I wanted to wish everyone a safe, fun, and crazy Halloween. If you’re having trouble finding vegan candy to hand out to the kiddy poos, The Natural Candy Store has lots of great products and don’t for the Go Max Go! Candy Bars (which I still have yet to try). Also Larabar sells variety bite size bars, which is great for raw vegans. Remember to keep in mind that not all sugar is vegan. Hope you all have a funfun time on Saturday!

I’m sorry to say, but my art prints are going to be put on hiatus. Possibly mid-November is when I’ll put them up for sale. There’s some personal issues that I have to deal with. In the mean time, you can still see what I’m doing in and out out of my studio on my Flickr page. You may email me if you have any questions or requests.

There’s been huge hoopla about Daiya Cheese for a while and I’ve been curious about what it tastes like. Some absolutely love it and others strongly hate it, so I wanted to try it myself. I ventured over to the Glendale Whole Foods and ordered myself a vegan pizza.

It’s a cute little pizza that smells unbelievably mouthwatering just like a pizza should be. I inspected this new cheese, and yes. It does melt. And melt. And melt. I took my slice and bit into it not knowing what to expect. My first reaction: weird! Really. It’s strange. The texture is like vegenaise that’s collected some water and mucus pureed together. The taste: creamy acid reflux (and you can quote me on that!). I wasn’t sure what I should do with the pizza, so I finished my slice and gave the rest to my mum.

My rating: 2/5 stars. Bravo for the melting, but it’s just too strange for my taste. Although people have been telling me it tastes good as a grilled cheese sandwich. I think I’m too scared to try it (!).

If you haven’t already heard or seen, I picked up a new friend that tags along wherever I go. No, it’s not a puppy. It’s a roaming gnome, named Winslow!  He’s a bit cranky sometimes, but completely lovable. He’s no bigger than a small shrub and ways three small rocks. Born in Devinshireton, UK, he decided to travel the world and see new places. He requested that he get his own twitter page and so I set one up for him. There you can follow him and find out what it’s like seeing through an eyes of a gnome. It’s not easy, I tell you.

Welcome aboard my new travelling buddy, Winslow!

Happy October! I’ve been locked up in my studio painting away and here are a couple sneak peeks of my new art. In about a few weeks, prints will be on sale of  my paintings online and I can’t wait until they’re yours!
