i watched the virgin spring (1960) recently & i’ve been thinking about it alot since.

especially gunnel lindblom as ingeri. i’m really into the way bergman tells medieval stories. the seventh seal has been my favorite film for years.

still working on my commission for janet. above is a taste of it haha.

making collard greens tonight to share with my building-mates.

hello

spring is here in seattle and it has been sunny and wet. this is my first post on my first ever blog, so bear with me as we settle in & i figure this medium out.

i would like this blog to be focused around my projects, be it art, music, or whatever. just what ever i happen to be working on — little updates, accomplishments, set backs, thoughts, dreams, & so on. a loose & ongoing project diary if you will.
hopefully it will be interesting!

so in that spirit, i would like to share that most recently i have completed a very fun & lovely project for my friend jade. they asked me to complete 3-4 large drawing of flowers on massive 3′ wide rolls of colored paper they had been collecting, for a background in the video they are shooting for their band, 129,600.
i immediately had The Flower in mind — the one i had doodled all over my day sheets over the summer, long and bendy, elegant and ragged. i wanted to feel out how the pieces should look, so i had some fun experimenting with the big paper and wide brushes dipped in sumi ink. i got some pieces i enjoyed out of my experiments, including the one pictured above. below is a pic i snapped of two of the finished pieces. the thrill & rush of the line, made quickly with no plan, was what i was after really.

also took on a commission for a poster commemorating my friend janet’s first show & last day in Maine. might draw some lobsters, and lighthouses, and moose? also imagining portraits of Janet & Bryan playing together for some reason… still dreaming at it.

well, that’s all so far! some daily practices i’ve been trying to get into have been painting (acrylic & at my kitchen table), as well as my modular synth music. i have some vague ideas of how to go about ‘composing’ with my limited rig ~ dreaming of dub radio remixes and transexual seventies parties.
