alright, so i've been to this art show three times in one week. i've officially decided that these three are my favorite pieces on display:
plasticgod's hello kitty icons
tessar lo's together, we can do anything
and Jason Han's I Haz Mouth
i'm loving andrew brandou's newer pieces of characters made of flora parts.
image and info from trendland.
it's not possible to see it all in one visit...
this was our Hello Kitty high tea set; so much food. there were little HK rings on the cupcakes.
i tried my hand at the claw machine this time. no go, but still fun.
i can't get enough of the pop-up store either. let me know if you want me to find something for you next time i go. click on the store display image below to see Sanrio's anniversary items.
and of course the art mesmerizes me...
feel free to print and reward people at your halloween party(s) this weekend!
click here or on the images to go to the paper fashion etsy store.
i'm not the greatest painter; i definitely need to practice more. its almost my grandparents' birthdays though, so these are their birthday presents. they're small, acrylic on canvas...
i might like the backgrounds of just water and sky more than the final product :P
my current plan is to go back to Three Apples three more times, but here is the recap for opening day. there was a grand opening VIP party thurday oct. 22, and it was open to the public friday oct. 23, so i gathered my girls and made dinner plans for friday night. our wait for a table was really long, but there was plenty of eye candy to keep us occupied...
the hello kitty pop-up store had a bunch of limited editions anniversary products. i bought cousin tiffany and me the last two tokidoki-hello kitty watches.
this little tree had hello kitty cell phone charms from all around the world! i found the black egg charm from when i went to a hot spring near mt. fuji hanging on it.
check out hello kitty alll blinged out!
we sat next to the wall displaying ron english, yoskay yamamoto, martin hsu and more. during our dinner martin hsu came by to see his painting and cousin yvonne called out to him because she knew him! he signed my exhibition book and drew in my sketchbook. now imagine my massive smile.
his painting sold to Sanrio, and will be displayed at their headquarters according to his site.
just in time for craola's upcoming Pearl Thief show at Gallery 1988, his website is all updated with a new online store...
i'm having way too much fun drawing hello kitty this week...
camilla d'errico posted her piece on her blog, and i love the mix of sanrio characters into one of her signature helmet girls.
from Industrial Design Served.
so i just signed up for The Scavenger Project 2 with Art House Co-op. anyone wanna do this with me?
organic fruit puree dessert never looked so fresh and wholesome.
