I KAT stop thinking about you!

Jenny Gordy has always made some pretty awesome clothes, as I've mentioned here before. But this dress, I just can't stop thinking about. Especially in these hot days of summer... grrrr, if only my wallet were as big as my shopping habit. She's having a shop update this Thursday, you guys with money, you better get on that.

Send in the Clowns

I'll be honest with you, clowns kinda freak me out. Something about their freakish in between of a smile and a sad face, its just so. fake? I think that rings true for many people? Allison Schulnik's clowns can make me come around to them. The colors and the textures on her canvas draw me in and even feel for them.





Her beautiful animations are really touching as well, including the music video she did for Grizzly Bear.





If you're in New York, she currently has a show up at Canada and at Lehmann Maupin.

Women's Health-the International way

An illo about an international women’s health conference. My first sketches were pretty cliché, I think. Finally I came up with this one in my last sketch. I’m pretty pleased with how it came out, its fully embroidered so that was fun to use thread as line. Thanks to Catherine Gontarek of the Penn Gazette.
