Topic 6: Printer

Welcome to the Ella Show... :(

Haha. This word came up on the random word generator I found on Google and I almost had a spastic attack. It was a feat of superhuman strength, self-control, and honesty to not click the generator again.

Like flies to wanton boys are we stationery people to the printer gods...they screw us over for their sport. (That's what Shakespeare would have written, if he had to print out King Lear.)

Due December 5 or thereabouts. Please?

Cereal (Ella)


Tried and failed to pay homage to one of my absolute favorite, total idols in art today, Lorraine Loots (check out her unbelievable miniature works, 365 Postcards for Ants, on her site). I love, love, love her pieces and bought her book which should be arriving in December sometime, and I can't wait. I would love to develop my watercoloring and draftsmanship skills to even remotely come close to her aesthetic. It's so charming, fantastic (in the fantasy, truly wonderful sense, as well as the colloquial), and realistic all at the same time.

"Anyway, cereal," said the super fangirl, embarrassed.

Candle (Monica)

A short explanation for this ridiculousness:

So there's this candle company called Diptique, and they have a scent called "Baies," which is French for "berries." The problem is that every time I look at it, I keep thinking it's missing a "b" to read "Babies." So this is me fixing that. Also, I think babies smell like warm milk, so I made a fake advertisement. I REGRET NOTHING.

The cake looks a bit saggy, but I don't think he minds. Pentel pen in sketchbook.
