Sam is 14!

And Minecraft crazy, so I made him a Minecraft cake!

I ’specially like how well the chocolate chip hooves turned out on the sheep.

And it got a “Best birthday cake ever!” from the kids, so I’m happy.

Someone posted this gorgeous sculpture on Facebook. The artist was not mentioned, but thankfully, my friend Scot Robinson saved the day by knowing the piece and her creator, Paige Bradley. She’s so gorgeous and powerful I can’t help but want to share her!

As much as I love art, it is not that frequently that a sculpture speaks to me as strongly as this one does. I love it. The smoothness of the lines, the realism of the body and muscles, the harsh edges of the cracks and the blazing light juxtaposed with the peacefulness of her expression. I can feel myself cracking open with her. Absolutely beautiful.

Thank you, Paige Bradley.

Woot, woot, Sam’s famous!

Page 009 (Lamps with eyes are the best kind of lamps. I’d totally buy that lamp.)

Page 010 (Oh wait no that’s no lamp. Shocking twist. What is even this guy’s deal with these lamps.)

Page 011 (PLOT!! That’s a sound effect that needs to be used in comics more often.)

Page 012 (Shocking twist #2. Man Lekku what is even up with your mane in that last panel. Brush strokes eternal.)

Page 013 (Motion blur always. I have to draw those couches so many times i will just drop a spaceship on one, which just actually happened. Oh wait now it’s harder to draw. Dang)

Page 014 (See, when you cut something with a sword that looks like a peeled banana it clearly can’t be fixed. This is what happens in my world.)

How many couches CAN I destroy???????? Next on Cosmos!

Also, previous 4 pages are here; and the first two are here.

You may recall way back when I’d applied for a sculpting job with a pin-making company and they had me sculpt a chinese dragon? And I didn’t get it, and was bummed?

Well, they finally delivered the dragon

(click for see all three dragons)

and cat pins(and paid me for them!). Yay!

(Click to see all four kittehs).

You can order them from me, too!

Happy Egg Day!

Sam was at his dad’s for Easter, so I decided to paint an egg just for myself.

The dancer was inspired by this lovely photo.

And on the other side…

Sweet, yes?

Serious firedancing.

In New Guinea, they take their firedancing seriously.

Peruse this set thoroughly for amazing tribal bodypainting, beautiful people and evidence that money actually CAN grow on trees.

Please vote for my T-shirt design!
