Mark thine calendars: August 16

Saturday, July 26th, 2008

Halloh halloh

Go grab a pen. Or a pencil. I’ll hang out here for a sec. Melted eyeliner is fine, so long as it writes.

Okay, have it? Lovely. Mark thine calendar for August 16, as the art show I’ve had under my hat for a while (pending fliers and further details, completed paintings, an oufit to wear, etc.) is now perfectly ready to be announced.

It’s a group show at Box 8 near downtown with some seriously talented fashion photographers and artists. Really, it’s a honor to be involved. I’ll be showing around 10 new pieces, some of which have been previewed here. So do make a note, and I’ll fill you in on further details as they come down the pike.

For now, a flier:

I’ll see you peeps on the 16th. Until then, back to the easel.

High fives,

Bad hair, good website

Monday, July 21st, 2008

It’s past midnight on a Sunday, which generally marks a dread that only a lurching, encroaching Monday can bring. I myself have a relatively bitchin’ job, so Sunday night presents only modest amounts of fear and dread, most of which are related to sleep deprivation.

Webmaster MC Dangerpants is sitting next to me pecking away at an identical MacBook–with the Smiths on iTunes–and we’re about to launch the new site. Our hair looks awful. Dangerpants is sporting an unruly, bratty afro, and my own has seemed to disband from its para-dreadlocked state into a web-like frizz. But the good news is that the site is almost done, which means we’ll make it live, which means I can sleep.

Despite our hair looking awful, the site looks radass. New paintings, new prints, a blog, a mailing list sign up…it’s like Christmas for me, only more like Hannukka because there’s a bunch of presents, some of which we’ll be rolling out over a few days. Also, not that you care, but I totally want to eat some of those chocolate coins right now.

Please rock on and thanks for checking the site, peeps.

Most sincerely,
