Serial Killer of the Week

I think serial killers are fascinating. The first serial killer of the week is...(drum roll, please)


Countess Elizabeth Báthory

This bitch was fucking crazy. Now the details of her rein of terror are sketchy, but she supposedly killed/tortured over 600 young women. Nothing like vanity and power to drive a member of the ruling class to bathe in the blood of the innocent to stay young and beautiful forever. Ol' Lizzie stands out to me because she's a woman. Growing up in America in the 90's all serial killers looked like Bundy and Dahmer to me. Then I found Lizzie. I'd give you more details and facts and that shit, but you know how to Google. If the depths to which the human mind can go enthralls you too, check her out.

Feeling Colors

Once upon a time...



 CONFUSION, Collage. 2008.


I made a book filled with colorful pictures depicting my interpretation of different feeling states associated with color.



CALM, Collage. 2008.

The experience of making these pieces was very interesting. I worked off my own emotion. It was all very therapeutic.



STABILITY, Acrylic. 2008.




ILLNESS, Collage and Acrylic. 2008.


P.S. Sorry these pics suck ass. Better versions to come.

Can't read my, Can't read my, No, he can't read my Lack of Face



I witnessed this when I got home from work today.
The office was a buzz with disgust. I couldn't wait. Poor poor Charla. If I had a friend who's monkey, excuse me, chimp ripped my fucking face off I would not be talking to Meredith Vera on national television unless I was trying to raise money for the "Assassinate my ex-friend who's monkey, excuse me, chimp ripped my fucking face off" fund.

As a sidenote, I must question the rediculousness of the American media machine. Are we really that desperate for a distraction that we need to look at this LACK OF FACE first thing in the morning? I guess everyone needed something to talk about at work today. The powers that be certainly wouldn't want that break room convo to focus on them.

Pot-Hand

Here's some shit I did a while ago...




Black & White Clay Vase. High-Gloss Glaze. 2006




 Cup and Candle Holder. 2006


Damn, I love getting my Demi on. Throwing is my favorite method of working with clay. Pieces have a more finished look and its a wonderful tactile experience. If only I could find a man that didn't want me in a corner!
