About Me:
I'm a twenty-year old Art Student who does crafty things like paint, collage, and draw, and paint ducks. I love reading and movies, and I love puns way too much. I am an avid hockey fan (Go Buffalo Sabres!) and geek out on a regular basis.

I'm always looking for good movies to see and great books to read, so suggestions are welcomed with open arms. (:

Peace, Love, & Nerdfighters!

Find me on AIM and Skype as HolyPunsBatman.
Favorite Books, Movies, Music, and more
Pretty much anything by Irvine Welsh and Oscar Wilde; American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis, Walden by Henry David Thoreau, The Man Who Fell to Earth by Walter Tevis, The Ruins by Scott Smith, and Breakfast on Pluto by Patrick McCabe (Just to name a few. I adore books.)

Top Five Movies (In no particular Order): The Shawshank Redemption, Labyrinth, Moon, Choke, Sunshine
What's your favorite thing to put on your head?
Sunglasses
If you could do your happy dance with anyone who would it be with?
Anyone who will tolerate my terrible dancing skills.

Gene Simmons has a Duck

KISS came to our town on Saturday, and my dad had suggested that I make a duck of Gene Simmons. The timing was perfect since I had just gotten a batch of ducks from a friend. So the night before the show I made the Gene Simmons duck. My dad ended up taking the duck to work with him (at the show's venue) for a few laughs. Long story short, this happened:…

Travel Watercolor Kit Tutorial

For a while I've been searching for a nice, compact watercolor kit with a range of colors that I wanted. Oftentimes the searches came up with either cheap kiddie art sets or way overpriced kits that were not as compact as I would have liked. After searching for a while, I decided to take matters into my own hands and make a small watercolor kit that I could easily slip into my pocket or art bin. Here's the results, and a tutorial to make your own!…

End-of-the-year Art-A-Palooza! [Picture Heavy]

Alas, only one week of school left!



In honor of the soon-to-be-finished semester and my return to customizing ducks on a regular basis, I figured it would be cool to share the projects from the past semester that have been keeping me away. (My Drawing II assignments are going to be omitted from this because 99% of the drawings are of nekkid people. We did however, draw the model driving a shopping cart- It was awesome.)



So, onwards!…

i saw you were a chat ning master and so came by to say hi, but then got waylaid by this whole painting ducks thing--have to say a literal painting of an actual duck was my first rather silly thought--but now i see it seems to be part of your crafty-ness!

I spy with my little eye a Miller Ducky!!! I live in buffalo so when I came here to look at your ducky pics I saw a duck with a hockey helmet that looked a LOT like miller's I was awestruck. GO SABERS!... I actually just got back from a Pirates (the farm team) game. Its good to know I'm not the only Sabers fan nerdfighter out there! lol I would be more than happy to pay you for the materials if you could make and send me another Miller Ducky! Let me know!
