Van Morrison

"Van Morrison at the Hollywood Bowl ," The New Yorker, February 9 & 16, 2009

"Astral Weeks Live at the Hollywood Bowl" by Van Morrison was recorded last November. Art director Max Bode asked me to do an illustration for the album's upcoming release. I decided to revisit the feel of my Kimya Dawson piece but with shapes implying the Hollywood Bowl and the color palette from the original album art for "Astral Weeks."

I also did a second, trippier version inspired by psychedelic artists Peter Max, Tadanori Yokoo and medieval star charts.

Amble through Bramble

My good friend Morgan Levine will be on the Martha Stewart Show, Wednesday at 11am on NBC. She will be featured in two segments explaining how to fold crepe paper flowers.

Morgan's also set up an online store, Amble through Bramble, where you can buy her paper flowers (dipped in resin) as barrettes or brooches! She also has invited Emily L. Eibel and me to sell prints and original works in her Guest Exhibition section!
