A few Gelli plate monotypes of Ricky B. Rat

I got around to playing with my gelli plate to try to make some monotypes at home similar to what I can do in the studio with a press. I still have a fair amount of experimenting to do to get the Goldilocks linework – just the right thinness,...

Prints, pastels, and 1990s Pyra really shoulda kept better records

Saturday again. I just got back from dropping another trunkful of stuff I don’t need anymore off at Value Village (and there will be a bunch more) along with renewing my membership at the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria, which I almost forgot was running out in a couple...

Noah’s Archipelago: Favorite of the week ending May 14, 2022

I’m posting my favorite of the previous week’s Noah’s Archipelago comics each Saturday. This week was Thorsen Family Spring Cleaning, for everyone except Valerie, which is of course too little to do anything but cause more mess… in this case, on Ruth’s U2 records… wonder why they might have...

Noah’s Archipelago: Favorite of the week ending May 7, 2022

Spring clean-ups, bees, and blooms

Well, I spent all day out in the garden yesterday and got a sunburn… I really should know better by now… really, I should… Guess I’m cancelling this week’s IPL face-zapping. And while I’m whining, I think I have a cracked filling. Guess I know what phone calls I...

Noah’s Archipelago: Favorite of the week ending April 23, 2022

I’m posting my favorite of the previous week’s Noah’s Archipelago comics each Saturday. This week we had a bit of a game of telephone, wherein Ursula told her class a slightly exaggerated version of the postering events of last week and her teacher told Ruth and Ruth and Noah...

Noah’s Archipelago: Favorite of the week ending April 16, 2022

I’m posting my favorite of the previous week’s Noah’s Archipelago comics each Saturday. This week Ursula ran her mouth about Noah’s band activities not being work, and so Noah made her help him poster all over town for his next U2 tribute band gig, even though Ursula tells him...
