(trombone shorty)

still a little heavy-handed with the ink, but i'm working on it. continuation of some relief prints i began awhile ago. mostly i just dig the way the block looks during the process..

lino block prints in progress..

"i've lost a lot of sleep to dreams"

dag i love that song.

been so busy lately with my mural class and my recent open studios, i've fallen a couple weeks behind on this blog. just to catch up, some recent painting activity..






and some recent printmaking activity (including my first attempts at my obsolete facebook self portrait idea)..

Randall Cunningham

looking to improve my lino block carving skills, here's some printmaking love for my favorite quarterback of all time..

Love & Acid Reflux

hmm, maybe that should be the title of my made-for-tv biography: "Love & Acid Reflux: The Julia Cocuzza Story."

lately i've been polishing off some small pesky ideas to make way for some big sexy ones. my "heart in a cup" lino prints are finally complete. some technical difficulties but still turned out decent.










with the left over ink and scraps of bristol board, i made these bad boys right quick. it's honestly a coincidence that i made something resembling valentines around valentines day. never been a huge fan of the holiday, usually too much pressure regardless of which team i'm playing for. but, whatev, they're kinda boring but maybe i can give one to my grammy or sell them cheap on etsy..












and my personal struggle with acid reflux continues. on canvas. not my prettiest work, but it kinda sorta gets the point across. first one's finished, second maybe, third definitely not..





and, you know, other stuff..
