ganime3010.jpgI’ve spent some time updating the Portfolio section of the website.  Remind me never to go that long without doing that again.  Thanks to everyone who stopped by my setup at the GAnime Convention this weekend.  Feel free to email me if you have any ideas.

img_1228s.jpgI’d like to send a thank you to Mrs Kirtz Learning Strategies class at All-Saints Highschool for inviting me to come in and chat about my work today. I didn’t see too many drooping eyelids, so hopefully it was as enjoyable for the class as it was for me.

The workshop needed some reorganizing and updating.  I have to learn to put parts back when I decide not to use them.  I realized this when i saw the top of my desk for the first time in months.  There was also the matter of a ventilation system that hadn’t been maintained in three years.  I took it apart and redesigned it… it’s quite a monster now.

I’m going to be guest speaker at All-Saints High School, in Ottawa, in January.  I’m looking forward to it.  The next show at the moment seems to be coming up in April at La Petite Mort Gallery.  On April 23rd i’ll be releasing a series of wall mounted sculptures especially for my “One Night Stand” at the Gallery.  For further details click HERE.
