Well the holiday season is upon us once again, and I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who follows my blog in my own special way. So I present to you my take on my favorite holiday movie, “A Christmas Story” starring that irascible Ralphie as well as adding my all time favorite intrawebz entertainer Wil Wheaton. Just click on the comic and peruse the panels. I hope you all enjoy it.
Have fun :)!
This is made all the more wonderful for me because I auditioned for the role of Ralphie in A Christmas Story, and even made it to the finals.

This is one of my favorite silly designs, and I only get to show it off one month a year and I am going to take full advantage of it.
Also available in blue.
This week during my “MAKE ART WITH KIDS” volunteer time, we were making mixed-media winter scenes. There were qtips. There was glitter. There were pompoms. There was lots, and lots, and lots of paint. It was extremely messy and extremely fun.
The best quote of the night came from a little girl (about four years old) who had ended up covered in paint: “Wow! I have art all over my hands!”
She totally did, too.
Anyway, this is one of the projects I made while talking, laughing, and playing with the kids.
It’s kind of funny—I do a lot of projects for myself, using all kinds of “sophisticated” equipment and supplies. But this painting—fingerpainted tempera, crayon, and glitter on blue construction paper—is my favorite thing I’ve done in ages.
One of my favorite political slogans. My favorite political slogan (I mean, it’s not like I have more than one.)
It’s Banned Books Week! Go read something.

Cheated a bit with this one and arranged some leaves in a heart on the ground. But they were so yellow, and the grass such a contrast. It seemed impossible not to.

One of my favorite things to do is walk around with a camera on a sunny day. It’s not even the photography bit that really gets me—but to hold a camera is a mental prompt to look at the the world in a different way. To examine the tiniest of details, frame the most mundane things, step back and view the whole world at once as a swirl of light and color.
Thrilling and joyful, to seek and find such beauty in such common (and, perhaps, therefore beautiful) places.

First in a series of reinterpreted photographs.
I went picture-crazy this weekend, walking around the park near my apartment and photographing everything. Bugs. Snail shells. Flowers. Spiderwebs. Bits of fluff.
—a golden patch of yellow flowers, glowing against the deep-sea sky.

It’s hard to believe on this warm summer’s day, but the long night and the flying snow are nearly here.
(A Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones sucked me in, hard.)
