Pins or Needle

Was really reasonably pretty sure I'd already posted this, but judging by it not being on here, I GUESS I DID NOT. It was one of those using-up-leftover-paint type paintings that I often do, b/c I am a terrible judge of how much paint I actually need at any given time.

I think this happened sometime in the middle of the painting.

Um...hey and here's the painting...!

Heart in Soul

Tried out some woodburning on this one (the outlines of the ribs. I know, you can't really tell in real life, either.) and an a LOT of marker crosshatching.

Little nub arms are one of my favorite things ever.

Art House Sketchbook Project pt2

Yes you are. Good work on that.


Sooooo yo.

Sea Urchins are basically plants. What.


FUCK I LOVE NEON. FUCKKKKKK!!!!


Not sure I could eat someone who was glaring at me like that.


Bugs should have fuzzy ears. Everything should have fuzzy ears.


TOO BAD BUDDY.


Seriously that flower looks like a French tickler.

'Poppy' is so close to 'poopy', and yet I refrained.


I scanned this too small but the So has a little dude as the 'O' who is saying, 'WHAT'. OMG LAYERS.


In my house, it's ALWAYS fucking spider time.


I would grow them if only I could.


Watching too much Discovery Chanel has pretty much completely ruined me for scifi.
Nature is out of her mind.


Silver pen doesn't scan well, so just imagine the faces on the clouds.


I love that the way to go guy totally steals all the focus from the drawings.
Plus he smells like spearmint!

Some sort of farting tentacle-faced caterpillar (non-fuzzy).


OMGAH FINISHED.

Art House Sketchbook Project pt1

Some pages from my Sketchbook Project. Which I managed to procrastinate until THE WEEK BEFORE IT WAS DUE. AAAHHHHHH. My Art House Coop page is over here:
http://arthousecoop.com/users/inguen

My theme was The View from Up Here, to which I added 'Looking Down into the Garden' so I could print out some of the pritty flower photos I've taken and fill up half the page with minimal effort. Also I rather like my pritty flower photos, so fuuuuck you.


That purple guy is basically me.


KEEPIN' IT CLASSY UNTIL ABOUT TWO PAGES IN.


What if you're planted next to another tree, who happens to be a real asshole? You're stuck there beside them forever and you can't kick their ass. I guess you pray for a lightning strike, but that's not terribly likely.


Now made with real leaves! I tried doing the iron-it-between-sheets-of-waxed-paper trick, but apparently I got some safety wax paper or someshit, b/c it would not melt.

Not much to say about this one, altho I do kinda like it.

Actually, those are hearts.

Self-loathing Daisy.

Small Deer in a (Very) Large Space

20x24" commish of the original Small Deer painting, only NOW, IT'S PURPLINAL.

THE EGGPLANTS ARE WATCHING YOU

I love the Eggplant Wizard SO MUCH. Also, too bad angels don't have any junk. Poor Pit.

Sugar, Sugar

Painting for the Day of the Dead themed show at Cactus Gallery in Eagle Rock this month!

It seems like this should have been right up my alley, but it was actually a hard one. There was much swearing and putting it off that went on throughout.

Since sugar skulls are basically what I spend all day at work trying to avoid having to draw, I kept being reminded of work, and then I'd be like YOU KNOW WHAT I SHOULD DO I SHOULD ORGANIZE MY POTS AND PANS and then no painting would get done, again.

I do still exist...

I'm just FINALLY trying to update my website and plus the rest of my life is being ridiculous at the moment so making new things is not even on the map.

HOWEVER. Since I'm going thru all kinds of old art, I am uncovering some SRS GEMS, like this awesome little ball cozy I made for a friend I was rooming with a few years ago. I found this weird little half sock thing on the floor, and decided that what it required was fabric paint.

Project Ethos: Love Sick paintings

I got an email asking to be featured in this year's LA Project Ethos 10 days before the actual show, so there was some amount of AAAAAAFUCK PAINT that took place over that week and a half. Luckily, I came up with a bunch of new paintings, and things turned out pretty surprisingly decent.

Sketchy Mini Paintings

A few little dudes from last week. These things are the perfect size for my attention span, which is NONEXISTANT.

Oh those butts! Who doesn't love em?


I won't be entirely satisfied with my life until it involves a porch an' a jugband in some capacity.


Octopi should have eyebrows. They just should.
