MY HUMBLE BEGINNINGS
The guy before me on the list introduces himself when I first get to the bar. He seems like a nice person. I watch him perform. He says he just got out of a mental institution. His entire set is about having sex with animals. Then they call my name. This is the first time I…
Front View
This is what facing Glendale looks like from our house (well, one angle). From other places you can actually see the Americana. It’s behind all the dark trees.
I couldn’t decide which of these I liked better. The softer light zoomed in or the sharper, more saturated and zoomed out version.
The sharper mountains are my favorite part though.
Polar Bears
Fake invitation I made last year. I didn’t think it fit with my newer stuff but I still like it.
Nail Art: Scales and Triangles
I was on a trip and didn’t realize until a week and a half into this nail polish job that my iPad can take photos (yes, I pat myself on the back for not giving in to smart phone ownership… yet) so I managed to get this before it all chipped off. I probably need a better top coat. I couldn’t make up my mind on which design to stick with so I did two. The black were supposed to be like scales but I was falling asleep while doing this and they sort of mashed together into something more abstract.
I found a few somewhat long video tutorials on how to make scales that made this seem sort of complicated. I went ahead and made these design steps into single images just in case anyone else wants to try them.
Fruit Bat
I got bored in the middle something else I was working on and drew a fruit bat.
Wind Blocks
I was inspired to make this because of a black and white collage I saw of an astronaut hanging out with some floating cubes. I tried to find the photo again but couldn’t. Anyway, I don’t think it fits into my portfolio right now so here it is on tumblr!

I couldn’t make up my mind on what I wanted to do here.
It’s mostly a mess but also turned out sort of cool. Also, I keep forgetting to photograph these until about three days later.

I especially thought #7 and #10 were interesting juxtapositions.
