Mrs. Peacock in the Library with the Revolver

As promised, I am posting my first CLUE today. Unfortunately mine doesn't involve Tim Curry.

Meet Samson.

Unlike the original Samson my sturdy guy doesn't posses any long locks that (if cut) might vanquish his strength.

He is solid.

Not only is he tall dark and handsome, but he also has some pretty awesome moves. And yet he himself is very difficult to move...being 1,500 pounds.

He is ready to move tons (literally) of paper.

He's ready to roll.

And only time will tell what we're capable of with our powers combined.

It was tasty and complemented perfectly by a squeeze of lime!

Sunday was wonderful because for the first time in months Tyrone wasn't the only one able to take a nap in the middle of the day.

And you know it can't be a bad day when you get to have a tasty bowl of Life for breakfast. Especially when eaten out of a fantastic Coca-Cola bowl initially spied at this place by my red bearded friend, David.

A map, a party, and a little hot dog!

Another print has reared its giant head out of the creative waters of my brain. At least I like to think those waters are creative. Hmmm.

It turned out rather well for a quick project but there were some flecks of old emulsion in my screen that didn't make me very happy. I printed an edition of 8 and they are for sale if you're interested.

Last week was Tyrone's 1st birthday, and he is not one to underdress for special occasions. The funny thing is that his "tux" was actually meant to dress a candle...but it fit around his furry neck pretty well.

My parents came into town and joined us for bacon wrapped hot dogs to celebrate our little hot dog.

My friends Mike and Kathryn had me over to watch the Academy Awards.

I made some mozzarella, prosciutto, and asparagus stuffed crepes and brought Oscar bingo over.

I also made some kabobs that were quite tasty, although I wasn't as fond of the grapefruit in the mix as much as I thought I would be.

Kathryn made these fantastic tux cake pops. She is a pro (and this was her first time making them!)

All in all it was a fun filled week.

Scrumptious Valentine

These bold red and white napkins are a household favorite, and how couldn't they be for only 10 cents at a yard sale.

Sparkling apple cider tastes great out of these amazing coke glasses from this eclectic store.

I, however, continue to drink this with vanilla coke regularly.

After dinner I enjoyed entertainment provided by these guys (another household favorite) in a whole new way. They have a new volume of movie riffs that include newer films such as Harry Potter, Drag me to Hell, and Avatar. You can find their newer material here.

My riffed movie of choice? The Matrix.

Needless to say it was a busy, fun filled and joyous occasion. It's a good thing some homework can be fun...like this charcoal on newsprint sketch.

The Storms and their Cellar

I have returned (at last) with new prints. I screen printed these little suckers with acrylic on poster board. This teal is one of my favorite colors.

One of the objectives with these little flyers was to make sure that they were reminiscent of facebook but also took a step away from their classic dark blue color scheme, hence the lighter color.

I am content with the turn out of these little guys but I think I would prefer them letter pressed...I'm sure I'll get around to it eventually.

Print is a wonderful thing. 

My cousin Taylor is also graduating from high school and she's nothing short of a blonde bombshell.

See what I mean.

And while we're on the subject of bombshells...

I finally sold my trusty ol' Chevy, Horace, so here's bidding him adieu. I'll miss you.
