A batch of Kickstarter rewards. Almost finished! I'm currently in the midst of embroidering these and I hope to have them all out by this week. Phew! Thanks again to those who contributed.

It's been quite busy over here with all sorts of projects. Fine art experiments, brand new subscription pieces, and tonight I posted a few embroidered originals to the shop.

Giveaway soon.

Greetings!

Well, I just returned home after a lovely 10 days in Düsseldorf, Germany. The time went by very quickly with a large installation to create, dinner parties, visits to K20 and K21, and daily walks through the city. What an incredible time I had! To celebrate I am giving away 3 items to 3 lucky winners but hurry because tonight (12.08.10 - by midnight EST) is the deadline.

Please comment over here to enter the Giveaway!

Commission | 09.08.10

Commission | 09.08.10, originally uploaded by selflesh.

Hey kids!

Over the past month or so I have taken on as many small scale commissions as I can in hopes to save up enough to help fund my upcoming shows. Above is a recent custom piece, and you can see other examples here and of course, over at my shop.

Right now I am taking advantage of the wee lull in the commission department, and I am in the midst of creating a large body of work. At some point I have to carve out a little time to create some new designs for the selflesh shop along with creating prints, etc. for other venues like Craftland, and Little Paper Planes. Wait? Do I have time to do all this? Egads! Wish me luck.

With about a week to go, I am still continuing to raise funds for these shows via my Kickstarter Project. Oh my goodness! Did you see? I exceeded my goal and I still have 9 days to go. Unbelievable! Really! I love Kickstarter and I love you!

THANK YOU - to so many of you who have contributed to the project. Those who have pledged know that you are privy to behind the scenes images and videos! So, stay tuned for an update later this evening or tomorrow. If you also want to be "privy" to my project updates, head over and pledge for rewards in return. Otherwise, wait patiently... and I will be sure to post a few progress images over at my fine art blog later this year.
;)

Thanks for reading and looking.
Hugs.

P.S. OH and I'm having another giveaway! Yay!

Kickstarting!

Kickstarter | 09.03.10, originally uploaded by selflesh.

I know... crickets over here but... right now, I need your help!

I have put together a Kickstarter Project because I am raising funds for the creation of new work and to assist with my travel expenses for my upcoming solo exhibition in Germany. This is a mighty pricey venture so any additional funds raised over the $1,500 goal will go towards my material, framing and shipping costs. Please consider supporting this project by pledging and / or spreading the word to your friends.

The best part is that becoming a backer of this project is a snap AND you get something in return. I have oodles of pledges (with rewards) to choose from. Go take a look.

Head over to my Kickstarter page and consider supporting this project in exchange for some art!

Thanks so much.

I have returned from a very productive month at the Vermont Studio Center. Pardon my lack of editing, but you can see photos of my time there, here.

Hooray! Another giveaway!

Lack of posts due to a few projects in the works...

Justin and I have been busy working on our installations for this year's CMCA Biennial. You can take a look at what we've been up to here and here. In addition, I am preparing to head to Vermont (to an artist residency) for the month of June. So, this will be the last giveaway until July. There's only a short window of opportunity to enter to win! You have until tomorrow (June 3rd by midnight) and you can enter here.

Good luck.

P.S. If you want to keep up with my progress at the residency, I will be posting process images here.
