Last Sat­ur­day at Nudashank was the open­ing of Jor­dan Bernier’s solo show, New Waves. I was hav­ing cam­era issues and only had my cell phone with me, but I absolutely loved the show. I’m always a fan of Jordan’s work, and was excited to see the large graphite draw­ings he produced. One ele­ment of Jordan’s ...

Dri­ving around Kansas City, MO this past week­end, I heard this song on the radio. Look­ing it up on Youtube, I was able to watch the offi­cial music video. I like the song and like the stop-motion paint­ing and body paint­ing that is utilized. ...

I am done with finals! I am done with mak­ing pre­sen­ta­tions and writ­ing papers! Dur­ing win­ter break I can focus on Brown Paper Bag and art mak­ing again! Hooray! Now that I can really watch things on the inter­net again, here’s what I will be catch­ing up on: // Lit­tle Paper Planes TV The Lit­tle Paper ...

If you’re like me, you might enjoy see­ing the process of work and how it is made. Tyson Anthony Roberts recently sent me a cou­ple of videos that doc­u­ment his painting: Below, an oldie but a goodie. I’ve never done dig­i­tal paint­ing, but Jeremy Enecio is a pro. I am con­tin­u­ally mesmerized: Watch­ing paint­ing is ...

I’ve writ­ten about Alli­son Schul­nik before and had no idea she made videos! Thanks to Alex for post­ing this amaz­ing and face melt­ing (lit­er­ally) stop-motion ani­ma­tion. It is hyp­notic and a bit haunt­ing. I love it. ...

Happy Mon­day, all! Check out the dizzy­ing Heck­sagons by Kristin Farr, below: The rapid-fire pre­sen­ta­tion of these hexa­gons are entranc­ing. I’ve hit replay mul­ti­ple times (and pause as well) to study the dif­fer­ent pat­terns and color combination. heck­sagons from kristin farr on Vimeo. ...

Last Sun­day I took a short trip to the National Gallery to Wash­ing­ton, DC and viewed their lat­est exhi­bi­tion, Warhol: Head­lines. The show chron­i­cles Warhol’s use of the news in his work, largely based on tabloids. In the lat­ter part of his career, he moved from using news to help mak­ing news, pro­duc­ing a cou­ple ...

Mon­day is a hol­i­day here in the US, and I don’t know about you, but this week­end will include a cook­out! Any­ways, before I leave you for the long week­end, here is a new music video by Future Islands, one of my favorite Baltimore-based bands. Their new album, On the Water comes out the 10th ...

So I know that Suf­jan Stevens came out with Age of Adz last year. But, a lis­ten to the album dur­ing a long bus ride reminded me of how much I love this song. Ani­mated by Suf­jan him­self with orig­i­nal art­work by Royal Robert­son. I love the ele­ment of play in this video, and the ref­er­ences ...

I don’t know about you, but I love to lis­ten to artists explain their cre­ative process, talk about inspi­ra­tion, and their strug­gles to get to where they are today. Ira Glass gives a great talk on this, and it’s very moti­vat­ing for some­one who iden­ti­fies as a cre­ative type. The Blank Sheet Project is described as, ...
