			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Oh man, this week is going to be crazy! Tomorrow, or rather today (since its early morning), I&#8217;m seeing Beach House with a bunch of buddies of mine. It&#8217;ll be a nice treat after a long day. I have a big essay due, along with a poster to accompany it. This is what I did, based on Art Nouveau and the Vienna Secession:</p>
<p><a href="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/gdhistory-small.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-108" title="gdhistory small" src="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/gdhistory-small.jpg" alt="gdhistory small" width="386" height="500" /></a></p>
<p>I didn&#8217;t have a lot of time but I worked hard on keeping it nice and simple. I only wish I had more time to fix those atrocious hands. I was worried about not finishing everything in time, but I just spoke to a few buddies of mine who haven&#8217;t even started, so I&#8217;m feeling fairly confident.</p>
<p>Work is good, school is good life is good!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Okay, so I&#8217;m sorry that I haven&#8217;t written anything since Sept 13. It&#8217;s actually sad really, that my own mother asked me why I&#8217;m not blogging. So I took that as a sign, to make a little room and show what what I&#8217;ve been up to. School is mainly the thing that&#8217;s keeping me away from doing anything enjoyable and second year is a lot harder than I expected. Enough said on that.</p>
<p>Now, first thing is first. I&#8217;ve been doing some more things for Canzine (which is only a week away, holy crap!) Here are some sneak peek preview photos of what I&#8217;m going to have at my table:</p>
<p><a href="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/whimsy1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-92" title="whimsy1" src="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/whimsy1.jpg" alt="whimsy1" width="640" height="236" /></a><a href="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/box2.jpg"></a></p>
<p><a href="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/box2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-90" title="box2" src="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/box2.jpg" alt="box2" width="640" height="236" /></a><a style="text-decoration: none;" href="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/box1.jpg"></a></p>
<p><a style="text-decoration: none;" href="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/box1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-89" title="box1" src="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/box1.jpg" alt="box1" width="640" height="236" /></a><br />
<a href="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/button.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-91" title="button" src="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/button.jpg" alt="button" width="640" height="236" /></a>H&#8217;okay, so first image is a sneak peak at my second zine. It&#8217;s really small, 2&#8243; x 2&#8243; folded, and 2&#8243; x 10&#8243; when spread out. It&#8217;s double sided, again, just illustration. I will also have large prints of the main illustration for sale ( 4&#8243;x17&#8243; so short, but wide).</p>
<p>Second and third are just two of the 6 boxes that I hand painted and will also be selling.</p>
<p>Fourth photo is buttons! Many, many, many buttons, which again, you&#8217;ll find at my table! So please come say hi!</p>
<p>Last week I had a small part in a art exhibit called Xpression against Oppression at University of Toronto. I&#8217;m not sure how big the exposure is/was, but any exposure is good exposure. My friends <a href="http://myraphan.com" target="_blank">Myra</a>, Mimi and Guru were also showing. Here are some shots from the opening:</p>
<p><a href="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/artopen2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-86" title="artopen2" src="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/artopen2.jpg" alt="artopen2" width="640" height="308" /></a><a href="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/artopen4.jpg"></a></p>
<p><a href="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/artopen4.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-88" title="artopen4" src="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/artopen4.jpg" alt="artopen4" width="640" height="308" /></a><a href="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/artopen1.jpg"></a></p>
<p><a href="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/artopen1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-85" title="artopen1" src="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/artopen1.jpg" alt="artopen1" width="640" height="308" /></a><a href="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/artopen3.jpg"></a></p>
<p><a href="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/artopen3.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-87" title="artopen3" src="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/artopen3.jpg" alt="artopen3" width="640" height="308" /></a></p>
<p>Apparently none of them know how to look at the camera (From Top: Group, Mimi, Myra, Guru). Before the show we went for delicious Chinese food at a surprisingly clean place in China Town. I will return again.</p>
<p>Finally, because <a href="http://jeanniephan.com">Jeannie</a> asked, these are the business cards I ordered awhile back:</p>
<p><a href="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/businesscards1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-93" title="businesscards1" src="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/businesscards1.jpg" alt="businesscards1" width="640" height="236" /></a></p>
<p>There! It&#8217;s 2:26 a.m and I am watching infomercials and I am so ready to buy the Bullet Extreme! I need sleep!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So today was my second last day of class. For our final project we picked a word from an envelope (mine was moveable) and then we had to design/illustrate/compose 20 different images that tie in with the word. I am quite happy with the way mine turned out and I decided to share with you six of my favourite ones:<br />
<a href="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/bestofmovable.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-62" title="bestofmovable" src="http://martaryczko.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/bestofmovable.jpg" alt="bestofmovable" width="640" height="423" /></a></p>
<p>It always interests me how my digital designs differ from my hand-drawn drawings. I&#8217;m not sure if that is a good thing or not and I&#8217;m wondering if I should incorporate the same style throughout the different media I use? Hmm.</p>
<p>Last week I attended the Passion Pit show. They were pretty good, but the opening band, The Grates, stole the show in my opinion. Patience, the lead singer was smiling throughout the entire set and was bouncing along to every single song. She gave off such a great energy and you couldn&#8217;t help but smile back. After the show we actually go to meet them and take some pictures, but according to my sister, we all look like sweaty hell, so I will spare you hehe. Here&#8217;s a video for Aw Yeah, enjoy!</p>

<p>I also went home to my parents for the weekend, meaning that all I have been doing is eating and playing Wii with my sister.</p>
<p>Still no job, just rejections.</p>
