It’s been a whirlwind lately. May started cranking into high activity mode, and now June is just as busy, and I LOVE IT. Specifically, folks who come to my booth at shows, you are so overwhelmingly nice, interesting, creative and cool, it kinda takes my breath away. I am working on about 10 new pieces […]

This is my big accomplishment of the day. May I present Ignignokt, from Aqua Teen Hunger Force. Not great fidelity, because I ran out of blue and green light pegs. Made on a late model Lite-Brite. Oh! I also am now an official volunteer at Flemington DIY! They are lovely people, I am really looking […]

The event we volunteered at last weekend was amazing. Just amazing. I am not gonna lie, my favorite part of it was Krystle Lemonias artist site‘ slideshow on her work. Let’s get this out of the way: DIY, not d-i-e is a project to deal with real-world sustainability, through art (as CoffeeAndCreatures, and as a […]

We have a rather robust group of potatoes here – they kind of self-organized, coming from prior authorized plantings, from peelings in the compost, and who knows what else. I decided to see what would happen if I planted some in the greenhouse, in large planters. For much of January, nothing really happened. But in […]

Saw this on IG, but who knows – maybe this is helpful to someone. Mutual aid is what makes humans awesome. https://www.instagram.com/p/DGQefWKRpoI/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link “Working people are the backbone of our communities, yet too often, relief isn’t made for us. So we’re doing what we can to pitch in. This Friday, we’re giving away 100 dozen eggs […]

…well, that is also me. I wish I was 2 people, so I could distribute all the tasks still needing to be done by 11am tomorrow for the Darkside Market at the Broken Goblet in Bensalem, PA. I have been experimenting with Culture Hustle paints lately, mostly the fluorescents, but I had some Rainbow Liquid […]

ignore me, just trying shit out

For the pending mushy holiday, I propose a couple of options: if you are in the Trenton NJ, Newtown-Bensalem-ish PA vicinity, come and see me at The Broken Goblet on Feb 15th! 4pm – 11pm on the 15th is the Darkside NJ Night Market, aptly titled “Til Death Do We Part”. You don’t have to […]

The best people I know are nerds. They’re folks like my friends in PA, like my friends nearby who have a CNC shop in their former bedroom, my friends in Somerville who have an armory in their shed & make actual armor, like my brother and my sister-in-law, like my friend Joe in Dallas, like […]

Pixelfed is the public’s alternative to Instagram, that doesn’t algorithmically shove stuff at you, and serve you more ads than content. They are going to be pursuing self-funding via Kickstarter. I will donate, and if you want to truly own our social networking in the future, we can all take a tiny stake in our […]

This week consists of painting, brainstorming with the Otter, gathering designs….and more painting. For Coffee and Creatures, the first oddities show is coming up, in mid-February. Other projects include a collaboration with an awesome TTRPG writer on a terrain/vehicle piece, a potential recycled flag design, learning a ton of CNC stuff, and building art robots. […]

I know I’m not the only one in 2025 who feels like it needs the DIY spirit of the early internet. A post-social-media age requires something new. I’ve been thinking for awhile about RSS feeds, the fediverse, and reciprocal linking. Not as nostalgia, but as a simpler way to communicate. So, I am now on […]
