The Time Machine
Check out this vintage book cover from an old paperback I picked up this weekend at the Friends of the Library book sale. Fifty cents for awesome art and a classic novel. The wear on this is perfect and I'm loving the block of type on the back cover. Not to mention the equally compelling composition of the cover art and its rhythmic relationship with the letterforms. Plus, the conceptual connection with the plot's theme of space (positive/negative) and time (repetition/rhythm). One of my many great finds!

Tiger egg
This here's the first of a series of animal eggs. Although, the form of the egg has absolutely nothing to do with a tiger in the literal sense, I think it's nice to see something unexpected on its surface. I've come to realize that I love painting on wood. These little sculptures are my way of transitioning into doing what I ultimately want to do--that is, making toys or movable sculpture. Going from 2-D to 3-D is especially exciting because of its tangibility. It's not meant to hang on your wall and be admired from a certain distance, while keeping a safe amount of space between you and the art. It's a tactile experience. You're meant to walk around it, hold it in your hand, and pour over every inch of its surface. That's the kind of intimacy I always strive for.
