december 2, 2012 - mix master

sometimes clients don't give me a pantone number for an ink color, they hand me something else to match, like a ribbon. this is no problem, because i am an ink mix master. as it turned out, the ribbon i was given was the perfect red, which i have found difficult to achieve. i found out recently (about 10 months after this triumphant day), this magical red i mixed is actually a pantone. but i thought of it myself, which makes me a genius ink mix master.

november 25, 2012 - website is hard work

sometimes when i work on my website i feel like my eyes are dried up and bugging out of my head from staring at the computer screen so intently. scanning a pile of blind night drawings and making lots of new posts is a little like that, also.



november 21, 2012 - brine that turkey


































one day i heard alton brown on the radio and he convinced me to brine my turkey. i had never brined anything before and i thought it best to keep it a secret from my mom until after it was declared delicious or not, because she hates change. it was declared delicious by all and i was victorious.

november 16, 2012 - anybody out there?



































i think this was the holiday art sale at pratt. no one seemed interested in going upstairs to the super cool, super fun, super interesting letterpress studio to make a print.
