I'm not saying this is worthy of Design*Sponge, but it makes me happy.

I Made an Afghan!

It took me 3 1/2 months to make this.

Old Las Vegas Sign

From the Neon Graveyard in Las Vegas. Acrylic on paper, about 5" x 7".

Art for bookclub.

Reminded me of the sheep man in A Wild Sheep Chase by Haruki Murakami, found here.

Great Video About Looking at Art

From MoMA's website, found by my sister in Creativity Magazine.

Inspiration on the Internet

A few things I've found inspiring lately:

1. This post about Paris from the blog sfgirlbybay. The colors are so lovely.




2. Making paintings about what you eat, like Riki Takaoka, as seen in the blog The Best Part.




3. Work by others in Moleskine notebooks. I usually sketch in a Moleskine sketchbook. This site would work better if there was a next button to click through all of the images, but it's still fun.
