Enamel Bunny

A bunny charm I made for my enamels class - he's jointed!

Mass Market Spring '09

Mass Market was great. While I didn't feel totally prepared and still sort of wish I had made more hardcover books (especially more with the bike cover!), my table looked great and I had more than enough stuff. I sold a decent amount of stuff although didn't make much money, but got rid of a few really old pieces and that felt great. Gave away a lot of cards, talked to a lot of interesting people, possibly made some good connections and really appreciated all the nice things people had to say. I sold about four or five hardcover books, like fifteen notebooks, only a handful of cards (grrrr), one charm bracelet and a bunch of other stuff. Sold two old cameras to a good home and got rid of almost all of the about mixtapes books (finally!). Here's some pictures of my table:

New Work - Today

So, I finished classes a week and a half ago and my productivity has dropped. Blame it on the beautiful weather, blame it on the swine flu, blame it on gucci mane. Either way, I've been stuck but that doesn't mean I get to stop creating - such is the life of an 'art student'. My review board is 7 days away and while I'm happy with the amount of work I have to share, there could always be more. So, I took a trip to the art supply store hoping to find some inspiration (and see that wicked cute boy that works behind the reg...) and I did. Bought three of those awesome cradled plywood boards (artist & craftsman supply sells them for so much less than blick!), came home, got out the gouache and got to work. Hours later, this is what I made. I really like them.





A little difficult to photograph since they're quite light... and the setting sun isn't the best illuminator. Gouache on 4x4 cradled plywood boards. All of the colors were mixed from a super limited palette.

Toy Animals

I have a little group of plastic animals on my desk, and sometimes I like to draw them. I started doing drawings of them and writing their names with a metal nib pen. I want to do them all - they're on 12x12 stonehege paper (which is the shit).
