Of Mermaids and Greeting Cards
And here's what I promise will be the very last post related to my installation. This was the final sketch of the mermaid centerpiece before I made a giant version. I'm hoping to turn it into a greeting card.

At Long Last : Window Installation at Tender Loving Empire
I know I'm about a month late on this one but I finally got around to editing the photos from my window installation at Tender Loving Empire which is STILL UP in downtown Portland and available to be viewed.
For those of you who don't live here or are just too lazy to go down there here are some pictures of the whole shebang.
The scene from the sidewalk.
Figure one: SEA CREATURE
Figure Two: Mermaid
Figure Three : Ship
Base Detail 1
Base Detail 2
Base Detail 3
Part of the purpose of the art is to help sell their locally made merchandise, so Stephanie and I picked out as many nautical themed pieces as we could find. This treasure box worked perfectly.
As did this creature.
Close up of the Sea Creature. I really wanted there to be 4 tentacles, but time only allowed for 3. The detail in his mouth nearly killed me.
Definitely the most difficult one to cut out.
What map is complete without a compass?
And of course a friendly greeting.
This was one of my favorites.
Some more of the merch we're hawking.
And that's it! I think it's going to be up for a few more weeks so make sure to head down to Tender Loving Empire at 412 Southwest 10th Avenue, just a block and a half south of Powell's!

Bushy Browed Mermaids
Here's the second to last sketch I did for the center piece in my installation at Tender Loving Empire. It's pretty much there, but just a tad too realistic.
I know I've been neglecting my blog recently, but only because the circus that is my life recently has been putting on daily shows and I haven't had the time to get away. I do have some drawings stored up, so once I get around to scanning them it'll be smooth sailing all the way. Stay with me, my friends!

Tender Loving Window Installation
Sorry about the long blogging hiatus folks, but with the opening of my last show, out of town guests, summer fun, bbq's, bike rides, day jobs, my birthday, vacation planning, and an upcoming window installation at Tender Loving Empire I've been pretty busy!
I don't want to divulge the whole thing just yet, but here's a concept sketch I did a while ago for some elements of the window installation. I'm installing this Saturday and then two days later it's vacation time. Awwwwwww Yeaaaaaaaah.
