Nursery Box
Monday, March 1st, 2010Ive had these wooden boxes kicking around from last fall, with the idea of painting them so they could be used at Boogers sisters Nursery, as a means for customers to carry their plants around the nursery and to the their cars when cashed out. So i finally started playing around with one, after hemming and hawing for months about what materials to use, the price of rice in southern Peru, and other such frivolous issues. One4All ink is now my go to solution for all things, its my new artist duct tape. I didnt bother sealing the would this time around, as i wanted to also get a feel for how much ink would get sucked in to the grain versus what would remain on the surface; results were encouraging. As you might expect with cheapie wood the various pieces used to construct the box had their own quirks. On the nicer tighter pieces the ink was pretty much one shot pop. IN other areas the wood was so porous it took a few coats or a white under coat to get the color intensity i was after. If i had sealed the wood first it would have been a non-issue, but was good to fond out you could in theory get some transparency out of layering the ink on a porous surface.

i might have to keep this one. I think the official boxes should jsut have one painted side or be themed thus easier to name, keep track of and differentiate between.
the life of a page
Saturday, February 27th, 2010
Often i get startled by a blank page. In order to disarm it I vandalize it, making me care less about it. Easier to make a messed up page look better then it is to improve on a nice serene solid color. So throw ups and tags are in order.
Did some clean up/ surface prep with some mists of yellow, orange and red beltons. and started to sketch out some letters.

.o7 Staedtler and White Molotow One4All marker.

Went in with some brush and One4All ink. Below on the top left you can see i even broke out the old tooth brush for some good ole fashion stippling, i was being a bit cheap with the ink so its some one restrained. However its brought me to the conclusion in need an airbrush to add to the bredth of makrs one can make with Molotow Ink.

I finally pushed a few areas back by doing some top misting with the belton cans. You can see it in the top hat of Ras Top-o-page, and the same for the edges of the checkers. def couls have done more of that kind of stuff with a airbrush.
more images of this can also be seen at the molotow blog: http://www.molotow.com/magazine/blog/blog/2010/02/27/719/
Collection and coutning
Wednesday, February 24th, 2010I ordered some more One4All a few days ago, and it arrived. I decided the best thing to do was to round out the primaries and take it from there. TO celebrate i started to paint another side to a wooded create i was given by Boogies sister.
This is jsut the first sketch and some basic undr coating, its a bit further along now but i havent had a chance to get the images dealt with yet so more to come.
Stay tuned! I havent had achance to write that yet and as its prolly fairly premature why not jump the gun, so if you’re one of the 25 or so folks a day who get here only to hastily click away, i say it agian, stay tuned more to come!

****EDIT:
Ive been pretty fascinated with this whole assassination story. Its lead me to decide 75% if those around me are assassins in waiting. Sleep-sassins if you will, just waiting to get to some killing. I watch a 20 minute compilation of all the times the assassins were apparently caught on CCTV. Its really too bad the ultimate answers to most awesomely potnetialed mysteries are mundane and lame; because there is some real potential for gold in this whole story. Minus the fact that some one had to die, of course.
35% sure this guy could be one of the suspected assassins responsible for the Hamas official Killing. Dont quote but if he turns up having killed a few folks around here in the near future i will say i told you so, until then ill keep my slander between you me and God, shhh quite as kept.
