Instant Views from Space

I don't use twitter but astronauts do and having almost instant views from space is a pretty cool use of it.

Venus, Paris

Now it's on a shirt! Available at D-Structure.

Hashima

Hashima, or Gunkanjima (Battleship Island), a 15 acre island owned by Mitsubishi for coal mining until 1974 sits rotting off the coast of Nagasaki. Boats are allowed to travel to the island since last year, though you're "not permitted to enter the structures." Now added to my fantasy travel list along with Prypiat, Ukraine, Varosha, Famagusta, and I guess Detroit.

Classy As Fuck

Adult Flavored Pudding art up at Sub-Mission for this art and music extravaganza on Saturday.

Cosmonaut

Not bad for my first try - 4 year old clay, a bamboo skewer, and a steak knife.
Polymer clay, acrylic, and spray paint.

Watercolors

I'm on a watercolor/pen 'n ink kick now. Spending the last couple years trying to hone my acrylic skills and I forgot how free and easy watercolors can be.

D-Structure

Forgot to mention that I have some pieces up right now in the group show area at D-Structure on Haight Street. Really cool store that I discovered pretty soon after we got down here so I'm stoked.

World Hunter

It's always nice when I can start and finish something in the same day. And a bonus if it looks cool!

Logo Flavored Hat

Got the first fitted hat in the other day with the alternate logo. Pretty sharp. Happy with how it turned out.

Balloon Dog Under Attack

Not how I thought it was going to turn out - I'm happy with the individual pieces, but the whole thing doesn't do it for me. First time making balloon animals was fun..didn't pop a one!

Scream Queens

Baseball Giants

I'll always love the Mariners but it's nice to be around some winners here. Hoping I can use the Giants playoff tickets I scored got me sifting through images of the pre-San Francisco Giants. Originally founded in 1883 as the Gothams they played at the Polo Grounds in New York until 1957. Not sure why Babe Ruth is wearing a Giants uniform, but the caption says it's an exhibition game.

Animation Tribute to Tim Burton

TiM, by Ken Turner. A little animated tribute to Tim Burton.

Samurai Swords

Always, always, always wanted some of these and I finally got them. $19.95 in Chinatown, I said I'd be back! The blade will crumple on the first perp, but that's why there's two more.
