Good morning! The sun is shining, and there’s some dude who swears he looks like Walter White in the back yard.

Back to work!

Well, despite our car being broken into AGAIN (twice in less than a year) on the day after Suzanne’s birthday, the installation is moving ahead. Here are some glimpses into the behind the scenes action.
See you at the Anacortes Arts Festival!

A few more photos from the painting frenzy in the studio, fueled by good food and too much coffee.

As the deadline for the Anacortes Arts Festival gets nearer, it’s exciting to see everything falling into place. On Monday, the acrylic bases for the underwater scape were ready for pick up, and a productive trip to a local hardware store netted casters, lights, pulleys, and more. The last of the specialized PVC joints arrived Thursday, so the frame went up that very day. And I have started painting the various smaller pieces, readying them to be hung in their appropriate places. A few of the bigger sections of the installation still need to be finalized, but it’s great to see an abstract concept becoming a concrete reality.
Here’s a few pictures of what’s going on. Please mark your calendars for August 2-3 to see the real thing in person!

Among the other projects and collaborations No Mine! is working on, Suzanne in particular has been exploring opportunities to infiltrate the fashion world. Here’s one sample of a shoe prototype sent in to Bucketfeet. If you would like to collaborate or see No Mine! Studios’ designs in other wearable formats, shoot us a line at nominestudios [at] hotmail [dot] com.

Earlier today, I said to someone that when designing this installation, I have been trying to make art that fits the theme while also making something that my daughter would like.
Considering my toughest critic just stole one of the “babies!” from my desk, I’d say the project is going swimmingly. (Wah wah.) Less than 3 weeks to go, so
Full Steam Ahead!
