So in my spare time i've been making jewels and stuff... because i want you to look cool. Hand made and colored with shrinkydink plastic. Old school, i know. Get cute earrings and help fund my studio work, its pretty much a win win situation. It's all in my etsy shop along with some custom Blythe doll eye chips. ;) Have at em.

My studio is getting crowded again, so I've temporarily added some originals to my etsy shop. I will not be having any more exhibitions until August. So in the mean time, I have added a user friendly list of galleries where you can find originals on my website. (rudyfig.com)

(The etsy shop is temporary, so have at it while it lasts)

Cheers for now.

"The last walk before the great sleep"
Originally uploaded by Rudy Fig

Im in the mountains at an elevation of 2,000 feet. No Shower, No Bathroom... No stairs... Just mountains, redwoods, elk and .... more mountains. Its about an hour out of the way down the mountain to the nearest town if we need anything. Our car battery exploded and corroded our spark plug wires... Harley is really beefing up from all the exercise. I cant really paint here because i'm sitting in a big dewy cloud, but i can still draw. Im going to paint like a mad beast once i get on flat land again... (This is a sketch for a painting called "The last walk before the great sleep" It is about the death of Poopooberry, my childhood cat and friend...) I will be 21 Very soon.

Harley in the woods....

He is a great dane, almost twice the weight of myself. If you haven't met him yet, you will because i don't leave home without him. Hmmm, i guess everywhere is home now... I figured it was important that he visits the giant trees, you know, because he is a giant dog. Just for formality if not anything else...

THIS IS how we do it in the big bad woods...
