My favorite media bookmarking site has been revamped, but as far as I can tell, it’s not the same. I guess I am going to start posting inspiration here.

LANGUAGE OF ANXIETY
This series of illustrations replaces traditional references to anxiety with regard to self-esteem, body image, security and safety that admit greater complexity by imagining what it would look like if our feelings of panic if they appeared pleasant or pretty.

Dear Friends,
I fell off the horse! It hurt. So I got back on….and now we’re starting at a slow pace, moving towards a steady cantor in artmaking.
You know, I don’t like horse metaphors.
So the truth is: I’ve been letting my mind wander and overcommit to some of my Ad School projects, all the while missing painting, but not painting. Call it artist’s block, or grad student’s stress, what have you.
But it’s no good - not painting. So here I am.
At the moment, I am working on a comissioned piece and a new series that explores mixing typography, texture and the relationships between them.
Until then, please enjoy some of the creative work I’ve been doing since we last spoke.
Hero.
