As well as setting a really dangerous precedent of two blog posts in one week, I’m also getting into the bad habit of posting a lot of images and very little text. I’ll try to get better about that, though I secretly believe that people are, in general, too lazy to read lot of text anyway.
As promised, here are my four most recent paintings. They’re actually finished, which is more than I can usually say! We’ll see about continuing this trend.
I’m going to save up for a couple of canvases so next time I don’t have to paint on paper.

Two years ago, when I was afflicted with horrible sunburn and confined to the house, I started a tradition of decorating notebook covers with strange collages. As I was completely sunburn-free last August, I missed my opportunity. But this year I’ve revived the tradition! Not only that, but I’ve revived it with poetry. This year’s notebook brought to you courtesy of T.S. Eliot and The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock.

Over two years ago (freshman year), I met Brady Earnhart in an intro to creative writing course. The following summer, he graciously consented to be in a short film I made for a new media course with Gardner Campbell. I fell in love with Brady’s music the first time I heard it, and it made up most of the film’s soundtrack. Earlier this year, I made a music video for him. You’d think that I’d eventually get sick of the music after all those hours of editing, but every time I hear a new song of Brady’s, I fall in love all over again.

I’m not in the habit of writing “this is what’s going on in my life” kind of posts, but this week has big news: I caved and bought an accordion. I’ve been wanting to learn accordion for a while now, but could never find any instruments to try out, let alone buy. I’m discovering all kinds of neat things and challenges. Still very excited.

In case you haven’t heard, a new law (Section 92 of the Copyright Amendment Act) is about to be passed in New Zealand that will force the removal of websites and internet service if there is a suspected (not proven) copyright violation. It won’t require evidence, a trial, or even any consequences for false accusations. The primary campaign against this law can be found at http://creativefreedom.org.nz/.

Here he is, in all his overcoat-wearing glory. No hat, sadly, and no bandolier with pistols. Not yet, anyway.
