Lars loves all of the flowers popping up this Spring.
Tortoise performed TNT live at The Art Institute of Chicago’s Midwinter 2019. I know what I’ll be listening to during work tomorrow.
This afternoon, while working on new type styles in the Minted Component Library, I turned on a live stream of Mexican Institute of Sound. Incredible sound coming from these guys. It’s certainly boosting my productivity!
KEXP just posted a set by Phosphorescent. Love this band.

Back when I had a little more time, I liked to create multi-colored linocuts. I really loved carving for days, not being able to see the results until the first print. Some day I’d like to get back into that, but in the meantime I’ve tried to recreate the same technique digitally. It’s not quite as therapeutic, but it is fun drawing in reverse. I’ve been experimenting with how to achieve the look using Lars’ favorite cartoons as the subject matter. This one is Wanda and the Alien.
Hey Spotify, thanks for putting Serenade To A Poodle in my Discover Weekly playlist. I have no idea what I’ve been listening to that made you think I’d like that, but it put a smile on my face.
Best thing I’ve found on the internet in a long time. Pure talent and creativity.
Merry Christmas!
John Prine is in town tonight, and sadly I’m not there. Hopefully I’ll catch him at Red Rocks someday. For tonight, I’ll pour a glass of wine and listen to Fair and Square.
