Merch for the Crafter's Flea Market

I apologize - I'm not trying to over-promote myself. I was just so busy earlier that I didn't have time to upload pictures, and now that I'm waiting around for screenprints to dry, I figured I'd post a few of the items and stuff I've made for to sell tomorrow:

Bat Tank on paper

Necklace with Key Purse #1 - Open Robot Stationery detail Duct Tape Wallet #1 - Stripey (from side)

Moving On-ish

It's been three weeks since I quit my job (I wonder how long I'll measure time like that) and so far it's been... busy.

INFLATABLES
I've discovered boxes in our house that haven't been unpacked yet (over a year since we moved in now). I'm not sure what's in them, but it's probably not important. I've also discovered that we have a entire box of inflatable things. Fish, octopus, Spiderman, Gumby - the list goes on. What on earth should I do with them?

UPCOMING
I have an art show coming up.
Show Title: Lie Still, Little Bottle
March 2 - 31, 2007 at Kulture in Raleigh, NC
(Opening Reception - Friday 3/2)

Lie Still, Little Bottle is a series of six woodcuts I carved and printed about six years ago. The series has never been shown before. The prints are a sequential narrative based on the They Might Be Giants song of the same title. All of the woodcuts are done in black ink, 8 inches by 11 inches.

I'll probably re-post the details here and to the regional groups once it's closer to showtime.
See you on opening night!

Art Show

Hey everybody,
Remember all those robots you loved at my show a few months ago? Well I've let them out again!

Opening Reception:
Friday, November 11, 2005
for Leah Riley's Robot Overlords Show
at Chapel Hill Comics
412 W Franklin St., Chapel Hill, NC
6:00 - 9:00 p.m.

(that's this Friday, sorry for the short notice)

You've already seen this robots, you say, why would you come? Well, here's three simple reasons why:
1) Most of them are cheaper this time
2) We're bringing and selling Willrad books - cheaper than they will be available on the site later this month
3) There is the possibility of NEW and DIFFERENT robot paintings

Ridiculously big thanks go out to Ryn who brought me and the Chapel Hill Comics cool-as-hell owners together at her and Jason's kickass Halloween party (First wave of Jason's photos here).

See you there, or see you square?
