Not done, but progress

June 30, 2009

So I did some painting last night.  I finished up laying the base coast on the cuttlefish in the morning. The paints were being terribly behaved in the muggy weather, and I was ready to go Jackson Pollack on the canvas.

Joy and glee and wondrousness.  I managed to finish up the monster piece to my satisfaction, and i love it. It’s fun and joyful and ridiculous.

Then I also got the cuttlefish sketched in, and laid down the background for that piece.  I bring you a sneak preview.

June 15, 2009

I’ve been feeling a little musically stagnant of late. That’s a big deal.  It is almost unheard of for me to have nothing i *want* to listen to.
Decided to work on that this morning listening to Sound Roots for ideas of new things.  This was after looking at new posts on Hype Machine and generally […]
