Hipster on the Train

Friday, July 2nd, 2010

A really tiny 10″x8″ inch acrylic painting I did from my sketchbook of a hipster on the train. She had the most amazing houndstooth coat… I had alot of fun drawing the patterns… and I love how the canvas looks at an angle… It’s got this sort of contrast-y, opposing color thing on the sides of the painting that I added. (click to make it bigger!)

I also have it up on the etsy for sale here: [link]

And in bigger and better news: My old Epson wide format printer which died two years ago… has been REPLACED! I purchased a Canon Pixima printer… which means that I’m now able to sell my own prints again! (yay!) So, If you see anything on the site that you’d like to purchase as a print, send me an email (or send me a note through the contact page) and I’ll let you know more. The only problem is that the biggest I can print is 13″x19″ inches. Any bigger and you still have to purchase it through the inPrnt store.

Ok! Now that I’m done updating, I wish all of you a happy Fourth of July! Yay! I got a little lucky and have a 4 day weekend off… so perhaps more work will be posted up soon!

Sea of Madness

Sunday, May 23rd, 2010

Ok, quick title change! And it is fin! The fun part was putting in the little glowing lights. Really added to the mood of the whole thing. And the upside down/multi-leveled part completed the confusion.

Speaking of madness… I’ve been going mad a bit too lately. Apartment has been smoke-ified by downstairs neighbor even after countless complaints. Ah, what use is a lease if it isn’t actually worth anything? *sigh*. On the other hand, I’m done with surgery and making a slow, but steady, recovery! (yay!) Although my swollen head closely resembles a chipmunk, I am slowly starting to look like myself again. So I shouldn’t be too scary looking by the time I go back to work. (oh well!).

in Progress: Around + Around … Upside Down?

Sunday, April 18th, 2010

Lots of traveling around NYC and Brooklyn, deep discussions, life, running, puppies, and our little herb garden all contributed to this. Going for the whole half-awake, half-asleep sort of feeling.

And here’s a complementary page outta the sketchbook:

Fairy Tale Feathers Frolic Fruitfully

Tuesday, August 25th, 2009

So I’ve been injected with a new sense of where I’m going (mostly due to some coworkers) … and I’ve finished up the new drawing i started on my vacation in the Adirondack Mountains (Just thought I’d throw in that AuSable Chasm really IS the Grand Canyon of the east… also, the tubing there is … tubacious!). Anyway, here’s the analog half:

and the digital half:
