easter candy is the best holiday candy there is. if you disagree, your mouth is broken.

did you ever wonder how peeps were made? oh, yes? then let me show you:

mad genius bonus hour:

i got an email from jon at enjou chocolat the other day, complimenting my work. this was very exciting because i have long dreamt of being willy wonka someday, and also because flattery works wonders on me. he asked if i might give a go at making a tiny version of his… are you ready? CHOCOLATE DIPPED PEEPS.

that is some goddamn taking the sunrise and sprinkling it with dew action right there.

if you wanted to actually try some of these you can buy them here. to see my version (tooth cracking, unsatisfying) click here.

xxoo

and! and! it moves:

i have had the great honor to be invited to participate in GOTHTOBER 2010, a curated time-release online museum of 31 works of art by 31 different artists.

the official run of the show is from october 1st to the 31st, with a new piece being revealed with each day of the month.

you can check it out here, immediately (click the number one, that’s me)!

and here’s a very sweet post about my participation, written by the dark mistress of gothtober herself, jp parr.

sorry for the poor quality and the fact that i keep going out of frame!

got to uh, hide those trade secrets!
