HELLO AGAIN!

Hi, Dave Condry here.  It's been a while but I was on blogger today and thought it would be cool to throw an update on the good ol' 9th floor blog.  Here's my site: click this to see cool stuff. Hope life's going well for all you massartists out there.  Since it's a new year, I thought I'd put up this hopefull drawing.  This bird is called a magpie.  I never knew they existed till I moved to Colorado.  A lot of people can't stand them because they make annoying sounds.  I think they're awesome.

FELLOW ILLUSTRATORS/PAINTERS

I figured I should let you guys know. My dad, C. Michael Dudash, is offering portfolio critiques. He's probably the best painter/draftsmen I've ever know personally, & has lots of experience-rich advice to offer young artists. I can say first-hand his advice is above & beyond what many professional teachers have told me when it comes to the craft of painting, & is well worth the pricetag ($45). If you take advantage of it, let me know how it goes. Peace all!

Awe at the Spectacle of an Empty World

We awoke to the end.
We had each other.
We faced it hand in hand.

The sun shone red.
We looked at the sky.
The clouds opened on our bare faces.
Tastes. Bitter in our mouths.
We felt the last to feel.

Everyone lost.

We slipped: together.
We huddled in search of a warmth that had escaped us.

Things were empty.
Sounds echoed.

We… were.
We fell a little further down: empty, but together.
Stuck—we found each other.

The sounds reached a crescendo and we swelled.
Swollen with all of our might,
We strained against the weight.

All the words we wanted to say spilled out.
Like a river.
And we were lost.

Things were so real.
And.
All of this is true.

This piece started in Texas.

It began as a series of words and sentences that came to be a story. The story progressed and became an art piece. Each of the columns folds up into a book. Each print is 5x7in and each book is about 100in long.

88 prints, From left to right: etching, monotype, cut paper, embossment.

Sophie Lancaster

Thought I would share with you guys this short. I'm not sure if any of you read, but last year in Lancashire, England a 22-year-old woman was viciously beaten to death in a park essentially just for being goth. Her boyfriend was also beaten, but survived.
Yesterday would have been Sophie's 23rd birthday, and in her memory this animated short was created and was broadcasted on a 24-hour loop yesterday in Manchester's Cathedral Garden. It's really beautifully done.

Website up!

Hey dudes and dudettes,

I just made a website.

It's quite simple, and it's quite simply the first one I've ever made.

Any feedback is welcome, as I'm trying to improve it!

And also Happy Thanksgiving! (27 minutes too late)

Amazing Blog

Hey dudes and dudettes,

This blog was posted on Drawn.ca:

This guy is absolutely amazing at rendering and color, and there's a TON of work up on it. I highly recommend everyone take a look at it. I've never seen someone draw a face so well but make it look so easy.

I haven't posted anything on this blog for a while now, so here is new stuff:

an etching and a screen print, both with trees and houses.
Also, is there a member of this blog that still goes to MassArt and has a studio on the 9th floor? If this is you, perhaps it would be good to invite other illustration majors to join! Put up a flyer or something! Have them email Micah because he's the admin. Cheers!

If nobody new joins this blog then it'll be just alumni, and that's not the point, right?

Hope everyone is having a lovely fall,

-Mary

I DONT WANT TO GO BACK TO CLASS.

Pet Gazette!

Everyone Remember the Pet Gazette project? Well I just found out my artwork made the cover this month! It was a real surprise, since I was told at the time it was finished that it was too saturated for the cover. Cool Beans!
