'BROKEN HEARTS ARE FOR ASSHOLES' Group Art Show... Tomorrow!

Oh yeah! This will be a good one! 8 artist take on the title "Broken Hearts Are For Assholes" which was actually Bob's, (Brett), idea based off of Frank Zappa's song. I love the lyrics. Not a big Zappa fan but it sounds good. words. :)

Anyhoo... I did some new little arts for the show! Smaller ones that will be fun for people to connect with. Face it, we've all broken or been broken hearts so no one should be confused.

I did some more small stencils and drawings on rad found wood and other wood shapes ! Here's a few I did today! Yay! New art!





And as always, my pieces will be priced to sell. I rather people be able to come to the show and leave with some thing than try and market myself all ridiculously priced. I have a job friends. Not dependent on my art. I do it because I love it! And I like to share... so come get some!

Oh oh.... and I did some teeny tiny art! Mini art pieces that will be for sale as well!!


I'll probably put some ribbon on them or something! They are only about 5 inches high!
Yay mini art! (I love tiny things!)
