Trades

free stuff for me!

Occasionally, people send stuff back to me (that isn't money). Here's some of the things I got in return after I mailed out a free painting.

Another pittsburgh artist sent me a colorful square artwork. His name is Joe. MySpace made this meeting possible.		Yep. Someone sent me booze.
A collage depicting some uneasy feelings about time. It was sent to me from Marty Gordon.		An artist named Carl Oxley III aka Popartmonkey made this trade with me. It's titled "Best Bunny Ever".
Coudal.com does what they call the "Swap Meat" where they accept anything in the mail from anyone and they'll mail back something in return. I sent them a painting of meat and they sent back all this stuff. The T-shirt says, "reading is good for you" and has a picture of a guy on the toilet. They also sent some buttons, a sticker, a custom deck of cards and some bubble gum.		A watercolor titled "North Dakota, Depression Era" by Robin Moore
This is somewhere in Germany. Sweet! Thanks Marco :)		Danger: This game is like crack. Play with care.
Riki Takaoka sent me these valentines cards. The medium is india ink and they're really lovely. His style is cute, delicate and bold all at the same time.		The Daughter Earth company gave me an art print of one of their t-shirt designs. You should check out their merchandise. They use all organic and earth-friendly techniques. Very cool.
Some prints from Natasha Guimond		Bryan Brinkman sent me a couple DVD's of his animations. It was a welcome diversion.
This little guy's name is Wenddell Feit.		A scan of a sketchbook page, a homemade valentine and a personalized envelope from L Winkler
A guy that works at iRobot sent me a roomba in return for a robot painting. How cool! And red is the perfect color.		100 cents worth of origami
I sent a painting to the Orangutan Outreach at redapes.org and in return, they made me the adoptive parent of these adorable orangutans! Their names are Lomon, Grendon, Fio and Kesi. I'm a proud parent.
