"Booze of Childhood"

This is a very simple image. I'm not sure if I'm going to add another layer to it or not. I'm still playing. I feel like I'm close but not yet there. We shall see.

Movie Ticket

"ADMIT NONE"

This was done in one night after searching the website of Bed Bath and Beyond. My mother wants a series of images for the basement that match the "Burnt Popcorn" image. She wanted images that were borderline novelty. Bed Bath and Beyond, among other home decor shops, always have some version of this ticket stub in the art section. When I came upon it on the site, the idea to put in the "N" was almost instant.

This is definitely something I would put in my home but I'm pretty sure my mom won't be too receptive to it. However it was an idea that had to be done.

Ketchup and Mustard

After my extreme happiness with the Peanut Butter and Jelly, I got the idea to create a series of kitchen photos with famous duos. When I thought about it, there are so many items that go together like salt and pepper, cheese and crackers, mac and cheese, etc.

Above is ketchup and mustard. I actually drew the squares and letters with the condiments themselves. I don't feel the same joy with it as I did with the Peanut Butter and Jelly so I'm just going to say this is my first attempt. When I get it right, I'll know.

New iPhone App

Last night I downloaded a new app for my phone called "Pic Stitch" which is a seemingly lame way to put several different photos into one frame. However, this ended up working to my advantage with these two photos.

I originally had each of these photos framed for my first art exhibition this weekend but I soon realized that unless these images were framed together, they didn't stand well on their own.

This is the perfect way (I think) to put them together. I'm very happy about the re-birth of these images.
