Hello all...

My name is Jaydeep Hasrajani, but I mainly go by just "Jay." I grew up in the small, who-gives-a-hoot, town of Fairfield (Located somewhere between San Francisco and Sacramento. In fact, the main selling point to inhabitants of Fairfield is your proximity to San Francisco and Sacramento.

ANYWAYS.... I have loved art and anything that IS art since forever. SO, I decided to pursue a degree in art... After High school I decided to attain an AA in the local community college to save money. I was able to do so in 1.5 years.

Right when I picked up my degree in the mail a HOLE RIPPED OPEN IN TIME AND SPACE. I was grabbed by this futuristic dude and dudette! They told me that I was supposed to save them!

"Save them from what?!," I exclamed.

"SPACE, dude, SPACE," retorted the future dudette.

After leading several espionage space missions, commanding 3 and a half space battalions, and escaping 7 space and time paradoxes, I exclamed to the heavens, "ENOUGH, HEAVENS!!"

So, I stole a time pod from my horribly large Space cruiser 5000...you know...like that one from the motion picture ALIEN...and traveled back to that second whence i was grabbed by the interstellar dude and dudette.

Currently I am pursueing a degree in Animation/Illustration in San Jose State University. I would love to become a Story Board artist or Visual Development artist for a major animation company. I also co-created, Mushapartment.com a web comic with my brother in which I provide short comics along with fellow artist friends on a weekly basis.

Here is some stuff i've done:

This is an early comic from when I first started the site...



and here is a more recent comic...

(From my webcomic: Mushapartment)

Just for kicks, here is a cool video i found online that, in my opinion, debuts a good sense of physics and also has interesting cinematography choices that are perfect for what is going on..:
