New Work by Parskid
August 15th through September 8th, 2008
Parskid was born and raised in the Pacific Northwest where he draws inspiration from his childhood, the weather, nature, fantasy and folklore. He experiments with paint, plush and digital mediums.

His work has been exhibited in many cities in the United States including LA and NYC and abroad in Australia, Taiwan, Spain and the UK. His work has been published in Hi-Frustose, Art Prostitute, Cool'eh, Beautiful/Decay, Dot Dot Dash, Pictoplasma 2 and Monstaah!. When he's not painting, he enjoys dripping Marsh ink, spraying Rustoleum paint and playing by the train tracks.

a bit of shop stuff...
The shelves at pulp are brimming with paper-ie goodness -- new to the space this month are new pocket journals from Elum, matchbook notepads (perfect for purses!) from Egg Press and the new journals and cards sets from Allymoon have finally arrived! Oh -- and I almost forgot, I have a new pinhole camera in stock... along with a great rubber band powered model airplane kit!

I've also got some great new gear from Queen Bee Creations -- a few more styles of the JetPack lap top bags are due next week, along with their awesome new Hip Holsters that have just been made available. Rebecca over at Queen Bee has recently redesigned the way their wallets will look... they are phasing out the old styles -- so if you're fond of the current look, this will be the last batch available in the shop.

On the book shelf -- I've recently got in a great Marcel Dzama collection of prints, a few more copies of Mark Ryden's Fushigi Circus and The Woodbook -- published in 14 volumes the original book was assembled by Romeyn Beck Hough between 1888 and 1913 in what still remains a stunning and unparalleled achievement. It is a work of breathtaking beauty that has set the standard for the study of trees and wood. TASCHEN's Woodbook reproduces, in painstaking facsimile, all of the specimen pages from the original volumes.
