things i think about stuff.

@martystuff

Hi, I'm Marty. I live in Brooklyn, NY (though I'm originally from the Boston-area, which is forever lodged in my heart). I'm a working artist, writer, musician, puppet-maker, and liker of life. This blog is a sketch-book-like place for various thoughts about things that I see and think about. I'm best known for making Sock Puppet Portraits and performing with Uncle Monsterface, but I do lots of other stuff, too. See some of my work at martystuff.com | unclemonsterface.com | my etsy | fancy portfolio

I made a new #blog on my web site called Astronaut Island. So far it's mostly about #videogames, but I plan to make it a home for whatever emerges of my non-fiction. Weekly thus far. And each piece gets a #weird #etching #collage ! martystuff.com/astronautisland
