Surprise Art Show!

The Hideout gave us the walls for March, so I went down there yesterday to hang a few pieces. Since this wasn't planned I don't have anything brang new up, though I will try to get some new pieces ready in time for SXSW.

STAPLE! is this weekend, March 5-6, so that's my top priority at the moment. March is going to be a busy one, it seems!

Sea Slug

My plan for today is to head downtown and take a bunch of feep photos. Hopefully it won't pour rain on me during this little exercise.

Raspberry Nautilus

A bunch of new feeps await their moment before the camera lens. Hopefully I can get them all photographed this weekend.

Green Tentacle Twist

Uh, yeah, I totally want that cow bone for my ... dog ....

Candy Cane Octopus

Today is to be a day of much feeping. STAPLE! hurtles ever closer!

Halloween Snat

So I'm playing this game called Bookworm, where you have to make words out of randomly-generated letters. Turns out "snoot" is a valid word, but "snat" and "feep" are not.

Grinning Feep-o-Lantern

What February really needs is a bit more Halloween.

Coil Cyclops

I'm not convinced getting out of bed this morning was such a great idea.

Blue Coil Tentacle Twist

Clearly someone forgot to iron the night sky.

Spiral Round

Got a few feeps made yesterday, trying to use up the Kato polyclay I got as an experiment. Turns out the advantages it has over Premo are slim and not worth the disadvantages. So, back to Premo for me.

Coil Barnacle

Don't forget to scrape your fence periodically to remove barnacles. Sure, a few here and there might help with ballast, but get enough of 'em and your whole fence could sink.

Tentacle Cat at the Ren Faire

From last March. Which means the Austin Ren Faire will be upon us soon! I'll have to see which feep wants to tag along for 2011.

Blue Squid

I think this squid is being a wee bit optimistic about which way the weather shall trend.

Green Squid Wine Charm

Seems a squid would be handy (tentacley?) with a waiter's key.

Blue Glow Cat

Blue is the color for my cat today, who would like it to be known that she is freezing to death*, and must therefore under no circumstances break physical contact with the fuzzy blue blanket.

* Current temperature in Austin is an apparently frigid 52 degrees.

Von Snoot Snake Orneryment

Add a bit of organic monsterness to your urban industrial design!

Shiny Purple Dragon

In theory I should have been working on new feeps lately, but I've been sick all week, so very little of a productive nature has happened. I am on the mend, though, so perhaps some new feeps shall emerge in the next few days.

Orange Cat Demon Necklace

Some might say it's strictly arbitrary, making a distinction between "cat" and "cat demon," but I feel it's important for the sake of taxonomy.

Tentacle Twist SnowQuest comes to an inevitable end

Alas, this being Texas, the snow barely lasted into the afternoon. Thus were our intrepid, betentacled explorers left bereft of white, powdery landscape in which to roam.

Tentacle Twist, Intrepid Snow Explorer

A search for sticky snow yields a false positive.

Blue Tentacle Twist

Pure as the driven snow. As long as the purity we're talking about is "pure tentacles."

Tentacle Twist Tracks

Yesterday's snow has allowed us to learn what sort of tracks a tentacle twist makes.

Mouth Monster Snow Blur

It has snown! This picture is actually from last year's snow, but I'm going to try to take some pix today of the feeps in today's whiteness.

Feepcicle Orneryment

I didn't manage to post yesterday because the rolling blackouts in Texas left me with power for about 15 minutes each hour, so time on the computer was limited and focused. And today's fun is due to my having forgotten to drip the hot tap last night, so the pipe froze. So a frozen feep for you today.

Blue Squip

I think this feep, being somewhat alike unto a slug, is hiding from today's frosty weather.
