Xx day in Mt Eliza
Filters (I mean, camera apps) seem to be all the rage and are making news!
...as they should be. Sadly, I have used my Nikon ONCE so far while on holiday. Now my iPhone 4S is ruling my photography life, I'm editing with Camera+ and sharing with Batch (pretty much due to laziness &or convenience).
So today I went hybrid. Played with Hipster and added some dazzle with Photoshop (the IRL-not-iPhone-version).

Auslandia
My job was to decorate for the holiday lunch.
Chopped some arms off the tree. Stuck birds on them.
BAM — instant table art.

I made three cat related gifts for xmas. THREE.
1. 11x17" print of demolove
...if you're not part of the solution, Marge,
you're part of the problem!
2. set of cat buttons
made out of a knit shirt. though, i learned that stretching knits over buttons results in neurotic/unhappy cat faces. i'll stick with wovens for the next batch.
3. cat Shrinky drink charm
i drew this for a project a few years ago. recently found it in a sketch book, scanned it, edited out the coffee spills, and printed onto inkjet Shrinky Dink film. again, the kitty face looks unhappy. but that's the fault of my stippling.

holiday tradition!!!!!
give a listen!!! a short hi-larious piece from my favorite on my not-so-favorite holiday:
&
The full story is published in Holidays on Ice, a small book of seven or so of his stories. I always end up giving it as a cheap gift to people I know who like funny. So if you're also hi-larious and I like you, go check your mailbox now.
I'll wait.

Summer in winter
It's hard to get in the "xmas spirit" when you're so used to the jolly, snowy, red & green image of the holiday (as fabricated by Coca-Cola).
Well, in Australia Father Christmas is wearing a bikini poolside.

Geography lesson:
Australia looks like a prancing hamster...
...when you look at it upside down
...and squint your eyes
...and use your child-like imagination.
anyway, I'm off, cya next year!

Xxmas Xxcards.
It's not that I love the holidays (meh), I just use them as an excuse to illustrate an excruciating amount of cards. My Microns are hurting, but the result is totally worth it, & I look forward to my next card craft time. So, expect my next hand drawn correspondence as soon as next Flag Day (any excuse will do).
