I’m working on a new series of punctuation marks on 12 x 12 canvases. I’ll do the positive and negative versions of each mark on a lightly tinted canvas. I finished the first set today – interrobangs on a light, light blue canvas.
Also on the punctuation list: pound sign, @ symbol, ampersand, bracket, brace… really any punctuation mark I think of. I’m open to suggestions though!
Finished another piece for my Etsy site yesterday. I’m trying to get several pieces made to fill up my shop. It’s pretty barren right now. Anyway, this one was inspired by Jeff Clark’s eyeglasses. Don’t ask me why, because I don’t know. I was just thinking of those eyeglasses and then made this. Anyway, I asked Jeff what his favorite color was, and he said orange. So the background is a subtle range of oranges. I used gray keys because they really stand out against the orange.
Upon seeing this, Tanner immediately requested that I make him the old OSU block logo in the orange/gray color scheme. But then, Tanner wants to keep almost every one of these I finish!
I make things out of computer keyboard keys. For example, allow me to introduce you to Tux the Linux penguin:
Tux is comprised of over 300 keys in four shades, and his name is spelled out in his belly. Other than that, there are no letter keys. He is posted on an 18″x24″ canvas. I made Tux out of keys because I thought it would be fun (it was) – but now I don’t have a place for him and he has just been sitting in my office doing nothing. lazy penguin. So, he’s for sale. I’m asking $200 O.B.O. – if you are interested, hit me up @ jorydotcom.etsy.com!
