A Shameless Blog

It was actually yesterday but I was too busy swimming in my pool of frosting
to make a post. I enjoyed myself way too much while making this. Enjoy!

I did take SOME pictures. Here’s one.

Got plenty to share on the blog after the show opens. If you’re in the area you should drop by.

Construction paper and newsprint. 6in x 4.5in

Made this shit!

1 foot, corrugated loveliness.

The plot will thicken with time.

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!

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.

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.

Been spending some serious quality time with construction paper lately.
Here’s the fruits of my recent labor.

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!

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!
