august 25: wayzgoose
i went to the svc wayzgoose in seattle. this is the first year sky shipley of skyline type foundry participated. he had a table full of shiny, brand-new type and i was pretty freaking excited, so i gave him nearly all my money before the wayzgoose even started (ie, before i made any money selling my work). so here's the drawing in 3 parts:
1. standing in front of table full of type (see how each little box says, "type" on it?) with my eyes bugging out of my head.
2. i have selected two fonts (one border font and one pretty, pretty set of 24pt glyptic, in case you're interested) and the words say, "yay type! i must have you!"
3. (on the left) a customer hands me money and says, "i would like to buy this thing to support your type habit." i am on the right with my giant smile a foot in front of my face.
august 29: i am a complete idiot sometimes
long story, but this is the first day in months i have had the freaking house to myself. this is another 3 part drawing:
1. i arrive home to a wonderfully empty house.
2. i go out for my daily walk/run.
3. as i am returning home i suddenly realize i stupidly forgot to bring my house key with me. (those are my eyes bugging out of my head, which they seem to do fairly often in these drawings)
i sat on the porch for an hour watching maru videos on youtube on my phone while waiting for the locksmith to show up, getting colder as it got later. finally got into my house at 10:00 and was finally able to make dinner. cold and hungry lisa = unhappy lisa.
