I hope everyone's had a wonderful holiday season smile

I wish you all peace and joy every day of your lives, and not just this time of the year.

P.S. I'm a big dork because my wonderful dad got me an exact replica of the Shards of Narsil from LOTR and I cried when I saw it. I'm that excited about it. blush

Well I've finally added more photos of my newest clay sculptures to the "pics" section! Please check them out, because I'm proudest of these, especially the larger-than-lifesize hand. Also, please note that the clay men and women were 20-minute long miniature sculptures, not 12-hour long sculptures like the hand and heads. So, naturally, they're not as detailed or smoothed.

I hope everyone had a great...

Boy I need to get to snapping some more pictures! I'm feeling the photography itch again! I been having some great ideas about combining my sculptures with my photography, so I can't wait until everything's fired and I can bring them home and play!

Speaking of sculpture, today in my class, we had a (semi) nude male model to sculpt. It's a new turn for...

I really want to see your photography. I have been ansy to go out and take photo's recently. Something I haven't had the yearning for since I was in school. I had a friend that used to jump in the car with me. We'd call ourselves action photography. We were even going to make magnetic signs for the car. The thought just made us laugh. Alas she moved and I have the yearning. So I might be heading out again. Just reading that you were escited about photography made me excited. biggrin

if you're going to make your own tofurky and do not object to wheat gluten, i've got an excellent recipe... just let me find it..

Dry Mix:
2 cups vital wheat gluten flour
1/2 cup soy flour
1/2 cup nutritional yeast
some Onion powder and a bit of Garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon white pepper

Wet Mix:
12oz. firm (not silken) tofu
1 1/2 cups water
3 tablespoon soy sauce or Bragg's
1 tablespoon olive oil

Put wet mix in a blender.
add Dry to Wet. Knead for a bit. Let it sit for an hour or so. Knead again for a few minutes.
Put the dough into a bread pan, heat the oven to 200 or a bit above 200 and bake for 3 hours. Flip over the loaf once, turn oven to 325 and bake for another half hour.

There's a baste, too, but that's basically just oil and vegetable broth.
It's good. bok
Hooray vegan thanksgiving. I hope you've got a big group of peoples to cook for.

mmmm halloween...

I had the best halloween i've had since i stopped trick-or-treating!

i dressed up as zombie miss muffett, josh was just a zombie (who'd just polished off a fresh brain), my friend jonny was an awesome-looking death angel type thing (he made the costume himself, check out the pics), and our friend tim was some kind of 80's skeleton...thing. we all went to...

OK has anyone had a chance to read the new Chuck book, Diary? Because I have it on hold at the local library, but i'm 10 out of 10! It's taking forever! I am dying to get my hands on it. I'm just curious if anyone's read it and what they thought.

re: "diary" - massively disappointing...i spent $30 for an advance copy on ebay, like, three months ago, and i couldn't make it through...seems like chuck phoned it in...i had to read "survivor" again, just to feel better...

but you may love it and say i'm full of shit...

ps - your pix rule...

Re: Diary...

i just got into palahniuk and i burned through "Lullaby" and "Survivor", however....

i'm reading "Diary" right now and it is a much slower read for some reason. Maybe it's because it's the third one in a row that i'm reading?

it's still good though, just a little different,... which is good.

ARRR!!!
Happy Halloween

i LOVE sculpture. i love to look at it and i most love to create it. i just got finished with one clay head and am halfway done with another and i LOVE IT! (as if that hasn't...

nah, i like photography much more than sculpture. i took a sculpture class and enjoyed it but it can't compare to taking pictures of people and objects. it has more meaning to me.

it's getting colder out and i can't wait for fall.

i looove my classes this semester! especially my figure sculpture class! i'll post pics of the head i've sculpted once it's fired.

i love my cat miao!!

the best movie i've seen lately is 'cabin fever' because of its purposeful cheesiness.

I just got a little kitten, she's just so damn cute. I should post some to my website.

Red's good. Hard for me to wear. Unless I wear the dress with the low neck line and the long slit in the side. That takes some of the focus off the red thing.

..those lips, sweet fuck. I'd never stop kissing them.

I love love love sculpture-do post a pic once it's fired.
