Kitten Explosion

Hello, everyone! I have a bunch of new ideas brewing but it's hard to get to them. You see, we've been fostering kittens around these parts and at the moment we have 5 teeny tiny ones in addition to the two tank-cats that normally wander around the house. If I'm on the computer, there's a butt in my face and at least two more stomping on my keyboard doing all kinds of crazy things to my files.

Butts like this:

Messes like that:

Killed all my baby cacti.

You should have seen me trying to do matting for the Handmade Promenade. Diiiiisaster. While making my little jotters with the paper guillotine I had to shut everyone away for fear of some living being in the house shedding blood. Man, oh man.

In the mean time I need to get up photos of glass and ceramic things I painted that were at the show in Indy last friday. Here's a crap photobooth'd one I took to show a friend. Expect this little dude on a print sometime soon. Maybe even a block print if I can get my act together.



But honestly with faces like this, it's hard to concentrate for long.


I will have a small table at the Curves in West Lafayette, IN tomorrow (May 11) from 9-12 if anyone is in the area. It's a small thing but I'd love to see some happy faces down there.

Toys 2010

Hey kiddos! Tonight is the opening of the Toys show in downtown Indianapolis! I have a piece there that you can check out (or buy, if you are so kind.) I only have the color comp I did, but I'll be sure to get some photos tonight.

Check it out:

Primary Colors presents TOYS.
6-9 plus an after party.
Good times will be had, I'm sure.

Art fair shenanigans.

Hey kids!

I've been busy preparing for an art fair downtown, as well as helping my roommate prepare for a completely different one the same day. A word of advice, don't try and make a booth out of PVC when you have never done anything like that before and are too short to put it together anyway.
In short, it's been a little hectic. I'm still trying to get things done though. For example, I'm getting out the paint and brushes and actually painting!

Sorry for the bad scan and terrible photo, but I am only left with a bad scanner and an apartment devoid of a place to take a decent photo. I'll have better versions soon though, I hope.

Commissions

I got my hands on two commissions from my etsy. One for a Pan and one for a mermaid. Neither are something I'd think of doing right off so it was kind of nice. However, the dude wanted me to paint and ink them, nothing digital. That thew me for a loop, I haven't painted in a while.





Because I was a little shaky I've promised myself to do a little more practice. So I did a quick doodle last night and did some practice painting.



Hopefully I get better pretty soon.
