East Austin Studio Tour time again! This year my housemate Aaron Bir was supremely prepared for EAST, and had a great first showing. Read all about it here.  I did the rounds again, and after attending for three years now, found that many artists either had the same work, or were doing new work indistinguishable from the old.  There were a few great exceptions, and some exciting new artists, but I didn’t catalogue my finds like I did last year.  I encourage anyone who hasn’t yet checked out the event for themselves to explore next year.  There’s even a possibility kicking around that you might get to explore our own house studio…

Exploring some real paint again.

I have the terrible affliction of not being able to resist a good pun, or a bad pun. (I’m not sure there actually are any good puns….) So when I needed a pincushion, I didn’t go out like a sensible person and buy one, nor did I make a cute, easy little strawberry or pumpkin, no! I couldn’t get ‘Arthur Pindragon’ out of my head, so I spent several hours cracking myself up, sewing this little guy. At least someone had fun.
