Check out this cut paper animation that I found! The artists name is Lotte Reiniger. I think that I might try to figure out how to do this.

I did a Talk 20 presentation last night and let me tell you, 20 seconds never seemed so short as when  you’re trying to keep up with your images flying along behind you.

Anyway, I thought I should post some links to some printmaking places so people can find stuff if they are interested.

So:

Tandem Press (in Madison, WI)

Hui Press (in Hawaii)

Tamarind Institute (at the University of New Mexico)

Michael Barnes

Lenore Thomas (my former professor)

Art On Paper (magazine)

Natalya Pinchuk Felt and metal and all around goodness.

Katie Redford- I found this quote about Katie’s work: “Katherine Redford also uses traditional fiber techniques, but she uses metal in her obsessive weaving and stitching. Her objects, though small, have a kind of stately scale, an odd ability to make room for themselves by seeming to have already existed, before she dreamed them up. This quality of . . . what is it, a phenomenological mandate? is something that good sculpture tends to have. Such works are images of the preexisting, embodiments of a state of affairs that existed before they were made. Such a sculpture is made, apparently, to be a house for an entity that is already alive. It’s a bit uncanny, and mysterious.”  I tend to think that they’re kind of funny.

Teresa Faris…wonderful, talented, intelligent, witty, and sometimes, slightly frightening.

Hi all, I’ve been trying to blog more but I find that my blogging is inversely correlated to the amount of work that I get done…

Anyway, I’m working on a couple of sculptures (to be shown in our closing show here in the Showroom at Hub-Bub [149 S. Daniel Morgan Ave.][opening March 25 {my birthday}] YEA!) and they have made my already cluttered studio fairly unworkable. I’ve got to finish some of these before I can start on anything new. I took a picture for objective confirmation of this slovenly state of affairs but I can’t find my camera cord at the moment so you’ll have to take my word for it. Those of you who know me will surely understand that when I say its become too cluttered, it has become too cluttered.

In other news: I’m planning to go to Savanah on Friday to see some friends who are in town for the Society of North American Goldsmiths (SNAG) conference (my old roommate Chris {who will be at the upcoming conference} is in the bottom picture on the right hand side of the screen wearing a gray shirt {make no mistake, he is dirtier in person than he may seem in the photo}). Fun will be had, no doubt. In honor of the conference (and to try to maintain/obtain habituation to blogging), I will be posting a metalsmith on my blog everyday this week.

Carry on.

This is just to let everyone know that I got accepted to the MFA printmaking program at the University of Georgia-Athens.  I’m still waiting on word from Arizona State and the University of New Orleans.

This podcast is pretty good… Toffee Sunday Smash

Episode #18 is an early favorite.  Dutch psychedelic-guest curated  by Dirk from Cities on Flame With Rock and Roll   (please note this blog is very sad…you are warned)
