I have been preoccupied all week with preparations for the Artwalk. It's like this every time the Artwalk comes around - all the artists start freaking out and working like crazy about a month before the event, and the last two weeks are serious crunch time. It's really crunch time for me - since I don't do any of my own film development or printing, I have to take everything to my favorite local pro lab and/or have prints made by an online lab. Having film processed or enlargements made at a lab takes time, so I had to drop off all of the stuff for my prints at the lab last night. I'm pretty much done with that stuff for now; I'm going to take some more body modification and suspension photos at my friend's house this weekend, but I won't have time to have enlargements made, just processing and proof prints. All that's left to do is mounting and framing the final prints when I get them back, so now that I'm done with that stuff I'm just going to focus on making a few small paintings to sell. I'm also working on a painting/collage project that'll be a present for my girlfriend, who is currently making paintings at a frenetic pace and therefore deserves lots of presents.
Some of you may know that my former roommate, who lives across the hall from me, is a tattoo artist. She's done all of my tattoos and a lot of my friends' tattoos, and she's very good at what she does. She's planning a trip to Asia in the summer and is trying to raise money for the trip, so she is doing special pricing until the end of May. If you want to get a tattoo from a kickass artist at a really good price, check out her flyer and give her a call. I'm not sure if she'll be around during the Artwalk, but you can try and schedule a consultation during that weekend to check out her portfolio and then come visit me while I'm trapped in my living room trying to explain suspensions to a 60 year old Pasadena housewife.
After all this Artwalk hullabaloo is over with, I'll be back to my normal, fucking hilarious self. However, I fully expect that I'll post something towards the end of next week along the lines of "OMFG I AM SO STRESSED THIS IS TEH SUX0R", so you may want to stick around if you are a fan of seeing a person melt down in a text-based medium. I know you'll be waiting with bated breath.
