More silly knock off papercuts. I went to a wonderful harvest party on Saturday. We left so we could watch the Doctor Who premier.
This is an imagined attendant at the harvest party dancing with a Dalek scarecrow.
I feel like we should have stayed at the party because it featured a live band; and no matter what, live music is better than recorded television.

I’ve been busy lately on two different commissions and the headaches of framing up what I’ve already completed. I’ve got about 6 more designs that are almost finished and ready to start cutting on after a few more alterations. I was asked to make something Lovecraftian recently. I’ve been doodling around on how to combine H.P. Lovecraft with my generally Victorian/folklore/fable tone. I probably wont be able to get started on it for a while, but this is one of the rough things I’ve been messing around with.
Several people have asked where to get one of the Paradigm t-shirts I designed. They are now available here.
This took forever to make. There were many delays and things I had to deal with that are not very interesting to talk about. I also took a mini vacation to Minneapolis.
So anyway, I was listening to a lot of John Cale and Tindersticks when I designed it almost a month ago. I’m sure if I had finished this earlier, I would have quite a bit more to say.
As much as I like it, I’m kind of glad to have this one behind me.

This was inspired by a song from my friend Eiren Caffall.
I’m looking forward to days ahead.
Sometimes joking around with your friends yields positive results.
I made a preliminary version of this last week, but I had some time on Friday to improve the design (and Sunday to re-cut it out).
Presto…Bang-o…
I don’t know why, but it took me forever to make this. Having a horrible cold most of last week and getting everything in order for my last week as Postmaster this week didn’t help. I was listening to ‘I’m Nobody’s Baby Now’ by Reparata & the Delrons a few weeks ago and thought of this. It’s basically about living life alone.

What do you do when your cold is preventing you from using a razor blade to make new things?
You use chop saws, scroll saws, drills, scrap wood and spray paint; much more safe.
