Sanded and ready for molding

So tonight, I sanded down the cloud-y guy, and put a new face on him. This one has the eyes a little farther apart. I'm not sure if I like it better or not. I'm so happy with the way this guy looks now. I wasn't sure it would sand down as well as it did. Can't wait to see how he looks in white. Think this is gonna be really nice. I'll blog the molding and casting process soon.

Muse

This is a sketch for a new foamboard piece I'm planning. It's an updated depiction of Euterpe, the muse of music. The final version will have the same rounded edge on the bottom as is shown here on the top. Just adding a bit to the workblog section of this page.

New Banner for Etsy!

Click for the full size version, but I just wanted to share the new banner that I made for my etsy.com site ChilledMonkeyBrains

The original was garnering criticism for being too graphic, and too dark, so I decided to choose a different tack. Ordinarily I wouldn't give a damn, because I think all art offends somebody somewhere, but in this case it just seemed like bad marketing. I mean, Etsy is largely peopled by moms who knit, so why piss them off right off the bat? Why not draw them in, and then have them click around before pissing them off?

hehe.

Seriously though, I hope it's a little more palatable, and makes me a few more customers than the last one did. I'll make a zombie monkey brain print for the true aficionados

More not Haiti stuff.

I'm lame for not finishing my Haiti reminisces. Here's a picture of a moth to make up for it. This little guy was sitting on the Buddha that Cara gave me before she left for Haiti. That's kinda like posting more stories isn't it?

okay. Fine. It's nothing like that. But it's all I gots for now.
