Drawing some mustaches tonight while trying to get Miles to go to bed at a decent hour. 10 PM is not a decent hour.

New films should be arriving tomorrow, so I hope to have some finished pieces by early next week.

I did some sketching last night on panels to match the last ones I finished. My plan for these is to do a long stretch of panels, each being able to stand on it's own but if put together would make a kind of landscape. I also did some doodling of different Boo heads; I'm not sure what these guys are going to turn into. Stay tuned. 

I printed two of three colors of a new print inspired by the Bemidji Dragon Boat Festival last night. I ran out of films so the third will have to wait until I get them in the mail early this week. The main print is on top, then I used the little extra space on the parent sheet to so another small print based on some doodles. More later.

It might be a little hard to make out, but those are washers and wire nails. Screen is burning…

Between doing a bunch of things around the house, including trying to get our house to sell, I finally got these two finished, clear coated, and ready to hang. 

I’ve been playing some NES games lately, some Zelda, Metroid, Super Mario Brothers (yes, I still have my original NES, but play them also on Homebrew) and the backgrounds of Super Mario 3 inspired these. I’d already kind of made something similar on my iPhone through Brushes, but I felt better with a brush in my hands than using my finger on a screen. Running across worlds in SMB3 there are tons of objects with eyes staring back at the player from the background, and this is my take on their “Blank Stare”.

Each are 9×12”, graphite and latex paint on raised wood panel.
