Because I’m so excited for Siren Nation, I thought I’d share another reason why you should attend the Festival: TENDER FOREVER. Saturday night. Her performances never let me down.

What are you doing this Thursday? If your day planner has an empty space on November 5th, between 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM, you should stop by the Olympic Mills building to see Erin Nations at Siren Nation. Actually, stop by to see all the women involved in this great show.

Siren Nation is an annual music, film, performance, and visual art festival showcasing the work of women.

Thursday night is when the event kicks off, with the art opening titled, The Journey. There will be art, Djs, live performances, and probably ladies.

For more details, info, and a schedule of events (it’s taking place all weekend) check out Siren Nation.

Vinyl Killers was a blasty. If you didn’t get a chance to check out the opening that’s okay. The show will be up for a whole month. Head over to The Goodfoot. If you live out of town (Portland) check out the website. The art will be listed soon.

I decided to take her to Illustrator.

A co-worker insisted I watch Shaun of The Dead. He was baffled by the fact that I had never seen it before. So, I put it on my netflix and it arrived yesterday. I watched it this evening. Later, I felt like drawing zombies. I drew a zombie. Then, I drew the word “zombie”. The zombie was not in my normal style, so I’m just sharing the word.

For those who have ever asked me “Where can I buy your art?”, I have good news for you. I set up an Etsy account. Currently, I only have a limited number of screen prints for sell, but I’m hoping to add a variety of stuff in the future.

I’m not that great at quickly sketching people in public spaces. They always look like rough cartoons. Regardless, I still do it from time to time.

While sitting in the laundromat, I saw this man across the street, waiting for his bus.

And this is the song I had stuck in my head, while drawing him:
