Diptych which also is going on my new business cards

Title says it all, really. In other news, I'm also working on rebranding my entire site, re-inventing Little Yeti, writing an eBook and a graphic novel, and putting together a gallery show. Sounds about right to kick off a new year.

New wedding invites up!

So over at the little yeti cave, some new(ish) wedding invitation designs are finally up! Yay actual pictures to sell!

Other than that, hopefully I'll be posting some of the paintings/prints I finally got around to photographing recently. However, the cleaning of the apartment (in past days known as hosing down the pigsty) takes priority, as the Eve's parents are staying with us on Friday. Eep! Time to clean!

I need some focus

So my sleep cycle has been seriously messed up this past week due to Spring Break. Also, on Saturday night I ended up falling asleep early, like at around 6pm. I ended up waking up at 10pm, then I stayed up a nice 27 hours through Sunday. I then woke up at 3pm on Monday, slept at 3am Tuesday morning, then fell asleep at 10pm Tues.night. Now, it's 6:38am on Wednesday. I ended up waking up at about 2am, tossing and turning and thinking for 3 hours until 5, when I got up, showered, ate some rice, and have been fucking around on the computer for a while now.

The thing that really gets me is that I was super awake in bed thinking about art, and projects I want to work on, and shit I'm excited about, but once I got my ass up and ready to work on stuff, all my motivation drains out of me and I just want to play Settlers of Catan online for hours on end. Gah!

Anyway, on a good note, I finally got the barebones of Little Yeti up and running, and you can check out my site and my Little yeti blog at www.littleyeticave.com. Woot! Now I just need to fill in all those goddamn filler pagers with some actual content. Sigh. So much to do, yet after I finish posting this instead of editing the zine I need to publish, paint, design my personal website, etc., etc., etc., guess what I'm going to go play?

December update

So I apologize for the lengthy absence...been super busy with stuff, finishing up finals, etc.

So I'm starting work hard-core on Little Yeti, as I need to get it up (ideally) by February 1st. Sooner is probably better, but I want to make sure I'm not totally going nutso on the site without any substance to back it up. I mean, there will definitely be a learning curve, but hey, I don't want to wait to launch until I have EVERYTHING completed, right?

Anyway, as a little preview of the aesthetic to come, I've taken the steps of fully do business as Little Yeti, and have registered www.littleyeticave.com . Also, due to a misprint (my fault) in our holiday cards, www.monkeyandseal.com is also up, albiet being a crude, crude, barebones site.

Eve and I are hard at work creating new products for Monkey + Seal, as well as getting Little Yeti up and going.

Special props to Lindz for hooking me up with some great marketing ideas and some business contacts. Yosh!

Anyway, I'll upload some pictures of my final projects soon once I get them uploaded and color corrected. I'm glad I've made contacts with some people who do art/product photography as that will be a crucial part of the business. Yosh!

Now Eve and I are going out for an adventure! Yay!

Feedback please? Comments or email work fine.


PS - I finally registered Little Yeti as a business name, as well as the domain www.littleyeticave.com. There is still a long way to go, but huzzah!
