Ye Olde Businesse Carde...

Actually this is my NEW business card that I designed today. 

I'll be working like a madwoman in my studio this week to churn out fresh merch for an upcoming art fair. More "deets" about that later in the week.  So stay tuned!

 

What you should do in your kitchen...

Film Pick...All About Eve

I saw this film for the first time this year and loved it. It's a wonderfully entertaining story about a worshipful theatre fan, Eve Harrington, played by Anne Baxter. I don't want to give away any more of the plot because it's full of little twists and turns - you should just see it for yourself. And Bette Davis is fantastic as Margo Channing, the fiery but vulnerable actress who's afraid she may be over the hill. I find her fascinating to watch in general. She always seems so at ease in her skin and completely natural, like she's not acting at all. 

Black Friday Board Game...

Hey look! It's your favorite Black Friday Board Game!

Class Struggle!!

But according to the box, if you're over 80 years old, forget it. 

SORRY! 

I bought this game at a flea market. I thought it would be a hilarious thing to have lying around the house. I tried to figure out how to play it once, but gave up while reading the instructions, which are 24 pages long, single spaced. 

It looks like fun in a bun though.

Don't it?

A Pilgrim's Invitation...

My Turkey Pinata

I finally finished it!! 

My turkey pinata is done and I filled it with...  stuffing, mashed potatoes, and gravy!!! So what if it makes a huge mess. That's part of the fun. 

Happy Thanksgiving!

Minicomic gem...'Magic Johnson' by Nick Sumida

I bought this one a while ago, at the now-closed and much-missed 'Happy Birthday Mike Leslie' store in Worcester, MA. 

The cover is a work of art, literally. It's silkscreened on heavy print stock. I really like Nick Sumida's drawing style. There's a sense of freedom and a slightly crazed, childlike quality to it, while at the same time it's obvious that he's a highly skilled artist. Plus the writing's great. I especially enjoyed the comic documentary, "Imelda Marcos, A Short History." Check it out!
