Paint?

I found this video about speed watercolor painting on Colossal. I’m no painter but I thought I’d give it a try.

Needs a little work. Why is drawing so evasive?

Now on Etsy!
Wednesday, 25 April 2012, 3:05 PM — Matthew


Opening an Etsy shop has been on my to do list for too long, so today I am making it real.  The shop will host a variety of my more fun, functional, and craft based projects, starting with deer head pins and freedom ties at affordable prices.  In the near future, I hope to bring my good friend Aimee Belanger along for the ride by adding some of her wonderful prints.  Here’s the link: http://www.etsy.com/shop/RAWRdesign

SB 1474
Tuesday, 20 March 2012, 11:30 PM — Matthew

SB1474 is an Arizona state bill that proposes to allow people above the age of 21 with concealed carry permits to bring their guns on campus. The AZ house approved the bill and it is now waiting for AZ senate and governor clearance.

To celebrate this new chapter in the wild west I have made a revolver silk screen, an will be happy to print it on any clothing you’d like March 21-22 free of charge. I have colors white, pink, turquoise, and brown, but will print any other color you bring me.

Whether these prints are for or against guns is up to you. I’m for visibility of the issue.

UPDATE: Thanks to all the media coverage of this issue, and a large response from the populace, SB1474 was not passed by the AZ Senate.

I had a nice interview with Lenni a couple weeks ago, and it went to print just before my Tranquility opening.  You can read the article here.
