Artist Of The Day: Belinda Del Pesco
Belinda Del Pesco is an awesome artist who specializes in watercolor, drawing, and printmaking. I'm particularly drawn to her work because of her use of color and her collograph prints. I definately think that her website is worth a look.

In defense of 'funny internet videos'
Evidently the other day (see this post) Ashley seemed to decry the fact that all I have posted, other than my introductory post, has been an extremely hilarious Internet video. She felt that the reason I had done this was because this blog didn't really have 'direction'. But this is not so. This blog does have a direction, much like any other blog, it is a living breathing organism that will be defined as time goes on. I think one of the biggest attractors to blogs, as a medium, is that they offer both the reader and the poster to dictate the content as time goes on. If, for example, we wish to show off funny Internet videos, we can. And that's ok, because really this blog is ultimately about Ashley and I having a journal of sorts of our relationship. And really I can't think of a better example of our relationship than random art stuff, with just a little bit of funny videos thrown in for good measure.
Speaking of which:
Until next time, stay classy Internet!

Coming Soon...
I realize that our blog ranges on a variety of topics but coming soon (hopefully by tomorrow) I'll be posting a blog on how to create your own collage frame. You've probably seen collage frames before while window shopping.
While creating your own is probably comparable to purchasing one, customizing your own is more beneficial (to the orientation of your photos/art and your brain). If you have a collection of photos that you want to hang together it would be difficult to find a collage frame at a store that would match your specific needs-creating your own would be to your benefit (especially if you like this kind of DIY crap like I do). So tune in tomorrow.
Also, for your viewing pleasure, check out this link that I found particularly entertaining today.
