The Hero Factory

March 28th, 2009

The Hero Factory is a super great way to spend time you should spend sleeping or doing homework. Here’s your new procrastination activity: create your own superhero. They’ll even name it for you and give you a comic book cover. Ian did his, and here’s mine. They named me “The Talented Splintery Condor” but when [...]

Praying in Circles

February 9th, 2009

I found myself with an assignment this weekend to create a prayer mandala. It’s been awhile since I whipped out the crayons and colored pencils.

The Sofia Coppola Time of Year

January 26th, 2009

As February draws near, I hear the siren song of Sofia Coppola’s three film meditations on being young, lonely and female. I recently found some alternative poster art for Lost in Translation- I like how each is a different interpretation of the story- and how very Sofia some of them are. “Everyone Wants To Be [...]

My Story Teller in Shades of Bone, Birch and Branch

January 21st, 2009

Andrew Wyeth passed away last week at age 91. I don’t consider myself very fluent in visual arts, its just not how my brain works, but I’ve always been drawn to artists who tell me stories in colors that feed me. Andrew Wyeth has been one of those artists. I think I became mildy obsessed [...]
