Reconsider your options.

My website is going to go under a major redesign in the next week or so where I'll be displaying leagues and leagues of work I haven't posted online from the last three years I've been at school. Not only will it include drawings and paintings that I've done, but also video, illustration, design, posters, and photography. I hope to also have my resume posted online by then but I still have some time for that.

The reason for this spontaneous revamp of the site is to make it easier for people who are interested in the Oceans posters (the shows are on March 12th and 13th) to access not only the posters I've been making all semester, but to also have the opportunity to order and purchase posters they are interested in. On top of that, if I'm expecting a little more traffic to the site I figure it doesn't hurt to have some more content and an easier navigation bar.

Congestion.

So I'm pretty sick. I've got the flu or something like it, just checked out the doctor and got a bunch of medicine to help me out. Hopefully I'll feel better soon, otherwise everything for school is going to be extremely late. I doubt I'll be able to do my installation on Monday if I don't start feeling better by tomorrow afternoon.

Last week I printed the posters for the Oceans shows on March 12 and 13. They'll be sold at both shows at the Empty Bottle in Chicago and The Courtyard Cafe in Champaign.



The blue is a lot stronger on the actual posters. Unfortunately I couldn't get the ink to thin out enough like in the .psd file. They still look alright though. I'm guessing they'll be sold from $15-$20 a poster if you're interested.

We were all laughing.

Big sighs of relief are coming from me at this moment. I finally started to buckle down my idea for studio after letting simple images of goldfish take over my brain for a few weeks there. I've been taking lots and lots of photos for class and I really feel that it helps me to articulate my other projects better. They all just end up working together somehow, I'm grateful for it.

Anyways, on Wednesday I went with Matt to screen print again. I ended up with some really nice prints of goldfish and in the process made 20 for Weiskamp to pay them back for their generosity. The 20 I made for them included an extra screen to advertise poster printing classes that they plan on giving in the future. Apparently it's being entered in some sort of contest, so we'll see how that turns out. In any case, I ended up with 27 posters for myself that I'll probably end up selling and giving to friends. If you're interested in one you should email me at katelamy@gmail.com -- they're twenty bucks a pop.

So after printing those posters I finally started to really think about the whole goldfish thing. I've been pretty infatuated with them for some unknown reason this last month or so, and I started to be more interested in the confusing obsession aspect of the whole thing. That just reminded me of really obsessive installation work and then it hit me: I should totally do an installation. Since I'm taking advanced painting that takes care of the painting I planned on doing this semester, so I can experiment a little more in studio.

I'm really psyched for it.
