I haven't blogged in a while, despite my valiant New Year's resolution to do so... it seems that so much is happening all at once, there is hardly the time.
Since the last post, I completed a new piece for the "Stories From the Sea" series and have preliminary sketches done for two more. I've also been toying with the idea of tattooing, a little obsession of mine... but more on that another time.
I have also been doing a little photo-a-day project (also known as the infamous 365 Days on Flickr)... when I started the project, I had no idea how huge a commitment it was going to be, especially on those days when the mirror seems to be my worst enemy, my hair untamable, the bags under my eyes epic... but good bad or ugly, the pics are up at flickr.com/christenshaw
Wedding plans are cranking along, despite my tiny budget... I can't believe it is actually happening, this whole "getting married" thing... true to my chronic lack of girlishness, I now realize that I know absolutely nothing about wedding ceremonies, traditions and rituals, but I'm doing my best, and like all things I do, it is going to be a little bit dark, definitely unusual, and hopefully fun for all involved.
Paintings are still up at the Sunset in Ballard, those interested in purchasing a piece (or ordering a print) can email me at info [at] christenshaw.com
Will post the new painting once it is dry... for now, back to work...
