<span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong>Method To My Madness </strong></span><br />
Starting April 19th I'm going to take students on a little trip into my studio. From beginning to end I'm going to let students tag along as I conceive and create a piece of art. We start off with the inspiration and design- I'll show students how I begin a piece and what I do to research and prepare. I'll then take students into the world of hunting and gathering- flea markets and trash bins for supplies. Maybe a stop off at an art store or two for other goodies. Next construction and paint. - watch me build and paint and finish. I'll be giving commentary during the process. Finally a final critique of what I've done. Not sure what I'm going to make yet…could be just about anything....but who knows?<br />

More Questions?<br />
• How much does it cost? $99.99<br />
• When does it begin? 4/19/14<br />
• How does it differ from live class? Online classes allow for a bit more in depth explanations of techniques etc.<br />
• Will there be video? A: Yes. I have about 180 of minutes of protected video that only students will be able to access.<br />
• Will it be live? No. I will not be doing live video, but I will be setting up a Yahoo Group where I will be available to discuss your questions. However I each week I will record a video responding to all the questions posed in the Yahoo group.<br />
• Can you tell me more about the Yahoo Group? Students can access this anytime and discuss issues with other students. A gallery is also available for students to share current and past works.<br />
• Is the class segmented or do I get everything at once? I have designed the class so you will have access to all the information at once and can play with it as you like, at your own speed. New weekly videos will pop up with additional tidbits and tips.<br />
• What kind of site is being used to host this class? I'm using a protected TypePad account. • How will I access the TypePad account? When class begins I will send out passwords and usernames to all the students. <br />
• What else will be on the blog? Along with the Videos I will be posting the major questions as they come up, and the solutions. I will also do weekly video addressing these questions.<br />
• Is this for Beginners or Advanced students? It's for everyone. I've made it so it is information that can be used by all levels.<br />
• Will it be entertaining? Geez, I hope so. I will try and make it very un-dry and fun.<br />
• How will you accept payment? PayPal. <br />
• If you don't use PAYPAL...don't worry...we can work something out. Just send me and email. • What will happen after I sign up? I'll send you a confirmation to say "howdy" and then just sit back until I start the Yahoo group. At that point you'll get an email inviting you to join prior to class and meet some of the other students. Then on April 19th, I will send out the TypePad site, codes, etc.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">In honor of the mystical, magical quality of Oaxaca, I
thought it would be interesting to explore some of the myths and legends from
Mexican culture.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The gods are wondrous
strange and the tales are even stranger.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>So for this class we will create assemblage constructions that represent
a specific deity or myth from the region.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It will be a bit of free for all…you can create whatever
you like but with a theme in mind.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>To help you out I will start sending out stories about the various gods
and heroes for a bit of inspiration.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Quetzacoatl (the rain god), Mictlantecuhtli (the god of the underworld),
and Coyolxauhqui (the moon goddess) are awaiting your arrival.</span></div>

<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Let's have a little fun dementing old books and journals. This online class focuses on transforming traditional book forms and turning them into bizarre and unusual works of art. We will do this in two parts. Part One: Taking Cover will focus on the exterior Part Two: Cave of Pages will be the interior. Each part can be taken independently or together to create one mighty nifty mixed media manuscript.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In this part of the class we will focus only on making interesting covers and backs for our book-ssemblages. This will be done taking book covers and modifying them or starting from scratch and creating a book using a variety of assemblage techniques and painting techniques. Perhaps you'd like a book to look like an ancient artifact dug up in a mummies tomb…or...something steampunkish is your preference…or maybe you'd like a cover that's a living breathing beasty…or something with a sci-fi twist that fell out of a visiting flying saucer. Whatever you're preference we will explore well beyond the traditional.</span><br>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What we're going to do in this class is start off with a base (could be a box, or a hollowed out book, or an emptied out photo album), then using other ephemera, photographs and found objects, we will transform it into a cave of pages. A visual tunnel leading you deeper into a gripping tale. What lurks behind the pages is up to you. Get ready to start reading into things.</span><br>

<p><span style="font-size: 18.000000pt; font-family: 'Cambria'">October 12 - December 7
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14.000000pt; font-family: 'MinionPro'">The Brumfields first discovered Michael de Meng’s work several years ago while visiting
the city of New Orleans. Having been fans of de Meng’s work ever since, they are pleased
to announce a show by the artist at Brumfield’s Gallery beginning in October. Primarily a
sculpture artist, de Meng’s pieces elevate discarded and commonplace items into darkly
beautiful and sacred relics, invested with both humanity and conflict.
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14.000000pt; font-family: 'MinionPro'">A long time assemblage artist, de Meng utilizes discarded items for his shrine-like works
and creatures, such as scrap metal, old appliances, or miscellaneous objects that would
typically be considered ‘junk’. The idea behinds these works is transformation. He seeks to
alter pieces that would normally be rejected into works of art and reverence. By borrowing
imagery from shrines and relics around the world, de Meng’s work transforms this ‘junk’
into pieces of beauty and meaning.
</span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 18.000000pt; font-family: 'Cambria'; font-weight: 700; font-style: italic"> </span><span style="font-family: MinionPro; font-size: 14pt; ">De Meng describes his works as,</span></p>
<div class="page" title="Page 2">
<div class="layoutArea">
<div class="column">
<p><span style="font-size: 14.000000pt; font-family: 'MinionPro'">
“</span><span style="font-size: 14.000000pt; font-family: 'MinionPro'; font-style: italic">a form of rebirth from the ashes into
new life and new meaning. These
assemblages are metaphors for the
evolutions and revolutions of
existence...the forms are examinations
of the world in perpetual flux, where
meaning and function are ever-
changing.”
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14.000000pt; font-family: 'MinionPro'">While de Meng’s initial purpose is
to simply find order in a world of
chaos, the results are pieces that
have taken on a new life, developed
from their former selves.
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14.000000pt; font-family: 'MinionPro'">While most artists tend towards
privacy and secrecy when
discussing their techniques, de
Meng couldn’t be more open about
his artistic process. The artist is
not only unguarded about discussing
how and with what he makes his
assemblages, he teaches workshops
showing the very same processes
that he utilizes to create their own
works of art from scraps and junk-
yard finds.
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14.000000pt; font-family: 'MinionPro'">Indeed, de Meng utilizes teaching to his advantage. Though he admits balancing the two
careers can be difficult at times, the demands of each career keep one another in check.
De Meng’s career has also taken him along the path of writing. Now the author of two
books, ‘Secrets of Rusty Things: Transforming Found Objects into Art’ and ‘Dusty Dia-
blos: Folklore, Iconography, Assemblage, Ole!’’. He sees writing, like teaching, as another
outlet for his thoughts and creativity.
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14.000000pt; font-family: 'MinionPro'">Michael de Meng’s opening reception will be on Saturday, October 12 at Brumfield’s
Gallery in Hyde Park. The event will be open to the public and will run from 7 – 9 p.m.
with a no-host bar provided by 13th Street Pub and Grill. The exhibition continues
through Sunday, December 7. Brumfield’s Gallery is open Tuesday through Saturday,
10 a.m. – 5 p.m. </span></p>

<span style="color: #a2c4c9; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I know, I know it's been a bajillion years since my last post. It's been one friggin busy summer. I actually, for the first time for a long time, have a month of studio time...unbelievable and much needed. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So I've been working and working while I can.</span></div>

<span style="color: #a2c4c9; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I'm getting ready for a solo show that's coming up in Boise Idaho opening Oct 12th at Brumfield's Gallery. Unfortunately I'm not going to be at the opening, but I have hopes my little creations will keep me abreast of the goings ons. The gallery looks great and if you like my work I think you'll like some of the other folks represented. Here's a few of the other artists' work:</span></div>

<span style="color: #a2c4c9; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Also on the dance card...I've been busy making a piece for the annual Festival of the Dead exhibit at the Missoula Artists Shop. The Festival of the Dead is an annual parade through the heart of the University town of Missoula. About 20 years ago my friend Bev Glueckert and I started this crazy shindig....now it's one hell of a dead man's party. If you're in the area check out the show of Dia de los Muertos inspired art at the Artist's Shop and the Parade on the evening of Nov. 2</span></div>

The following events took place between the dates of June 11 and June 12 of 2013. It is a horrifying encounter, and at times may be difficult to watch, but I believe it is important for people to see the truth…before it is too late.</div>

So it's funny how things go...<br />
I was at the thrift store gathering dolly heads for my next online class and came across a plastic Colonel Sanders piggy bank. Well...who could resist that? <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiENEOrNANdlolt1AcxzkI9SlrrH-p6xD8RZ31BFaBbz5mvNKMZ-UH2S8g4Xb0OeTRJeLcZqyVLENaJuw8bL2jcThmDcNLuw3VtFG_zTqhE70jFVT-JDxsNNYPoq1dFYDRnmLud-w/s1600/smphotsdo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiENEOrNANdlolt1AcxzkI9SlrrH-p6xD8RZ31BFaBbz5mvNKMZ-UH2S8g4Xb0OeTRJeLcZqyVLENaJuw8bL2jcThmDcNLuw3VtFG_zTqhE70jFVT-JDxsNNYPoq1dFYDRnmLud-w/s640/smphotsdo.jpg" width="406" /></a></div>
<br />
When it arrived home I knew I had to do something out of the ordinary with it...but what? <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTdvP-3tlcBeKBv72Jkm9DunGa2yqt7TYAsxFZPybrOyH3Hra0-9Ze-EHiIt-T-lSjCQZXeKwrlrokzwiXJhpNzj3gbat4vtgN7IW_vxHe1ymQSp8OGjyNRuoFdFgX6QAfM1cuKA/s1600/800px-Beak_doctor_mask.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTdvP-3tlcBeKBv72Jkm9DunGa2yqt7TYAsxFZPybrOyH3Hra0-9Ze-EHiIt-T-lSjCQZXeKwrlrokzwiXJhpNzj3gbat4vtgN7IW_vxHe1ymQSp8OGjyNRuoFdFgX6QAfM1cuKA/s320/800px-Beak_doctor_mask.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
My inspiration came from masks you may have seen from from the Venetian Carnival....the masks that I am referring to in particular are the medico della peste masks...the Plague Doctor masks. Though, these days they are worn for festive reasons...once upon a time...they were worn to protect a physician from....the plague.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgenfRvJexxfze3kJ-916xdWTsmY6Xe6ZW2r9q8DOaKE5TyrY3KbaFKQij0g-vQ0zapGUtzIpk-kqa2OuWpxLei2TjwP7aS35MdkPq5rVfbecSn61KaYDlKV6QgkYRWM7TlACZ9bg/s1600/435px-Paul_Fu%CC%88rst,_Der_Doctor_Schnabel_von_Rom_(Holla%CC%88nder_version).png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgenfRvJexxfze3kJ-916xdWTsmY6Xe6ZW2r9q8DOaKE5TyrY3KbaFKQij0g-vQ0zapGUtzIpk-kqa2OuWpxLei2TjwP7aS35MdkPq5rVfbecSn61KaYDlKV6QgkYRWM7TlACZ9bg/s400/435px-Paul_Fu%CC%88rst,_Der_Doctor_Schnabel_von_Rom_(Holla%CC%88nder_version).png" width="290" /></a></div>
These particular physicians were given the task to treat the victims of the Black Death (bubonic plague) in the 1600's an ensemble was created for these grim doctors that consisted of a heavy overcoat made of waxed fabric, a mask with eyeglass openings and a cone nose in the shape of a bird beak. The doctors also would carry a cane or stick. The idea was that this costume would protect them from contracting the disease...since they believed the Black Death to be airborne. The cane was used to allow the physicians to...not very affectionately...poke and prod patients without getting to close. The beak on the other hand, was filled with scented substances and straw, to purify the air the doctor breathed.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
So what has this to do with the Colonel...nothing really. But it seemed strangely apropos that the founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken might be reincarnated as such a character....forced to dress as a bird as penance to the vengeful chicken gods. <span style="text-align: center;">So...assuming you buy into this fantastical storyline...here is the Ironic Reincarnation of Colonel Sanders:</span><br />

<span style="color: #f6b26b; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I have to admit I've made my share of shriney structures,
in my day, and I have created them from a variety of unusual items ranging from
license plates to stoves to shoes. This class will involve some serious
downsizing and transforming small objects like matchboxes, lighter cases, piano
keys, or other miniature vessels. Using a variety of itsy bitsy found objects
you will adorn this little pocket sized temples. What is housed in your little
shrine is entirely up to you... perhaps tiny model train people, perhaps a
small object that has symbolic meaning for you, or maybe you happen to be
friends with the Incredible Shrinking Man. Get ready to get tiny with your
shriney.</span></div>

<span style="color: #76a5af; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Okay, so I
have a little confession to make…I was totally freaked out by the witch in the
Wizard of Oz. Ironically, the flying monkeys…I loved. Of course I was always
into freaky weird things with wings; Vampires, demons, dragons (especially,
Ghidora the three headed dragon in one of those Godzilla movies I watched as a
kid). As for angels…I was cool with them too…they just need to be stoic and/ or
heroic but definitely not fluffy.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #76a5af; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">In this
class you’re going to pick your favorite flying thing (or something you’d like
to fly) and create a little scene where it can stretch its wings. Discarded
toys and found objects combined into something wild and wonderful using the
process of assemblage. Best yet, using a very simple pulley system, we will
make your creatures take flight…well at least flap their wings.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #76a5af; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Sort of
reminds me of the flying monkey theme song…you remember, don’t you? “Up, Up and
Away in My Beautiful Baboon”. I know, I know, I’ve stepped over the line for
bad puns…I just couldn’t resist.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #76a5af; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My stepdaughters have learned to keep there busted dollies hidden from me...or else they will get transformed into weird wacky things. Though. for a while, I noticed that each day my dolly collection seemed to grow smaller and smaller. Apparently what was happening was the youngest had conducted a number of rescue mission, to liberate the some of the busted dollies I had purloined. I was forced to conduct my dolly hunting expeditions outside the home into the jungles of the thrift shops. But even so...the little tikes seem to periodically disappear...my stepdaughters are admitting to nothing though.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #999999;">Nixing Nosferatus is not like getting rid of raccoons in the
attic. It takes skill and training but
it also takes the right tools and devices.
So in this workshop you will be using your artistic skills to modify an everyday
box or case into something that will send shivers down the spines of those nocturnal
lurkers. Of course, to make a proper
vampire hunting kit one must understand the type of vampire at large and use
the appropriate method to exterminate. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #999999;">Before you get to New Orleans you may want to
do a bit of research into the type of vamp your dealing with. In the famous
words of vampire hunter, <span style="text-decoration: none;">Hieronymous Grost</span>, “There are as many species
of vampire as there are beasts of prey. Their methods and their motive for
attack can vary in a hundred different ways.”
Take this into account when devising your kit You’ll start off with a nice portable briefcase, suitcase or toolbox and then you will transform it into a home for anti-vampire gizmos. Some of the items that you might deem necessary for you kit are things such as: </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #999999;">Undead Irritants - like garlic…silver….Britany Spears etc.. </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #999999;">Protective Baubles- amulets, religious artifacts, holy water, etc.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #999999;">Vampire Detectors- things that clue you into a vamp being in the room, like mirrors…though a bloodless corpse is a pretty good indicator.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #999999;">The Killing Device – things that will get rid of the rascals for good such as stakes, liquid sunlight, </span><span style="color: #999999;"> </span><span style="color: #999999;">etc.</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="color: #999999;">Don’t forget…the most important aspect of a Vampire Hunter’s kit is that it looks cool (vampires hate a stylin’ Vamp Hunter), so you’ll want to make sure you bring lots of nifty adornments for your stakes, vials, case, etc.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: black; color: #999999; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: center;">Each month I will put together a little video introducing a vampire film of note (some classic...some downright horrible yet fun). I'll give you a bit of vampire lore and film history and a few clips. Your job will be to track the movie down and watch it. </span></div>

You want to know what I hear all the time when someone who is familiar with my art meets me for the first time? "Wow, I thought you'd be much weirder in person." Yes it's true. I'm a fairly normal-ish dude….other than my obsession with vampire movies and transforming dollies into various monstrosities. So it seemed to me I should write a little post on why I think that is…why is my art weird and why does an everyday guy like myself lean toward a darker aesthetic? Well I'll give you a few reasons that I think this is the case</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. Simulates Danger…Without Being Dangerous.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSxHBvAPFPQ42lAvK7lgbbqDyZs6q5FDvAhpUjYeB1OB2EGvMrQ8CQRPTjkVWNiPB4Z1wjAzWBydnRBwvjh3L3RqPH9-yeOKrJmM6cSznaQA14TPPl2MSgMU3B8BW2c20o8kfxcg/s1600/777CameraAwesomePhoto.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSxHBvAPFPQ42lAvK7lgbbqDyZs6q5FDvAhpUjYeB1OB2EGvMrQ8CQRPTjkVWNiPB4Z1wjAzWBydnRBwvjh3L3RqPH9-yeOKrJmM6cSznaQA14TPPl2MSgMU3B8BW2c20o8kfxcg/s320/777CameraAwesomePhoto.jpg" width="233" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We have all had or experiences where you feel out of control, where something dark and looming threatens us or someone we love. This could be anything from a home intruder to big ol' nasty black widow crawling across your face. Playing with dark themes gives you control of those frightening forces. A good example of this is how I started messing around with monsters in my art. When I was a kid I had nightmares about monsters….like most kids. My solutions was to draw them in ways that I could conquer them. A big ol cyclops would haunt me in my sleep….solution: I'd draw the big ol' cyclops being zapped by me with a ray-gun. Voila, I have conquered my monster. A funny thing though…over the years the monsters I created eventually became my friends…protectors if you will. The truth is that there are a lot scarier things in the world that cyclopses and vampires. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. We All Need Make Offerings to Our Dark Side.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9RikVEs5JPDXipkW2tt0RFy69VvsWeBvRxSYX641utbzRcvfuYwM-xggaPKnU3lhlgiGQd8Pl8eIMO14CCUolbSqFVvZivmrAE7RWGEsDROgiFazW4E9WSJR2bzpgsesD0MaW5Q/s1600/IMG_6275.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9RikVEs5JPDXipkW2tt0RFy69VvsWeBvRxSYX641utbzRcvfuYwM-xggaPKnU3lhlgiGQd8Pl8eIMO14CCUolbSqFVvZivmrAE7RWGEsDROgiFazW4E9WSJR2bzpgsesD0MaW5Q/s320/IMG_6275.JPG" width="239" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am a firm believer that we are all filled with light and dark. I also believe we need both. But the question is how to feed the dark without becoming an "evil-doer". From my personal experience, I know that if I didn't have art I would probably be a lost soul. As a kid I was shy and afraid…but I had my art. Sure my creations were a bit sinister, but better to make your piece with your dark side using Crayolas than allowing the darkness to consume you. In many cases I believe that fear and depression, and sometimes violence can be thwarted by creative thought.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. It's Fun Being Something We are Not</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4Gn4nRHBvebJNc7JJfZf6aRm1Hy-jUO0ptQoIBuhd6A0sD1H3XMRIDftUdU_HcRlJF8EzWpSzvmsLiNGhlHx1QQKXpDBAg7GbDx-tVxMXDmfzA9hZJAfhYH0eBX7JUWvSvlke0A/s1600/photo.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4Gn4nRHBvebJNc7JJfZf6aRm1Hy-jUO0ptQoIBuhd6A0sD1H3XMRIDftUdU_HcRlJF8EzWpSzvmsLiNGhlHx1QQKXpDBAg7GbDx-tVxMXDmfzA9hZJAfhYH0eBX7JUWvSvlke0A/s320/photo.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Most of my grimly inspired art friends (though not all) are actually very kind and gently people. I'm sure they get the same response from folks that I do about my art…ooooh it's so dark. But, you know, it's fun to play a part for a while. I am really not dark in the way I live my life but I can still experience devilishious things without become devilish. It's similar to the value of holidays like Halloween, where we be have fun playing a fiend. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. Tom Foolery Can Be Incredibly Inspiring</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqfHpiNJ_-H_AXwCroo0_o69aB-gJmZDygomqKDDHAT90w0OgwOMcHdnVH3F7RPJeuc9yYhqWAlFMApfcaUFNdY_dg-xtCqAMsL6e-Af1zojo3a7Xk-4hki-x2wWxvrgD0y8aCMA/s1600/CrabbyMaguilicutty.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqfHpiNJ_-H_AXwCroo0_o69aB-gJmZDygomqKDDHAT90w0OgwOMcHdnVH3F7RPJeuc9yYhqWAlFMApfcaUFNdY_dg-xtCqAMsL6e-Af1zojo3a7Xk-4hki-x2wWxvrgD0y8aCMA/s320/CrabbyMaguilicutty.jpg" width="239" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I see it in workshops I teach all the time…folks who are in creative ruts, but get an incredible surge of creativity when they can be a bit subversive. Recently I was teaching my "Baba Yaga BirdHouse" class, which is based on the slavic witch who live in a house that was perched on a giant chicken leg. I watched as an entire room of everyday folks did the most devilishly bizarre things. There were houses with big monster mouths, crazy periscopes popping out of the roof (each with glass eyes peering out), or with bat wings that flap. This group of mothers and wives,and grandmothers and husbands were having a blast making crazy creepy things. It seems to me that when dealing with an eerie subject matter, you can have a lot more freedom. This is because there is not the constraint of trying to be "pretty". Creepy can be almost anything and everything….to make something look beautiful, however can be much more limiting…mostly because when trying to create something of beauty there is often more reverence given to the viewers approval. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So next time you pull out a pencil or pen…or perhaps a dismantled crusty dolly head…don't be afraid to take a step on the dark side. Ironically you may be a better person for it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="color: #a2c4c9; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Once upon a time...</span><br />
<span style="color: #a2c4c9; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">a preschool version of me wrote a story called the Man in the Moon Monster. It started out with an astronaut heading to the moon. When he lands he is greeted by a giant cyclopian moon monster, who proceeds to crush the visitor's rocket ship. In response the spaceman whips out his ray gun and blasts the monster into outer space. Stranded, our hero radios earth for help, and moments later a compadre arrives to save the day. En route they fly past the monster floating lifelessly in space. Back on earth, the two astronauts land and are greeted with flower leis ( I was living in Hawaii at the time). The End</span><br />
<span style="color: #a2c4c9; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The climatic scene looked something like this:</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="color: #a2c4c9; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I had to draw this from memory. My mother has the original stashed away somewhere.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">Flash ahead forty some years later...I decided to do an reinterpretation of this story. Here's what I came up with:</span></span><br />

different than other workshops I've done. Students will not need to bring
a suitcase full of rusty things to take the class.... believe it or not, all
you will need is some basic art supplies..."The Five P's"(pencil,
pastel, paint, paste and photos) from there we will visit a variety of
wondrously strange places in the Mexican capital where we can sit, work
and be inspired. I will be giving instruction on journaling techniques,
sketching, painting, etc. I will also be showing students some nifty
effects using mobile phone/ ipad or small cameras. Every night we
will end with a show-and-tell of our art-ventures...perhaps while enjoying a
margarita, cerveza, or Aztec hot chocolate. <o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666;">So if you're anything like me, you miss the days of Saturday evening Fright Night/Creature Feature shows with bad movies and campy hosts. It dawned on me that it would be mighty fun to put together some videos for everyone...sort of like the good ol' Creature Feature days. Originally it was an idea that came about so attendees could plot and plan their kits while getting inspired...sort of a movie of the month club.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=29159709" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a><a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=29159709" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a><a href="webkit-fake-url://ACDC416A-45A4-46AB-9C30-83FA0ACDD100/vampyr.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a><a href="webkit-fake-url://ACDC416A-45A4-46AB-9C30-83FA0ACDD100/vampyr.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a><span style="color: #e06666;">Here's how it will work. Each month I will put together a little video introducing a vampire film of note (some classic...some downright horrible yet fun). I'll give you a bit of vampire lore and film history and a few clips. Your job will be to track the movie down and watch it. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666;">I've also set up a FaceBook Group that members can compare notes and comparisons of the various films. </span></div>
