Small Paintings on Wood




These are paintings I was selling at the design fiesta a while ago. While making them I was tyring not to think about selling them, (and I did not sell very many), and I like a lot of them, so I am glad to still have them. Although they will probably change hands at some point. I am particularly into the series of female nudes with the chartreuse green. Here they are just scanned in batches, you can see them in person on top of my window ledges in my bedroom.

Nan After Being Battered, 1984


I've seen this photo before when I first looked at Nan Goldin's work and liked it. I found it again the other day during Studio Kids when we were collaging from old Art Forum magazines and I tore it out and took it home. I think this was the inspiration for my driver's licence picture, but I didn't consciously realize it till after.

Studio Kids


I drew ONLY the face in the bottom left hand corner, while TA'ing and later one of the kids asked me who the portrait was of, and I said "oh it's just a doodle!"
While cleaning up at the end of the day I found the piece of paper transformed into this!

Into the Wild


Owen, I wish you would post more about your adventures in the wild, but you are probably too busy hiking in your namesake Teva shoes!

Now That School is Over...


I will have more time for linger activities like blog posting. I won't be busy with work till the end of May, so I will have more free time than lingers are comfortable with. I foresee a lot of not being able to get out of bed and regretting wasting time and not being productive.
On a more related note, this blog is about all things Nerdlinger, so I will start with a small sample list of NL activities:
1. Watching "Lost" on the school computers, streaming it from ABC.com on a Sat. night.
2. Don't talk to Strange Nerdlingers, they are harmless but will wrap you up in boring conversations like (Oh, do you live there, I always wondered what it looked like on the inside? Is there a lot of old wood?)
3. Nerdlingers evolutionary younger sibling is the lizardlinger.
4. Whenever you spot a NL in public, you have to point it out to whoever your with, or you by default are a Nerdlinger.
