Whenever my parents venture down to the big smoke for a visit I get into the silliest of moods. I find myself reverting to the seventeen year old that left home some years ago, as soon as their bright yellow volvo pulls into sight. Much to the dismay of everyone else who has to endure it. This weekend the silly mood lingered once Ma and Pa had taken to the road, and I made this IQ test- an introduction to the Stick and Stone strip I am working on finishing before the month is through. Put your stupidity to the test and try it!
my eyes hurt. my fingers are clipped and staple worn. its that time of year again: target 168. the rules: make one zine in 168 hours. print it out 35 times. hand it in at the sticky zine fair today: 3pm, degraves st underpass. this year i made a zine called "defend your tweedom". its basically about last week, when i got angry at my friend tom because he was trying to be tough and rock and roll.
this is what i did with my new years day, inspired by the amazing elephant brooch sported as a neck decoration by a girl in the final credits scene of Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
The 1st Melbourne Ukulele Festival (MUF) kicks off late Feb 2010, and to take it out in style I have offered to help organise a ukulele art show. All you need to do is submit an idea for a customised uke by January 15 to ukeart@gmail.com and we'll give you a uke to get decorating! Ukes can then be sold throughout the festy with all procedes going straight into your pocket! There are a limited number of ukes so first in gets best dressed!
this is the story of a remorseful lumberjack. he's sorry. the cloud is upset. together they cry and a leaf grows. this is not what happens in real life, but its a nice way to pass the time. xo
