Letterpress French Fold Pamphlet and a question!

Hello guys! Here's what I've been working on this week: a French fold pamphlet telling a little story through illustrations. This is a reductive linoleum block-carved print that I made with a Vandercook press (which I looove!) Here's the cover:

Ta da! If you're interested in the videos I've been making, I also started a fancy schmancy cooking show called Recipes to Impressipes. My first dish is homemade ice water.

BUT! I have a question for anyone who might be reading this. I've been thinking about moving this blog to tumblr recently, as it seems more image-based (which is the way I like to blog) and posts seem easier to share and spread. I also think I'd get a little more image area out of it so I wouldn't have to squash my bigger images so much to fit into this template.

The downside of this, of course, is that I'd be starting from scratch (although I'd probably copy over all my old posts) and people who read this blog would have to go/subscribe somewhere new. So my question to you is: what's your opinion? I want to do whatever is easiest for the people who read this, so please let me know!

New Litho Print, a Collaborative Book, and Videos! Hurrah!

Hello, everyone! Hope Halloween was lovely; it certainly was for me, as I got to go to a corn maze for the first time and enjoy a party from my always wonderful friend Chase. My roommate and I went as Hank and Dean Venture from the Venture Brothers because we are supernerds. But enough about that! Here's what I've been up to! This first print is a 4-color, 22x15 inch litho print, but I still want to add a couple more layers:

I also did this collaborative exquisite corpse book, in which I (and fourteen other people) made two body parts and bound them into a book, so you can flip the body parts around to get new combinations. Here are two combos with my two body parts in them:

And here's a closeup on the ones I did:

I've also made a couple videos recently: a parody of Doctor Who and a tour of Savannah with my little sister.

Less Art...More Ridiculous: Justin Bieber and Doctor Who

Hello everyone! Well, I don't have a real art update right now, but I figured I'd post these for fun. This first thing is a little animation I did about a week and a half ago about Justin Bieber; doing this kind of cheap slide-showy animation was really fun, and I'm going to try to make another one soon. Sorry Bieber fans:



I also made this Doctor Who shirt; I saw a girl a few weeks back wearing a shirt that said "The Dark Night" and had a pretty badly drawn Joker on it. I thought the shirt was hilarious and that she had made it herself, but in the end it was just a shirt for some sorority function. The idea stuck with me, and I decided to make a really painfully bad fan shirt for one of my favorite shows, Doctor Who!

It's a little embarrassing to wear due to the sheer badness of it all, but I do it anyway. So far, nobody has said anything about it, not even my creative spelling of "Doctor."

I have a show this Friday for some sculptures I'm going to cast in plaster, so look out for that this week; take care!
