Earlier this week, I noticed Kathie Olivas updated her flickr with the image located above. I was immediately intrigued and dozens of questions arose. Who is Jack? Who is Lucky? Will this be released in resin or vinyl? When can I get one of these? Why can’t I get any answers?!! And then, like magic, [...]
Here is a very downscaled and highly edited list of the items I really want from SDCC. Thankfully, to a certain degree, due to the economy, there aren’t many releases this year. At the end of the post I’ll add up how much all of this would cost me if I was there. First on [...]
I’ll start off by saying that I’ve never really been into Kaiju. In case you’re not sure what kaiju is, it literally means monster or strange beast. Therefore, it’s safe to assume that kaiju figures tend to be monsters. Well, though I’ve never really been into kaiju– this summer, Super7 is at the top of [...]
Just spotted this new original piece on Kathie Olivas’ flickr, and I was so blown away by it, I had to share. I’m sure we all know I’m a huge fan, and with works like the piece above, how could I deny her my fandom? One of the reasons I’m a fan of Kathie’s works [...]
KIDNAPPING CAITLYNN – watch more funny videos Jensen from G1988 posted this video on their blog earlier today. The primary reason why he posted it was because it has a large canvas piece created by Kathie Olivas and Brandt Peters. The canvas is actually a “pivotal” moment in the short film. I, unlike Jensen, have [...]
Hi! It seems like ages since I’ve posted and for once it has nothing to do with me being lazy. I went to Canada last week with my middle school and high school students to participate in a series of Basketball tournaments. My little ones lost, both male and female, but both Varsity teams won!! [...]
Sketchels? It’s the first time I hear [read] the word and am quickly become acquainted with what it offers me. Sketchel, it seems, is Jeremyville’s own line of messenger bags– btw, messenger bags are my favorite types of bags. I gather from Charuca, who we know has uber-kawaii styled characters, that he’s doing something similar [...]
I’m in a real dilemma. It seems 3 shows are opening the same night, and I don’t know which 2 to attend. I’m pushing it by planning to attend 2 openings, but I know I’m definitely not missing Kathie Olivas’ Uninvited Guests show at MPH– but she’s also going to have some works in Opera [...]
Have you submitted your photo to October Toys’ contest? Don’t remember what it’s about? You seriously have to pay attention people. In order to get a chance to win the exclusive Dragon Con Aubrie, you need to post a photo of yourself with your Scavengers collection. I have a feeling I’m going to get disqualified, [...]
Finally!! I am going to stop by KidRobot tomorrow to check out Kathie Olivas’ live painting– but it’s official! MPH has just announced on their boards that they will be hosting “Uninvited Guests” a mixed media show put on by Kathie herself. My face is already in smiling overload mode. I’ve been waiting to see [...]
Oh Kathie, it’s like, you heard me beg for more of your stuff (at affordable prices) and made it happen. I love you, seriously. Alright, maybe I’m in love with your work, I’ll stop creeping you out now. Anyway, it’s officially been annouced, MindStyle will be release Series 2 of Kathie’s beloved Scavengers, and it [...]
Ladies and Gents, mark your calendars! On September 25th, Kathie Olivas– female artist extraordinaire will be having a LIVE painting at KidRobot NY. What does that mean? That I am so there!! Earlier this year I’d missed Tara McPherson’s live painting, but not this time. I refuse to miss it! Kathie will be working on [...]
Hey!! Pay attention. Someone has been quite kick-ass and left a comment that contained news of a contest OctoberToys is having. What’s it involve? The ever so lovely and sophisticated Kathie Olivas’ exclusive Dragon Con Scavenger. How can you enter? All you’ve got to do is take a photo with your current collection of Scavengers. [...]
Well, I am quite grateful that MINDstyle will be producing a second series of Kathie’s Scavenger Children figures. I am in love with Kathie Olivas, I believe I profess my love for her every time I get a chance to write about her, and was delighted when her first series was announced. I unfortunately thought [...]
Their official press release has arrived! More like TRE totally beat me to the punch line and posted about them. But it’s true, Kathie Olivas’ Scavengers have finally arrived. The release date has been set for June 20th with a SRP of $11.99– there is a need to complain though. When I first spoke to [...]
It is necessary to state this before I continue with this post: I am in love with Kathie Olivas. Not just Kathie though, I’m in lust for Tara McPherson too. Both are very strong and amazing artists in general, but in the vinyl world they rule. I had the pleasure of getting Kathie’s sketch in [...]
