Fused Plastic Bags (with monkey theme)

Plastic, plastic, t’s everywhere! Especially those plastic bags you get at the grocery store or just about anywhere hiding in a drawer. Although the number of bags would dwindle with the use of a handy tote, which is quite popular here in Europe when buying groceries. Personally if I remember to bring one it’s fine, [...]

Pasta de migajón (bread dough paste)

Not for eating It’s a paste made from the whites of commercial loaf bread, white craft glue (school glue), lime juice and glycerin (or cream with glycerin). Mom used to make flowers made from migajón in the 80s. After she added stems and leaves to the flowers (like these), she combined them [...]

Revealing the Mars Sock Monkey Summer 2008 Collection!

The Mars Sock Monkey summer collection is finally here! Say hello to Robert, Mona, William, Eileen and Ulysses! Inspired by some world renowned graffiti art, the newest monkeys are representative of the vibe and culture that buzzes in the streets of East London. Here the neighborhoods are splashed with innovative street art and people with styles [...]

Featuring Diamonds and Sprinkles by Jujulee

Ah! My first post featuring someone else’s work other than my own. Diamonds and Sprinkles by Jujulee creates unique and stylish acrylic jewelery. Julie, the woman behind Jujulee.etsy.com and her husband Scott, who also sells at Laser.etsy.com, work out of Salt Lake City where they produce beautiful laser art since 2002! The husband and wife [...]

Mars Sock Monkey custom orders

A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of working with my very first sock monkey custom order client. She was a delight and even ordered a second monkey! She also gave each of them their names, Punk and Star. They now live in the southern land of Australia! See Punk and Star [...]

Untitled WIP

One day I know this illustration will be finished! My intend is to put it up for sale as a print on deviantART once it’s complete. It’s about the same size as Seijin Shiki, which I’m considering getting printed down the street. So much still to do on this one though, but my goal is to [...]

Simple origami flowers

I picked up some pastel card stock at the stationer down the street for lack of better origami supplies on a Sunday night. Most all retail shuts down on Sundays, especially if it’s after 5 or 6pm. Since then, I picked up some proper origami paper at Cass Art in Islington. A friend took me there [...]

How to Make a Pom-Pom

These are so fun to make! The size of the pom-pom will depend on the size of the donut-shaped pieces. The inner hole should be half the size of the original circle. I had some problems cutting the yarn between the paper pieces on Step 4, so I started cutting perpendicular to the donuts (horizontally along [...]

Life drawing in London ~ week 5

This week I went back to the Cafe El Paso for another life drawing session. Having the urge to try something new this time, I thought about drawing white on black, but then I didn’t have time to pick up materials so I took the cheapy color pencils I bought at Argos last Christmas, thinking [...]

Life drawing in London ~ week 4

I’m back from life drawing hiatus and this time I went to the session held at the Cafe El Paso on Old Street. I liked that the directions to get there said it was “opposite a back massage place with a big spine fixed on the wall.” Hannah was our lovely model; I did some [...]
