Llama

Made a llama, it’s about 5″tall and it’s made of paper. It now belongs to
my Grandma Jo, who keeps company with numerous llamas on her farm.
The only frame I could find last minute was one of those floating glass ones,
which I wasn’t thrilled with but it turned out fine in the end.

Back to work!

Drawing Progress
Got a couple of things going on over here in my fortress of solitude. Getting excited about recreational drawing again and decided to tackle a photograph of my great grandmother that I swindled away from my lovely mother years ago. Just playing around with texture/pattern. Above is peek, perhaps a bit hard to make out. I guess that’s what a peek is. We’ll have to wait and see what happens.

Papercutting Progress
I enjoyed making bear so much that I thought another paper cutting project was called for. My floor is littered with tiny construction paper triangles. No pictures of that, you’ll have to take my word for it.

Doin' It
Been getting messy over here.

I did a very short run of some thank you block prints recently. Wanted to experiment with overlaying different inks and shapes. Having seen some really nice screen printing test prints, I wanted to do something similar. Thing is, it’s really hard to recreate something as accidental as a test print.
Here’s a few of the winners!

Thanks

Here’s one of the things I’ve been working on during the holidays;
a miniature of Erik’s favorite Thai cart! I typically geek out on his
gifts exhibit a and exhibit b. He deserves it.

It’s roughly 5 inches tall and made from matte board. Got a nice
rough spot on my finger from pressing down on the exacto knife
so hard. Had to get those tight details.

Hope everyone enjoyed the holidays!
