hello there. yes….
…it has been too long. i hope that this post is the beginning of many. i have so much to catch you all up on. unfortunately i am not at my own computer and am unable to post images from my lovely summer. but in hopes of reconnecting, i will share some inspiration with you.
It’s been a while I know…not posting on my blog does not mean that I have stopped producing art though. I have a sketch in the current issue of underground art school‘s magazine! I was pretty excited to be a part of this magazine! To preview or purchase, just click the image above!
does it get any better than this? ive been burning to create this sort of performance/living art for a few months now. one of my plans is to place an empty strip of primed canvas in a highly trafficked area and let the canvas be created by the elements its surrounded by. essentially…leave a snail trail. i cannot express to you how much seeing Semâ Bekirovic‘s piece excites me!
Found via nazara lazaro via joanne
as i was eating my first clementine for the day (thanks to abby for my new addiction to them), i noticed the little trees that they contained within the peel. i foresee a softground etching in the future! these would make perfect little tree imprints onto a plate to etch….im excited with the ideas and possibilities that my little clementine forest contains!
hope you all have a nice weekend!

{jonathan trimmed his beard recently, and i plan to cut my hair…seemed appropriate since hair has been the topic of alot of our conversations lately}
happy valentines day!
here…i’ll share some inspiration with you
cody hoyt’s work is impeccable, and the processes behind them seem tedious….his dedication to a single piece of work can only raise your appreciation for what he’s doing here. most of his pieces involve many layers onto one work of art { including: silkscreen, etching, gouache, and lithography to name a few}.
today my brother turns 36.
wow, i bet my mom feels old…heh.
nothing better than a little dose of martha rich on your birthday.

there isnt much to say here other than amazing.
every now and then i come across an artist that blows my mind. dana ray {found via my love for you…} is now that artist. her work nearly made me cry it was so refreshing to see. okay, thats an exaggeration…but really, its freaking amazing!!
drawing of a home that i did a few weeks ago. sorry that my posting has slowed down. im going to blame the time of year, things will pick back up again soon! hope youre all enjoying your holidays!
by the way…the title is a bob dylan quote…
ive got you on my mind
okay, so i have been searching for inspiration alot lately, and matthew dent seemed to do it for me. thank you matthew.

i recently stumbled upon tilman faekler‘s work. wow. its stunning. the lines, the colors, the subject matter, the paper….what more is there to say?
here are some of my favorite words of encouragement submitted to boooooooom’s free encouragement project. this is a project that they are doing in collaboration with design for mankind that is running through the end of december. they plan on doing something with these words at the end of the year, but they have yet to say what that is.
if you want to submit your words of encouragement you still have time. it can be a sneaky way to say the way you feel about someone/encourage them. ive submitted mine…but you probably cant pick it out from the rest because theyre all so moooshy!
raine has two imaginary friends that she has known since she was two:. dee-dee (the nice one) and tada (pronounced Tah-dah, like the word you used to say as a kid when you finished something amazing; shes the misfit of the two imaginary girls).
the other morning, dee-dee temporarily came to life in the form of a shadow. raine drew her on our frosty glass door and we were pleasantly surprised to see the shadow ghost on the wall next to her. so when i got the camera out, she grabbed dee-dee’s imaginary shadow hand, then turned to her and said “smile dee-dee”.
i only thought i was done posting for today until i came across celine clanet’s photography via humble arts foundation, then i couldnt resist! {confession: in love i am}
i found this one morning while walking raine to school. im not sure what it is, or where it came from, but it was beautiful. raine was just dying to break it open…
i found kevin christy via camilla engman’s blog. im not sure if its his use of paper, his color choices, or subject matter, but something about his works snags me and sucks me in…i love its strange quality of not really knowing whats going on…love it.
photos from a walk in the woods…these may quite possibly show up in some later works…nature is definitely inspiring…
