Julio PDN Pics

Hey all, I just wanted to thank everyone that views my blog over the years, it's been quite a ride and I appreciate the fact that people look and see what I've been up to. Honestly this blog doesn't just showcase my art, but also motivates me to make more since I know some people out there may want to see more. I wanted to let you all know that I've hit over 25,000 views across many different countries over the more than 15 years of having this blog. I know it may not be a lot of views by the world's standards, but for me it's a lot and I appreciate the fact that people come and at least take a look. If you'd like, you can leave a comment of your favorite types of work or your favorite colors, and I can try making something of what you like or with those colors next. I do apologize for not having an image this month, my energy is not like it used to be, but I'll try to have something next month. Again, I appreciate you all and I hope this year ends on a ...

 Hey all, just some news for you! I’m excited to announce that I have my online store with custom pointers up and running. I also put up a new page here on this blog describing the store and the story of how they came to be. For the month of March, you can use coupon code JC50OFF to get 50% off of all purchases. Enjoy them, and remember, feedback is always welcome!

Just a bit of information for you guys, I decided to go ahead and change the name of the blog to match my Facebook and Instagram pages. Blog from now on will be titled Julio PDN Pics. I also replaced the Pictures page with a page that has a link to my new Portfolio. I hope you enjoy that gallery more than the pictures page that used to be here. For one thing, it looks so much better than the old way I had here, so it’s far more aesthetically pleasing. I'll have an image again for you guys soon. Thank you for your patience while I figure things out with the recent trials I've been going through. These times are difficult for sure and I hope everyone is staying safe.

I had a thought of doing a December Holiday series and posting an image for three holidays that I know of in December. Those holidays include Hanukkah, Christmas, and Kwanzaa. Reason I am wanting to do that is to include all of the holidays instead of just doing Christmas like I have been doing. I hope you enjoy that and I'll see you here with the first image on the 22nd.

Well, here I am without an image, but as you may or may not have noticed, this blog looks a little different. I decided to change things up a bit from the darker theme of the blog to a more modern look as well. Nothing super different, but I just thought you may like a bit of a different look to the blog. I hope you enjoy the new layout and look I have adopted. If you don't like the new look, just let me know in the comments and I'd be happy to either change it back or to something else that is different. Thanks again for your support and I'll see you here with another image soon.

I’ve been becoming a bit more active on the Paint.NET forums, and have entered into two competitions. I’ll post my results of each one when the competitions end later on so that you can see my results. If I place, I may even add some more awards to my awards page! I’m excited to show you what I have made for them and I’ll see you here soon.

Hey everyone and happy Throw Back Thursday! This is my 100th post on this blog, which is a huge milestone for me. I almost want to go out and celebrate this milestone and eat some ice cream or something, but we’ll see what happens. Anyway, I have decided that I would make this a special post and show you a bit of my accomplishments throughout the years. I have a compilation of a few of my favorite images (except the first one) I've made over the years to show how much I’ve grown and improved down below. Divided (Aug. '09) Cool Fire (Dec.

Well, once again I let this blog collect dust for a while. Work and school has taken a toll on my time so I may not be able to post anything here until November or December. I apologize to anyone that is a faithful viewer of my content, and I'll be sure to make more art come November and December.

Sorry for the long time with no update. I will be updating this here soon. A lot has happened since I last updated this page as well as Facebook, but as things calm down, I've been working on new images that I hope to have up soon. Take care everyone and I look forward to interacting a bit more on here soon.

You were probably expecting Element 7 here right now, but it's no where to be found!! Don't worry I didn't loose it or anything, I'm just planning to post it at a better time for this element. I wanted to post it in it's own element if you catch my meaning. It will still be today, just a little later. Stay tuned to find out what it is and when it is.

I have just added a new feature to this blog! It's an email subscription to this blog! Simply put your email into the appropriate box on the right (->) and you'll get email notifications as to what get's posted!

Time is up for emailing me to get into the mailing list. I might open up another time for it, but for now, I have 2 people on and 8 openings left. If anyone emails me at this time, they will not be accepted into the mailing list until I open another opportunity. I hope to have more pictures for you soon!!! Keep on viewing my blog!!!

Hey, this post is just for those of you that want to keep up with my blog a bit more. If so, I can add you to a mailing list, or you could just follow this blog if you have a gmail account. The mailing list unfortunatly can only have 10 email addresses, one of which is taken. If you wish to be added, send me an email asap and I'll add you to the list. Only the first 9 people to send me an email will be added, the rest will have to wait. This offer will end two weeks from today (Sunday February 13) at 8:00 pm US Central Time.
