monoprinting afternoon
Today I did some simple monoprints. On blue paper, I used only the inking brayer to find the textures I craved. Then I used a thoughtlessly carved linoleum block as the impetus for an exciting pattern.
  
 
tube prints
These were produced by rolling a large tube along a styrene sheet strewn with blobs of paint, then rolling the paint covered tube onto paper. The first two have further embellishments, the rest are unadulterated.

Holiday Party
at Matt & Michelle’s
Mustard-In-Law played our first out of town gig for a holiday get-together at Matthew Crowe’s house outside Indianola, Iowa. Matt ordered up a hot slice with extra mustard, and specially requested that we do a two-hour set including the chef’s entire range of select dipping sauces. We were able to stretch our legs’ ears, and we thought it was the best thing we’ve done in front of other people. If you didn’t catch the whole thing in person, here’s the line-in audio. Warning: may cause enchanted brain syndrome, leaky dream sequence, or discrete bowel malfunction.
