Goodbye, Blogger.

I'm kind of over this blogging format and the tiny images it requires.


In the future, I'll be posting at http://srohlfs.tumblr.com/, so be sure to check that out. It looks like nothing at the moment, but I'm leaping before I blog.

Tilt-Shift Photography added to must-learn list.

Somebody needs to teach me how to do Tilt-shift photography.I very much desire to simulate miniatures. I've really got to get going on getting myself a fancy digital SLR to play with. Or a motorcycle. Or an MFA. If only I could plant a money bush. Teach me how, Ngugi wa'Thiong'o!

Oh, and please check out Kris Atomic, the source of the lovely image above (and many others, as well as a delightful illustration of "Chronic Bitch Face, a disease from which I believe I suffer.) I try not to include girly things in this blog because it's absolutely besides the point, but I like them and it's my blog, damn it. Get your own.

Another from the road trip.

Open Studios 2011 at The Hive

Open Studios are coming up at The Hive.
I'm sure all 15,000 of you blog readers (hi, mom) will be attending.

The Hive is opening its doors as part of the East Bay Open Studios event put on each year by the Pro Arts Gallery here in Oakland. They're promoting the event as including over 400 artists in 14 cities in the East Bay, though I suspect Oakland and Berkeley will be the best represented.

So put on your walking shoes (who am I kidding, I know you'll be driving. It's California...) and get ready to eat terrible snacks and see some wonderful art. I'm already starting to tidy up for you.

Another from the road trip.

From last summer's road trip.

Thanks to the awesome folks at Fecal Face for the heads up on Jon Rafman's amazing screen captures from Google Earth. See them here, they're truly spectacular.
