My Brother, While an Asshole, Is Awesome.

I mean, just look at this mixed media journal cover he designed and made for me:


The graffiti writing is hard to read, but if you look hard enough, you can see that it says "dreaming among the starz."

The question is now, can I fill the inside with something as pretty as the outside?

I don't even buy pretty journals anymore, they scare the shit out of me. I only write in ugly, single-ruled, spiral notebooks....then tear out what I've written and throw it into the wood stove...go figure.

must admit though, this is a beautiful gift

did i really just spell throw as through?

i need to go back to english class to learn, not to teach.

he used the face from some cut out and traced over it, not sure about the buildings, but the paints are all oil. i can tell he modge-podged or glued or something a couple layers underneath the paint.
