Excuses

Hello hello hello!

Sorry it's been awhile. I totally expected to be bombarding my lovely followers with posts in lieu with my procrastinatory habits. Ah well.

I've been working diligently (or so I'd love to think) on my show this summer with Marcy Starz at Beep Beep. We just settled on a title - "Willful Wiles." I'm very, very excited to see it come together and watch the dynamic our work creates in the space together. I'm also excited to debut my new work. It's been really difficult not to show them off. I actually already let one slip...

"Redemption"

11" x 14"

I've been nearing a financial rut, so I released it to encourage some early print sales. [Click on the image to visit my shop!] Alas, no more teasers until the show, which is July 9th.

I think it is okay to share some progress photos, though! Here are a few:

 

  

 

Otherwise, I've been busying myself with side projects including drinking lots of iced tea, watching Veronica Mars and Doctor Who (um, Matt Smith is my newest crush), and making this paper cut card for my parents-in-law's 32nd wedding anniversary...

I had never made a paper cut anything before (other than on my unwitting fingers), so it's a little jaggedy, but I think it turned out well!

Speaking of in-laws, my mom-in-law, Micki Cavanah of Reed's Gold Leaf Studios, is doing a giveaway on her facebook page for three super cute/creepy gilded cicada shells! Head on over to enter to win one of these cuties.

Lastly, I've also just picked up a fun and exciting album art job. I can't wait to get it underway and show it off!

In other, other news, I'm just about stocked up and ready to go for the upcoming Artlantis Art and Music Festival and the Indie Craft Experience. I'm still looking toborrow a 10' x 10' canopy tent thing for the former, so if anyone has any leads, please let me know!

I think that's it for now!
