Pinafore Print Collective.

I met Sarah Scott of Pinafore Print Collective through Etsy. Sarah is one of three women who make up Pinafore, she along with Alynn Guerra and Rebecca Rodriguez have created a shop in which they create work individually as well as collectively. Now I have been an artist for over twenty years now and I know how hard it is to leave the ego behind and work as a unit when it comes to making art. Check them out they have a lot to offer in the way of thinking about why and how we make art.

Change your world.

Swarm Clarification.

Sporozoan Swarm

I believe art should be in everyone’s home and to do that it needs to be affordable. This is my reasoning for making The Sporozoan Swarm. The Sporozoan Swarm is a piece of grand scale with a projected population of 50,000. It is one piece that can be broken down into smaller clusters and find a place on thousands of walls around the world. An art lover can, for a very reasonable price have a commanding art object in their home that is part of a larger whole. Thanks to the use of negative space that naturally occurs in hanging a Sporozoan Swarm it only takes 20 or so pieces to adorn a poster size space on a wall and best of all you can break it up into many smaller Sporozoan Swarms around the house and because Swarms are modular it is easy to increase the size of your piece of The Swarm. One can start out with a Tiny or Minuscule Swarm and build on it as you have space and or finances. The Swarm is adaptable and ever changing because The Swarm is made up of many pieces of all different sizes most of which are printed or drawn on both sides The Keeper can rearrange or turn their pieces over to create a new piece of art over and over again. The Swarm can also be hung through corners and around other transitions on The Keepers wall.

Become a Keeper today and find yourself being part of a grand piece of art.
