State of the Brassy

Posted on February 9, 2011 by BrassyDel

When I made my two resolutions at the end of December, I wanted to be able to track my progress throughout the year via the blog. I figured I would post once a month through the year. To be honest, one of the things I hate most about New Years Resolutions, as an institution, is how they are often very…

Isla Muerte: The Art Commission – PART FIVE

Posted on February 7, 2011 by BrassyDel

Isla Muerte: The Art Commission PART FIVE Part One, Part Two, Part Three, Part Four Filadelfo stared at the portal’s panel while considering his options. He briefly considered leaving the portal alone and heading back into the hallway, but in the end he grabbed the ruby and moved it to the position labeled CumGuv Ku. At first, nothing happened, and…

Friday Photo: Kitties are Delicious

Posted on February 4, 2011 by BrassyDel

Pixie, probably contemplating hunting down Kitten or Willis (by the tail). Om nom nom! If a plush kitty is so delicious, just think about those ones that move around on their own and make all those purring and meowing sounds!

Sneaky Filadelfo Illos

Posted on February 1, 2011 by BrassyDel

I drew a new illustration for last week’s installment of Cholma’s story: Isla Muerte: The Art Commission. This is Filadelfo, staking out the area outside Mr. Wallace’s abode. I’ve also added the illustration to the original post, but wanted to add it to the sketch blog too so everyone would know it was actually there.

Isla Muerte: The Art Commission – PART FOUR

Posted on January 31, 2011 by BrassyDel

Isla Muerte: The Art Commission PART FOUR Part One, Part Two, Part Three Not wanting to risk leaving a possible unknown threat to his rear, Filadelfo the Frosty decided to make a quick check of the bed chamber. Making sure the hallway was clear, he slipped quietly from the wash room to the open door of the bedroom. Peering inside,…

Friday Photo: Pixie at the Zoo Gift Shop

Posted on January 28, 2011 by BrassyDel

Is there a cuter baby ever? NO, NO THERE IS NOT. I took this photo back in May at the Denver Zoo in one of the small satelite gift shops. She did not wind up bringing either of those plushies home, but she certainly got other toys at the big gift shop before we left (and a book!).

Isla Muerte: The Art Commission – PART THREE

Posted on January 24, 2011 by BrassyDel

Isla Muerte: The Art Commission PART THREE Part One, Part Two. It was just before the sun rose the next day that Filadelfo the Frosty made his way up Walker Hill. When Lady Celeste had said that David Wallace lived on the hill, the wizard hadn’t thought anything of it. Many people lived on the several hills that made up…

Molecular Sea Painting

Posted on January 21, 2011 by BrassyDel

This painting isn’t as old as some of the others. I think it’s from… 2004? Ish. It’s inspired by the variety, globs, and chaos that goes on inside our cells. This is what happens when you have a love both for art and for cell biology, and I’m really not at all apologetic for it. Anywho, this one makes me…

Friday Photo: Arctic Fox

Posted on January 21, 2011 by BrassyDel

These beautiful dudes are from the Denver Zoo, and apparently they don’t let you snuggle them or even give them Milk Bones. What kind of zoo is this?! I’m sorry you’re so mistreated, Arctic Foxes. Trust me: if they let me give you Milk Bones, I totally would.

On The Catwalk

Posted on January 20, 2011 by BrassyDel

Yesterday we got only a small amount of snow, but the weather conditions were just perfect for Mother Nature to issue a big, laughing, one-finger gesture to all of the rush hour drivers in Boulder (which included The Hubbles). He stayed at a friend’s house, who lives about 5 minutes from The Hub’s work, and yet it still took over…
