I need everyone to understand that embroidering on tulle and other sheer fabrics is incredibly difficult. This artist has learned to keep the tension just right not only in her thread but also in her hoop. This is really impressive

This I did using a reference photo.

These are some of the works I made for my Painting II final.

12/15/16, all acrylic paint, 16″x20″

I painted them all from life, no reference photos, which is why they have a different look than some of my other portrait work. These are on stretched canvas, and before I painted I textured the canvas with gesso so the surface was very rough. And after I painted I used sandpaper on the paintings so a lot of the texture came through.

WHOAH HEY I was assistant props for this play Hotel Cassiopeia and let me tell you there are a lot of cool props.

These are just a few of the things I've painted/made for the play: a Lauren Bacall 2D head, and an owl, and a butterfly glove-puppet.

It's a really gorgeous performance about the artist Joseph Cornell, this weekend and next!

I love this book. I’ve loved it since @brennayovanoff started writing it and I loved it as I was paging through it now. I’d love it even if I didn’t know Brenna. 

But I do and so I can ask for an advanced review copy to give away on the blog. I’ve sketched in it and now LET’S HAVE A CONTEST. All you have to do to enter is reblog this post before 9 PM EST on 2/1, and Brenna will pick one of the reblogs (it’s also running on Twitter) to win. It’s open internationally, and the only thing that’ll disqualify you is if you enter more than once on Twitter/ once on Tumblr (that’s twice total if you have both social media accounts which I realize not everyone does and makes this inherently not fair but that’s life I’m afraid).

I’m so excited for you guys to love this novel, too.
