I am an artist, a designer, an actor, a writer, a maker of things that are odd, and a soon-to-be-husband.

I have my face on a book and I like to tweet as well.

only 20 days + new pics

Yes…that is correct…only 20 more days until the big day!

In honor of such an auscpicious occasion, I thought I’d post a few engagement pictures that our good friends Ben and Whitney of Brighten Photography took of M and I while she was in Seattle a few months ago for my graduation.

20X200 = hotness

20x200 by Jen Beckman is easily my most favorite place to peruse and purchase great art for super cheap.

Every Tuesday and Wednesday at 2pm EST, they upload fresh works for you to buy.

20x200 works like this:

  • 2 large (30”x40”) prints are sold at $2000.
  • 20 medium (17”x22”) prints go for $200/per.
  • 200 smaller ones (8.5”x11”) are sold at 20 bucks a pop.

So if you need some great pieces for your new place (I DO! I DO!) but can’t afford the local mall gallery and aren’t terribly interested in the latest mass-manufactured city skyline or faux-acrylic from IKEA then take a look at 20X200.

Print above for sale by Linzie Hunter.

MHGS WHAT IF NO. 1

While I posted this many months ago, I thought I would do so again since we are doing our final edits on film no. 2.  My good friend Sam from Difted shot and edited this with me.

About the film:

As the national sponsor of Brian McLaren’s Everything Must Change Tour, we were given 5 minutes to show a short film about MHGS.

My deepest hope when I wrote and shot it was that it would reflect the beauty of MHGS by asking the question, “what if you truly believed the gospel could change the world.” - Blaine

culture w/o the celebrity worship

I’ve been doing some work for the other journal these past few months.  The other journal is an online publicaton by some friends at MHGS. They publish some interesting stuff.

Here are a few comps for some things we worked up this spring…

feed me

When I switched over to tumblr I forgot that I would lose my old feed and that people who were following along would no longer be able to.  Dumb me.

Anyway…30 days is almost up for the that feed and then it will be lost forever somewhere deep inside the interweb.  Please discard that stinky old feed before it is too late.

So…if you want to make sure you’re getting the freshest stuff please use the link below to add the new feed for this blog to whichever reader you use for sweet syndicatedness.

If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face - forever.

M’s sister, Colleen, just started reading Orwell’s Animal Farm.  Sober reading for a 12 year old I believe.
