represents a lot of things I'm witnessing around me. I don't really understand why all of this is happening and it worries me so this is my attempt at dealing with it I guess. I understand some of the imagery might rub you the wrong way and for that I apologize. However, I've been inspired to make another one covering more topics. I can't help but continue on this journey. Hopefully I'll improve on the illustration skills too :0/ </p> <p>The book itself is made with a letter-pressed cover and has rounded edges. I believe it's recycled paper also. 18 Pages, Black Ink, 5.25&quot; x 4.25&quot;, One of a Kind. </p> <p>&quot;This is the most illuminating read on the vast conspiracies at work in this retarded country.&quot; -Yar!</p> 2008-08-07T11:08:04Z http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/drawing/today/ Derek Shumate http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/painting/headintheclouds/ <p><big>Head In The Clouds</big></p> <p><strong>Materials: </strong> Acrylic, Charcoal<br/> <strong>Project: </strong> Personal Exploration<br/> <strong>Date: </strong> 2008<br/> <strong>Size: </strong> 21.5"x19"</p><p>Coming Soon...</p> 2008-06-07T15:06:57Z http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/painting/headintheclouds/ Derek Shumate http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/mixedmedium/liveforever/ <p><big>Live Forever</big></p> <p><strong>Materials: </strong> Acrylic, Enamel, Oil, Ink, Pencil & Paper on Wood<br/> <strong>Project: </strong> Personal Exploration<br/> <strong>Date: </strong> 2008<br/> <strong>Size: </strong> 39.5"x29"</p><p>This piece is Float-Mounted.</p> <p>You can also view, share &amp; comment on this photo at my Flickr site:<br /> <a href="http://flickr.com/photos/shumate/2463804047">http://flickr.com/photos/shumate/2463804047</a><br /> </p> 2008-08-07T11:08:23Z http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/mixedmedium/liveforever/ Derek Shumate http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/painting/livefree/ <p><big>Live Free</big></p> <p><strong>Materials: </strong> Acrylic, Ink, Enamel, Silkscreen & Paper on Wood<br/> <strong>Project: </strong> Personal Exploration<br/> <strong>Date: </strong> 2007<br/> <strong>Size: </strong> 3' x 4'</p><p>You can also view, share &amp; comment on this photo at my Flickr site:<br /> <a href="http://flickr.com/photos/shumate/2463798479">http://flickr.com/photos/shumate/2463798479</a><br /> </p> 2008-05-04T15:05:43Z http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/painting/livefree/ Derek Shumate http://www.derekshumate.com/graphicdesign/posters/iac/ <p><big>Ghost of a Facade</big></p> <p><strong>Materials: </strong> Digital Image<br/> <strong>Project: </strong> Personal Exploration<br/> <strong>Date: </strong> 2008<br/> <strong>Size: </strong> Unknown</p><p>Please visit <a href="http://www.innerartcorridor.com">InnerArtCorridor.com</a> for more information.</p> 2008-05-03T03:05:00Z http://www.derekshumate.com/graphicdesign/posters/iac/ Derek Shumate http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/printmaking/tnt/ <p><big>TNT</big></p> <p><strong>Materials: </strong> Linoleum Block Print on Cotton Paper<br/> <strong>Project: </strong> Personal Exploration<br/> <strong>Date: </strong> 2008<br/> <strong>Size: </strong> 7" x 8"</p><p>This was cut by free hand and wasn't even sketched out first.

It's a re-hashed print but lent it self perfect to my frustration at the time. It's commenting on our biased mainstream media which basically pollutes our lives with unnecessary products, false idols and manipulated news while at the same time censoring the true voice of the people.</p> <p>You can also view, share &amp; comment on this photo at my Flickr site: <a href="http://flickr.com/photos/shumate/2058094306/">http://flickr.com/photos/shumate/2058094306/</a></p> 2008-03-30T07:03:48Z http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/printmaking/mediapollution/ Derek Shumate http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/painting/riseandgrind/ <p><big>Rise & Grind</big></p> <p><strong>Materials: </strong> Acrylic, Enamel, Ink & Paper On Wood<br/> <strong>Project: </strong> Personal Exploration<br/> <strong>Date: </strong> 2007<br/> <strong>Size: </strong> 17.5"x19"</p><p>Coming Soon...</p> 2008-03-10T15:03:21Z http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/painting/riseandgrind/ Derek Shumate http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/painting/makelove/ <p><big>Make Love</big></p> <p><strong>Materials: </strong> Acrylic, Enamel, Ink, Charcoal & Paper On Wood<br/> <strong>Project: </strong> Personal Exploration<br/> <strong>Date: </strong> 2007<br/> <strong>Size: </strong> 16"x17.5"</p><p>Coming Soon...</p> 2007-12-27T20:12:53Z http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/painting/makelove/ Derek Shumate http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/painting/lettuceinvasion/ <p><big>Lettuce Invasion</big></p> <p><strong>Materials: </strong> Acrylic, Enamel, Ink, Charcoal & Paper On Wood<br/> <strong>Project: </strong> Personal Exploration<br/> <strong>Date: </strong> 2007<br/> <strong>Size: </strong> 10" x 21"</p><p>Coming Soon...</p> 2007-12-27T20:12:59Z http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/painting/lettuceinvasion/ Derek Shumate http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/mixedmedium/thecrisis/ <p><big>The Crisis</big></p> <p><strong>Materials: </strong> Acrylic, Enamel, Ink & Paper On Wood<br/> <strong>Project: </strong> Personal Exploration<br/> <strong>Date: </strong> 2007<br/> <strong>Size: </strong> 10" x 20"</p><p>Coming Soon...</p> 2007-11-23T18:11:17Z http://www.derekshumate.com/fineart/mixedmedium/thecrisis/ Derek Shumate
