I finally got down to the Murakami exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum . It was really great, right up my alley. He’s done some amazing things with bright colors and flat cartoony art, it really blew my mind. My favorite part is called ” So Many Flowers” which apparently (according to the description on the wall) also translates to “Cuteness! Summer vacation.”
It consists of a huge room wallpapered with brightly colored flower designs, in the middle of which is a flower sculpture and several flower paintings on the wall. It was very busy, bright, and beautiful. Almost psychedelic. Some visitors were heard to say that the room made them dizzy. ^_^ Of course I ended buying a cute flower pin that was in the gift shop on the way out.
Dolltopia was name-dropped on Pop Candy, Whitney Matheson’s fun pop culture blog for USA Today. Cool!
It’s been a while, but I have a new Powerpuff Girls story in Cartoon Network Block Party #46! On the stands now!
I’m privileged to once again have a story in Lady Churchill’s Rosebud Wristlet, the excellent speculative fiction ‘zine published by Small Beer Press. It’s a comic about snakes! Order it at this link!
Time for another fun art show and I’ve got two new paintings in it!

MOCCA Art Fest was fun as usual, I debuted Dolltopia 2 and it had a very good response! I also presented the Lulu of the Year Award (congrats to winner Martina Fugazzotto) at the Lulu Awards which was fun and well attended. Great job Marion! I have a few pics from the event here:

Sorry, not too many photos were taken (by me anyay) but I got some cool new books! Goddess of War, Freddie and Me, and Chiggers were the big purchases I made and Ivy and The Hookah Girl are among the cool zines I got. Also, meeting Cecil Castellucci was a highlight. Also got to meet Rachel from Cupcakes Take the Cake and Whitney Matheson of Pop Candy fame, lots of cool bloggers about! I have a huge pile to read now!
Update: Tazza no longer carries the mocha sandwich T_T but they do still have a LOT of yummy desserts including a giant oreo which is quite similar. They also just opened a second location (also in Brooklyn Heights) at 72 Clark St. Congrats to them!
