Ambiance Press is just a name given to what I do, nothing more, nothing less, and nothing fancy. It is named after my other website that was dedicated to album and zine art. It is just me self publishing a comic book every once in awhile to do the best that I can with it.
Ambiance was formed from the ashes of Lybra Comics. This is another side of exploration for me.
It is just my way of saying that I pretty much do everything in it by myself as far as art, story layout, design, website design, shipping & handling, distrobution, and public relations with it.
It is first and foremost about what is inside of me to drive me to create. It is this brink of everyday insanity that eats me from within my brain. This is just another outlet for my nightmares and frustration. My pains from tormenting memories and dark haunting visions from my mind.
Why keep doing it some might say? Because it is an outlet. It is a job behind a job!
You can call it a form of therapy or whatever. I just call it motivation for myself. But above all it is just a form of true storytelling without too much bull crap worked in. If anything, it will probably reflect what I might be going through that day or moment or whenever.
I am by no means rich by the stretch of the imagination and I definitely don�t want to be famous! I am very reclusive. I work a normal job to finance every comic book printing. I also work on it a page at a time. It can be a drawn out precess when you are doing things by yourself in every aspect of creativity, but somehow I manage.
Some people don't understand or don�t want to understand this comic thing. Some may not even care to notice it. But for those people who do, I thank you in so many ways! If you liked what I did, that is even better!
I don�t do comic or art shows anymore unless the circumstances are right and I get the right show billing. I don�t want another Planet Comicon 3! It is something I dont want to bother to get caught up in again, if I can help it.
I dont condone the use of money but when it overrides what you do, it can consume you to smithereens. I have seen that all to often which these rich trendy bastards!
Beyond all of this, I am just trying to stay true to myself and this craft. Thats it!
I am not a major corporation nor a company. I am just trying to be myself and that can be for better or for worse.
I am underground. till I am under the ground six feet under!
Who am I? I am probably a lot like you! All I ask is that I can be myself with this and be allowed to explore and try new things with art. To allow myself to grow and be experimental and perhaps not be ashamed of what I do. So hopefully you can bear with me in all of this.
Where will it go from here? Time will tell! But hopefully it can only get better.....
In the end, I listened to the darkened withins of myself and i am doing the best I can.....
