Reader's Poll
Take a look at the following categories. To celebrate the third birthday of SCHLIEFKEVISION, you, the reader can vote on the best of the best. The categories are: Best Food Picture Best Self Portrait Best Celebrity Run-In Best Video Clip
Through the years, besides adding painting after painting to my portfolio and updating the site with shots from the studio on a monthly basis, food has been a constant source of material. Probably due to its complete absence from my life on some days, I've learned to revel in it when its there. So no matter how absurd or disgusting the food, there's always some grain of enjoyment that can be taken from it.

Best Food Picture It was hard limiting this category to six nominees, but as things go, its a pretty strong bunch. Hot dogs play a part in half of them, and mound of cooked grade A American beef plays a part in the rest.
With a eponymous website, it's only natural to turn the camera on yourself when you feeling down or bored or need some filler material. Looking back at some of the older pictures make my thirty year old bones ache a little bit more, and the degree to which I've almost completely given up on shaving doesn't make me worry at all - yet.
Having a camera onhand at all times is something you try to keep up with. You never know who you'll run into when. While documenting an exceedingly boring and tedious normal day in my life, I ran into Alex Jones. And while out poking around art openings in Kansas City, I stumbled upon and was saluted by that failure from Massachusetts, John Kerry.
Best Run in with a Celebrity
This category is the slimmest of them all, and pits Austin and national hero Alex Jones, who rails against the New World Order and preaches that the public should become aware of the dehumanizing aspects of society. In the other corner of the ring is the 2004 Democrat who lost to George W. Bush because he was unable to convince more than 48% of the country that we needed to go a different route.
With new technology comes new attractions, and my new camera allows me to record up to three minute videos. I've only dabbled in the new medium, and despite being urged to start podcasting and buying an iPod and becoming a total video hipster, I've shunned the modern world and will settle for the few videos I produce a year.
Best Video
One from Halloween, one from a trip to Kansas City, and a surprisingly calm finale to three days of heavy sweating and dust of this year's ACL Music Festival.
