Cleaning Out and Up
I’ve begun cleaning out some things that haven’t been cleaned out in at least a decade and discovering some odd things. Also been cleaning up my Pops collection and more.
Star Wars Pops – Pt 3
This gallery contains all of my Funko Pops from Star Wars: The Mandalorian Saga and its spin-offs.
It’s a Spring Thing
Something about spring has sprung me into gear to get some stuff done around here including new art and other projects.
Status Update 019
I’m back to being an artist once again thanks to a generous gift from my BFF of a Nvidia RTX GeForce 3060. Now to decide what to render…
A Life Update
Just an overall update on what’s going on with me at the moment and all that I’m dealing with and trying to get done.
Status Update 017
I’m finally back to being an artist although I’m also in a great deal of pain due to dental procedure troubles which are keeping me from getting back to everything I need to get back to. I’ll keep trying to work through it though.
My Best Art of 2021
Here I have collected what I think are my best artworks of what I created in the year 2021.
Done with 2021
I’m done with 2021 so here’s a look back at what all I’ve done and a little look at what I hope will be ahead in 2022.
Status Update 016
Cleaning is all done; now the constant upkeep to try and maintain it all begins. I am now focusing on trying to be an artist again after yet another hiatus and to try to not get depressed as the year comes to an end.
Getting Things Done
I wrote up my to do list (that’s several pages long) and have started getting things done. That includes a LOT of cleaning, reorganizing, and adding some new cool stuff.
Status Update 015
I’m currently in the midst of another mad cleaning frenzy. At least I’m not feeling S.A.D. again this year. I just wrote up a huge To Do list for myself to get done in the coming week. I managed to get quite a bit of stuff done yesterday and the day before, so things are looking good so far.
Ups and Downs and Arounds
Some things have been getting better, others worse, and some have just been going in never ending circles of good and bad. It’s crazy!

Mission Statement WTF is AIW All About?
The point of every personal blog I’ve every had on the internet has always been to document my progress as I attempt once again to get my life on track with some fun diversions along the way. I talk about my health and my work along with all of my hobbies in a way that’s (hopefully) entertaining for both you and me. Regardless of whether it is entertaining for me, or you, I have always found writing these blog entries to be very therapeutic. Even if few ever read these words, it still benefits me to write and continue to create this blog. So, I shall continue to publish this blod for as long as I feel like it, whenever I feel like it and sometimes even when I don’t feel like it.
So, who am I? I am a 36 year old digital artist from a little town in Southern Illinois who has a penchant for blogging. In addition to being an artist who works in the niche 3D digital art industry I am also bipolar, a hobbyist photographer with two cute chihuahuas, a collector of Funko Pops, and an obsessive gamer who also mods the crap out of said games. I blog about all that and a little more here @ aiw.wtf (don’t you just love the new url?) I have literally been blogging since 1998 when I got my first at-home internet connection. I quickly taught myself to code html websites and later on learned WordPress. And now here we are. Below are some of the topics, features, and more that you can find or will find on this blog:
