Fictionist - Blue Eyed Universe

Hey everyone!

I'm please to share with you the results of the last month and a half of my secretive work. It's a space age music video for Fictionist's song "Blue Eyed Universe"! The band just released a new album (Today even) called "Lasting Echo". You can find out more about them through their site: www.fictionist.com

And without further ado... on with the show!

Another snow day! WOOOHOO

Snow day! Really odd too... two days ago I was in a t-shirt flying a kite.
Austin weather for ya.

Planets!

I'm up to something.

new artwork

Here are two new pieces I recently completed. I've been working on a bit of a series. It seems to be shaping up.

Found a face

I saw this little guy on my porch this morning. He was originally frowning but I changed it... guess I'm a bit of an optimist these days.

later that day...

more sculpture fun

Here's a new sculpture made today using Sculpey oven bake clay.

Playing with art supplies

Recently I've been experimenting with some new art supplies, thanks to art store gift cards I received this year. I found this really neat new line of sculpture materials from Crayola called Model Magic. It's weird stuff to work with. It is an air drying substance that is easy to mold and has the weight and feel of working with a large marshmallow, very strange indeed. I only tried it out once, but I am interested in seeing what can be done with this stuff. Right now, I kind of feel it is more for simple work, since it is difficult to do details in... but perhaps it just takes a bit of time to get used to the substance.

Here's a pic of a monster I made using it, below that is just a pic of my shelf since its been looking pretty colorful lately.
Happy New Years everyone!
