What I recieved:

  • 1 Large Green Tea
  • Cream
  • Double cup

What they got right:

  • Large
  • Colour (Peppermint is green?)

Workin’ hard

Feelin': cafinated

I’m workin’ away on the new site. This will be more of a portfolio than a blog. I’ve come to lothe that word. Anyways. Hold tight while things work themselves out.

I just imported all the old stuff from the former site and I’m trying to import more older enteries. The worst part is that now the site can handle big images well and all I have is tiny web friendly ones of my older work since all the raw images are/were on my laptop which was burgled a few months ago and since I’ve sold a lot of my work.

Ah well upward and onward.

An unexpected gift

A wonderful man by the name of Doug contacted me through my site and offered me a box of old slide and camera equipment. I had the privilage to meet Doug and his wife, have a chat and have a look at some of his photography work. It was great to sit down and talk art with someone with vastly more experiance than myself but at the same time be very down to earth about it.

I’m itching to start working these pieces into some new robots.

Stay tuned!

Heightmap in pygame (python)

Procedurally generated heightmap program in python with the pygame libraries.

Generates a set of islands and landmasses randomly and smooths it out so it looks more like real land (in pixelated form)

About me

I am an artist for lack of a better word. I hate the term "artist" because it conjures up the vision of a holier-than-thou hipster type who makes up profound meanings for a blue canvas. Post modernism is rarely art. I’m not really an artsy person either. My wife studied art history and I enjoy things like that. I mostly subscribe to the "I may not know art, but I know what I like" philosophy.

I prefer terms like "Tinkerer", "Creator", "Maker" and "Builder". Constructive terms.

I like to make new things out of junk, bits, pieces and various miscellania. I recently decided this compulsion to build complex compilations of simple parts has roots in my childhood obsession with LEGO. My father made me a LEGO table from an old door and steel brackets that sat in our basement. I think I spent more time seated at that table bushing aside an ocean of coloured bricks searching for the specific one I needed than most people spent outside in their childhood.
