Battling the Why-Isn't-Your-Room_Clean Monster!

The only thing that can distract the Monster from its rampage is...........an A++ Report Card!

"Dangle"

So Here's Dangle, one of the main characters of Matt 'n I's current (Well, one of .. we have many) Projects. He was originally being made as a Stop Motion Puppet, but I decided to just make him a pose-able figure...for self motivational purposes . He's made from a sweater sleeve, two t-shirt sleeves, some felt, Wire, epoxy, foam and Sculptie. I hand-sewed all his clothes, and even "embroidered" that little heart on. See more pictures of this guy over at my Blog. :)

"That's not a songbird..."

Did I mention that I've been obsessed with Color Burn recently???

Vertigo

Sometimes I get dizzy....any constructive criticism is welcomed....

Octopus!

Me and a friend have a painting challenge going to try and get us to paint more. Here's my first attempt at painting in, oh, 2-3 years?
I got this strange octopus Christmas ornament late last year. It's sparkly and shiny, so I decided to paint it. Let me know what you think.

The final piece is 5x7 done in acrylic.

mini painting

I'm taking a painting class again! Our homework was to do a 2"x2" portrait in oil paint. It's really really hard to paint that small...especially when you don't have any good small brushes.

Still not in love with oils. Watercolor seems so much easier....and cleaner.

OHHHHHHhhhhh wheresa my brotha?

Very grumpy Luigi.

Is Luigi green with envy....eh, EH?

I mean his brother is sooooooooooo popular. That fat bitch.

What was that!

So.. here's a something I did the other day. I don't know why I'm addicted to that Ghost Hunters show .. its so fake.. I'm gonna go ahead and blame my childhood for that one, because if there's one thing that it taught me, it's that there's " Two in the Box, Ready to go... We be Fasts.. and THEY BE SLOW" ... and to "Never Cross the Streams"

Happy Ghost hunting,

Pepe

more Dr Sketchy's!

Themes be damned!

Last Saturday's Dr Sketchy session: a tribute to The Legend of Zelda, with the beautiful Justine Joli as female Link.

theme(s) for December

This month is always crazy, one reason for this is travel! If you are taking a long flight or even if you are just traveling on the subway, all the other people traveling or "enjoying" the holiday spirit in the city make your normal travels even more crazy. So share any kind travel related stories, rants, images, songs, films, or even route maps!

Where does the stuffing go?

In advance...I apologize.

More Food

Yes, I have a problem.

All Da Pumpkins

Anyone who's encountered me at any event where food is offered has surely heard me complain about overeating-related stomach pains. During this season it gets worse because I LOVE PUMPKIN EVERYTHING!

"The Prickly Pear"

Hi Friends,

So I had a little stream of consciousness sketch session the other day with food in mind and this is the strangeness I came up with. I want to see more posts, people! This sketch took all of ten minutes! Get your creative on! Its everyone's favorite- food!

I am an air head

Seriously...as of this moment my head is full of air...silence....nothing. I'm attempting to work on a short film of my own and am having an extreme case of writer's block.

I'm posting this not to ask for ideas but rather to inquire about everyone's methods for how they generate their own.

Do your ideas come to you in a dream? Do you see a message in your cereal? Do you visit a fortune teller? What?

I appreciate anyone willing to reveal their tactics used to acquire inspiration. If you're unwilling or unable, I will be satisfied if you expose any RPG addiction you have (or have had) so I can justify my obsession with Dragon Age.

Thank you in advance.

And it's food related ..yay!

So with the combination of our addiction to the show 'CAKE BOSS' and Matt's Birthday .. it was decided to make an awesome FlapJack cake. Here's how our efforts panned out. Anne Marie ( Matt's girl friend, for those not familiar) bake us the cakes and help with the Fondant, ( AKA the sugeriest thing on the face of the planet) which we used for the whale's blue skin. She also made up the different colors for the modeling chocolete 'Flap Jack' and 'K'Nuckles'. Matt Sculpted that sweet K'Nuckles figure out of diffent colored chocolete and I sculpted the Flap Jack. As far as how it tasted .. you'll have to ask someone who ate it .. all I had was Flap Jacks head ... his sweet sweet solid chocolete scupted head ... Ugghh my tummys starting to hurt again just thinking about it ..
