Plant, Pot

A little something I did over the weekend. I had forgotten just how much I love colored pencil.

The pot itself is from a very good friend who does wonderful things with clay, Cat Dubosky, who also lives and works here in Portland.

Well-Hung

So, the hanging of the show went well. Working with other artists can get tricky sometimes; even the most laid-back artist has an ego, and different ideas about how something should look. But after getting over the initial feeling of being overwhelmed by trying to fit everything into a relatively small space, it wound up being a fairly painless experience. Looks good, even.

Even with the unfortunate rendering of gillette stadium smack in the middle of things.

It's HeeEeeEEre......

The show at Shay's is currently up and will be there until the end of October. It looks great, thanks again to the very cool people at Shay's, and of course to Joe for inviting me into the show.

I do have prints for the Horsemen pieces, if anyone is interested, shoot me an e-mail, liz@freefallon.com.

October lurks.....

So October is nigh, and the show at Shay's will be here... it's funny how the best ideas for a project always come in the last few moments before it's due. And by "funny" I mean "frustrating." Anyway, I've been working like a crazy person to get things done to my satisfaction. It'll be a relief to have it done, so I can have my life back.

Ah, who am I kidding here? The second this one is done I'll be jumping right into another project and totally immersed once more. That is my life.

Pictured here is a detail from the Death piece.

Happy Trails......

The lovely Mr. Scott up and left us for warmer climes and some job-thing, fleeing to Houston earlier this month - and we here at Free Fallon wish him the best of luck, big scary Texans and all. We are also hoping, just a little bit, that maybe a certain Yankee artist might be receiving a gift of a cowboy hat in the mail for Christmas or just whenever, because we have always secretly wanted a cowboy hat but have been to embarrassed by our New York upbringing to actually go out and purchase one.

Anyways! freefallon.com may be in and out of service in the immediate future, we expect this will be ironed out shortly.

New Prints Available & An Update

Just picked up a new batch of prints from the good folks at Bayside Printing; 8 x 10's currently available for a bunch of different pieces from both the Wizard of Oz collection and my music themed pieces from awhile back. Email me if you have any interest.



Still plugging away at the Four Horsemen series, and I'm starting to be happy with the outcome. I've re-done most of them a couple times now, and with the third version of Famine I've finally hit it. I wish I could verbalize the "ooo" factor; that point where you cross from being a nice picture to look at to something more ....interesting, and I don't know how else to say that but I'm in interesting territory, here. Can't wait to share it!

If you're interested in prints, you can check out my flickr site - there's a set specifically for pieces currently available -
