Sunday already?

Weekend walk in the park, and clementines, which means winter is coming.

New Paintings

Woman and Wolf, acrylic on wood diptych, 24" x 24"

Linos

These are some linocut experiments from last spring. While I'm loving the painting/drawing program so far, I do miss printmaking. Next semester I'm seriously torn up over a scheduling conflict between figure painting or letterpress.

In with the old

Garage sales are the best thing in the world. Especially if you're a broke-ass art student (ahem). Summertime in Toronto is the perfect time to pick ups awesome garage sale finds, if you can handle the 40 degree heat. I picked up this chintzy yet awesome round mirror last weekend (it's looking quite oval here - it's just the strange angle) and I can't help but think that with a good SCRUB and a coat of paint, this would be a great addition to my front hall.

Here's my predicament: what colour should I paint it?
So far I'm considering white, matte grey, and turqoise.
WEIGH IN!

p.s. the steady stream of silly/grainy camera phone pictures will end as soon as I buy a USB cord for my camera. I promise!

Summer food

Lemon curd blueberry tarts and sangria in my backyard for bookclub (until the mosquitos drove us inside).

What I'm wearing to work tomorrow

Striped shirt - Joe Fresh, suede wedges - Dolce Vita, chain necklace - Biko, Nars blush (Orgasm).

I'm also currently watching Little Dorrit, a BBC minisiries based on the Charles Dickens work. It's insanely good and highly addictive, whether you're an anglophile or not (I am). Strongly recommended.


I mean, just look at that face... he wants you to...

Bits of my weekend

A weekend of drinking wine and reading on my back porch, new flora (please let me not kill it!), and redecorating my apartment. A home-tour is soon to come!
