    stoph is no longer the Diet Coke of Professional...

    thats right guys, this week is my last at my retail job, i've given them notice and i'll be a full-time freelance artist by the weeks end! its a big step, and i may be hungry for a while, but i have a good feeling about things, have a lot of stuff in the pipeline, cant wait for what the future holds.

    couldnt do it without the constant support and inspiration you guys provide here at CA
