set painting for dummies

noreply@blogger.com (Benjamin) — Sat, 01 Nov 2008 17:03:00 +0000

got hired back in april to paint and dress a set for the play "Frankenstein" along with my friend matt biringer. carpentry by thad livingston. you'd never believe the whole thing is made of luan and bubblegum. also, special thanks to (the always lovely) katie poinsett.

eh, i'm never gonna finish this.

Commission from back in March(?) but i haven't had internet access for about 6 months so HERE IT IS! Not my best composition, but hey, I got to paint those hands. Big shout out to Linc for making a sweet uncut wood frame for it.

I have totally been a non-artworking person lately, but I bought a tattoo gun the other day! So maybe I'll scar some people for life soon and post pictures here.

I never update! Ah well, lots of stuff has been going on. Went to Las Vegas and drove to a bunch of cool canyons out west. Made a couple paintings (coming soon). But the big deal for me right now is that I'm learning some web programming languages called PHP and MySQL.

I have never concentrated so much in my life. I'm not sure what is going to become of all this, but it's going to be very cool. Hopefully I can get some kind of web game off the ground. Make some money. Do something with my life. We'll see.

open for biz

noreply@blogger.com (Benjamin) — Wed, 12 Sep 2007 20:32:00 +0000

The Store is now open. I've only got a handful of things on there right now, but I'll put up whatever I don't sell in person in the future. Just gotta figure out how to ship paintings...

BUY SOMETHING

Thanks so much to everyone that made it out to the show. I know it was a hell of a long drive for some of you, but you helped make it a success. For those that couldn't make it, it went something like this:

i've always had a fascination with smokers. i've tried for years to pick up the habit, but it's just too hard. i guess between biting my nails and chewing my lips, i have enough freudian fixations happening.
