sushi break

When the boyfriend was still in art school, I could spend hours watching him paint. These days, it is easy for me to forget work, Facebook, and online shopping when I watch him draw stuff for his clients.

He’s talented, this guy. Most of his designs these days are of the bloody-guts hanging out-zombie variety. But he whipped this one up several nights ago:

I really really REALLY hope Design by Humans print this. I would so wear this. In fact, I already have an outfit in mind that beautifully incorporates this shirt. I’m thinking black leggings (the zipped one would be awesome), silver accessories, and booties.

OR gray skinnies and a cropped blazer for a bit of a Lorelai vibe.

wearable art

It’s a normal progression for graffiti artists to print their art on shirts and sell them, right? It’s not selling out, no. It’s a need to bring what they can do to public walls to something more personal (and portable) as a shirt.

All right, that was a baseless babble as I am not a graffiti artist and I can never begin to fathom how they’d want to expose their art. In any case, my boyfriend and some of his friends have decided to go into the t-shirt business. The following are teasers of some designs they’ll be releasing.

I am sad that they don’t carry shirts my size. Boo.

one-shoed charlie’s friend

I have a new banner. Uzi made it for me. He made the one before this and, well, I’m spoiled and psychotic and begged him to make me a “cuter” banner. I loved that banner but this one is definitely a keeper.

boredcopy2.jpg picture by miwiyamMy blog “mascot” is that cute little girl with a thimble for a hat. She’s silly that way. And it’s obvious that Uzi and I love Shel Silverstein. While drawing her, Uzi kept asking me if she is as cute as One-Shoed Charlie which led him to refer to her as Charla. I am not fond of the name, so let’s just call her Thimble Girl.

Thimble Girl turned out to be way cuter than Charlie. She’s such a little imp, I could eat her! This officially disproves Uzi’s delusion that he can’t draw anything cutesy. He can draw all sorts of cute, actually. You should see his doodles all over our sketch pads. Not only does he create things that elicit a squeal from me, he also draws things that make people go “Whoah. He’s good. I’m not worthy,” or “F*ck. That’s some great sh*t.” Seriously, people have said the previous sentence about his work.

He paints.

(He wasted time teaching me watercolor painting.)

 

He takes wonderful pictures.

 

He has killer digital art skills.

 

He can do amazing things with a cheap ballpoint pen.

 

 

My mitten boy. He’s an inspiration.

 

Oh yeah, please do not copy these photographs without my permission.
