THIS SATURDAY!



Cowtown Lowbrow (the art collective i am in) presents: LOCAL STARYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I haven't really had a spring break because I've been busting my ass trying to make amazing artwork for this "Columbus" themed show. I am so proud of what I have created and really don't care if none of my pieces sell. I just can't believe I am showing with such an amazing group of people at CHOP CHOP Gallery!

Yesterday I started to get nervous and couldn't believe what an amazing opportunity this is to get my artwork out there. Chop Chop is an amazing gallery and everyone should come out to this event! CARABAR AFTER THE SHOW FOR DRINKS DRUNKS AND SKUNKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SPACE

if i didnt like art so much, i would probably be an astronomy major.......

check out this astronomy picture of the day:



A Prominent Solar Prominence from SOHO

Explanation: What's happened to our Sun? It was sporting a spectacular -- but not very unusual -- solar prominence. A solar prominence is a cloud of solar gas held above the Sun's surface by the Sun's magnetic field. In 2004, NASA's Sun-orbiting SOHO spacecraft imaged an impressively large prominence hovering over the surface, pictured above. The Earth would easily fit under the hovering curtain of hot gas. A quiescent prominence typically lasts about a month, and may erupt in a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) expelling hot gas into the Solar System. Although somehow related to the Sun's changing magnetic field, the energy mechanism that creates and sustains a Solar prominence is still a topic of research.

age of innocense

well, it official. im legal. i can drink all i want legally. woot. thanks to all the lovers who came and played last night. i love you all.

so this is my take on why its important to party very hard on your 21st. its the end of an era of illegal drinking and trying to get as drunk as possible because you dont know when ur next drink will come. it IS the begining of new era where you take your time, relax, and enjoy the beverage NOT for its action it posses on you but for its taste and glory.

all in all, im never drinking 13 drinks in one night ever again. and tequila is no longer in my vocabulary.

this weekend Times New Viking played the closing show for the Warhol Exhibition at the Wexner Center. They covered Velvet Underground songs and made me want to cry. They were great. I like all the noise they make.

so lovely



I remember seeing this installation by Tara Donovan, in Juxtapoz magazine in high school and always think about it now and then. Its everything I love about art. Its delicate yet strong, beautiful yet bad for the environment, its ethereal yet recognizable. I love artwork that is made from everyday objects or comments on everyday tools that we use and throw away like the world is out garbage can. This material that takes "decades" to actually decompose and is so awful for our planet is now a healthful and useful material that flourishes the space instead of deteriorates.
