By any other name

It's spring and all sorts of things have sprung up around the studio, including these eternal roses (scent free, mind you). I've got over a dozen black ones done now. I'm also going to do a few red ones for a punch of colour. They'll be a nice compliment to my other stuff for Shock Stock.

Texturals

I'm continuing to experiment with texture. To that end, I've started on a new series of small graphic images for Shock Stock retail.

Bit by bit

I'm bringing some bling to this year's Shock Stock.

Base colours available: gold (shown), silver, black, brown, burgundy, red, purple, and green

Planning ahead

I've signed up for the 2012 editions of the Shock Stock Horror and Subculture Convention and the London Fringe Festival's Visual Fringe. Both events are scheduled earlier in the year than they have been in previous years. That means that all of the deadlines are moved up too. Hope I'm not over-committing myself.

The gargoyles

The gargoyles and I will be hanging out on Brennan's patio this weekend howling at the moon. Come join us!

Cash 'n' carry

Here's a sneak peek at my cash 'n' carry stuff for this year's VisualFringe. The series is called "El Gato Gordo". There are 24 5"x7" canvas-on-board pieces plus greeting cards with smaller versions of the pictures.

Inquisitive one

Lil warm fuzzies

In the process of revamping my studio space, I happened upon a stack of 5"x7" canvas covered boards. I'm going to use them for a series of "lil warm fuzzies" ostensibly for retail sale at next year's Visual Fringe show. These is the first one; there'll be more to come.
