Rug Making

It occurred to me one day that a drawing I'd made would make more sense as a rug. So I've been working on turning one of my Skateboard Drawings into a rug. It's taking longer than I had thought it would, but here is where I'm at:

Time Capsule Lightbox

Made to mark the occasion of a friend's baby being born:

Pressure sensitive switch turns the light on as the box is opened.

A new machine:

Globe Drawing Machine Lamps

A recent experiment to find a way to make clear globes to draw in with Drawing Machine 12.



The globes are made with epoxy resin and fiberglass cloth (learned from some boat making).

Tiltfocus

My new favorite site allows any image to be turned into a tilt focus looking miniature. Very addictive.

This is a quick test from an image from Rome.

My Kitchen Floor

Walked on for two days and drawn on for 80+ hours:

Back from Kansas City. The show looks really great. Lots of work went into it with many 5am bedtimes, but the result is really great. We're all very proud:

metal again

Have you seen Heavy Metal in Baghdad? Well, you should. But if you haven't, NYTimes.com has an article about the band in the film.

Wha huh?

This is incredibly interesting (but substitute the hydrogen fuel cell with a rechargeable battery):
