  • My name is Steven. I'm 28; I'm a visual artist. I write a weekly arts review column in Winnipeg, where I also teach university (I've written and taught in other places, too). I'm from Tampa, Florida and before I moved to Winnipeg, I went to school in Baltimore and Windsor. This blog is for things I'm working on and things that interest me.

I’m not actually sure if I’m going to put the piece into the sale after all, since I had to do a bit of a rush job with the plaster and fresco layers. I’m going try laying on some varnish tonight and seeing if that’s enough, and I’ll play it by ear from there. [previously]

I have to remind myself that the plastering process would seem much sadder if it wasn’t SO TREMENDOUSLY IRRITATING.

Yesterday it was, like, 100°F and today it feels like late-(Florida-)October (in a good year). Seasons are very confusing to a person who didn’t grow up with them. I walk around all, “It’s Halloween! It’s Halloween! It’s… not even Labor Day yet.”
